ASDA: Gluten Free Christmas Products 2022

25th November 2020
Blog post

Here’s a selection of all the gluten free goodies I’ve found in Asda’s Christmas range this year! Its broken into 4:

  • 1) “Normal Aisle” savoury
  • 2) “Normal Aisle” sweet
  • 3) Gluten Free Aisle savoury
  • 4) Gluten Free Aisle sweet

Hope there’s some yummy new finds in here for you!!


BONUS: AT THE BOTTOM, you’ll see two extra sections for 2022. 1) “Things you don’t need in the free from aisle” – Asda Christmas food specific and 2) “Easy mistakes to make” – places you might not expect to contain gluten, but does. Asda specific too.


*As always, please check all of the ingredients labels for yourself incase something has changed. I’ve relied heavily on Asda’s website for ingredients info and sometimes they (or I!) make a mistake*


Changes from 2021

Every year, Asda seems to be the supermarket to bring out the most new stuff. From hash brown stars and a bag of mixed party food and Christmas flavoured cookies to ice cream. They’ve gone for a red and gold packaging this year, so even the products that are the same as previous years, they look a bit different.

There’s too much new stuff to share here and you’ll have to flick through the pictures below!

Easy Mistakes to Make

These are bits I found on their website that you might that would be gluten free, but are not! The ones you could easily gluten yourself on!!

  • Turkey Joint – there’s a very similar box that doesn’t contain gluten but this one does!
  • Pigs in Blankets – most of them are gluten free, these ones aren’t!
  • Sprinkles – the snowflake ones contain wheat
  • Reindeer/Santa Choc – both are a may contain
  • Macaroons – a “may contain” this year

Things you don’t need in the free from aisle

*NEW FOR 2022 – some of the products are in the free from aisle because they are milk/egg/something else free, nothing to do with gluten. This is a list of similar products to those in the free from aisle of Tesco that you can buy in the “normal” aisle if you’re ‘just’ gluten free to save you a fortune.

  1. Free From Mozzarella sticks £13.33/kg -> swap for Normal Aisle, Fresh Mozzarella Sticks £11.46/kg I have no idea why these exist, when their normal aisle ones are gf too (both contain dairy).
  2. Gluten Free Extra Special Stuffing £13.33/kg for DRIED!-> roughly £8.50/kg for any of the fresh options below
  3. Free From Chocolate Coins £1.60/100g -> normal aisle chocolate coins 77p ish/100g
