My Guide to Gluten Free Advent Calendars is here!!!!! Hopefully this guide make it easy to know which advent calendars are gluten free, so you don’t stand in the shop and feel totally overwhelmed with which one to pick, like I always do!
Or, if someone wants to buy you an advent calendar for you, you can send this guide to them so they know which ones are gluten free.
It’s divided into 3:
- Gluten Free, Contains Dairy
- Gluten Free, Dairy Free
- NOT Gluten Free – the ones to avoid
*As always, please double check the ingredients for yourself incase anything has changed. I rely on the ingredients info on the supermarkets website and they do make mistakes from time to time**
Suprises/Changes from 2022
- Reese’s – regular chocolate one is a may contain but they have one with mini cups and pretzels is weirdly ok! (pics below)
- Nomo – doesn’t look like there’s a caramel one this year 🙁
