When you have a child with food allergies, you’re always thinking about the things your child misses out on. For me, it means thinking about all of those treats I eagerly anticipated as a child. While I loved and still love all sorts of fruit and vegetables, there is definitely something to be said about cookies and cake. I don’t always have time to prepare cookies for my youngest son but I don’t want him to ever miss out. Unfortunately, it isn’t easy to find baked goods that do not contain milk, eggs, and soy. On the occasion that the food doesn’t have those ingredients, they are often baked in facilities that have the danger of cross-contamination. Luckily for us, more and more products are coming out that Alex can eat. One of the bakeries offering yummy goodies is Home Free.
Home Free sent us some cookies for my youngest son to try. I had to laugh when his big brother wanted to get in on those cookies too. This was the first time that my older son has showed any interest in his little brother’s food. It’s a testament to how delicious these cookies look…and taste. Alex enjoyed eating them and was so proud that his bro wanted some ‘baby’ cookies too. Without the worry of a reaction, I was happy to see them both enjoying the treat.
Home Free bakes their products in a dedicated kitchen with organic ingredients. All of their baked goods are free of eggs, dairy, and nuts. (While my son is able to eat foods that contains soy lecithin, you may want to check with your doctor if you’re dealing with a soy allergy.) Home Free offers cookies, mini cookies, coffee cakes, a cookbooks, and a variety of ingredients.
