Perhaps it’s the Southern Girl in me, but I love giving gifts. Birthdays and gift-giving holidays don’t come around often enough for me though, so I’ve decided to create more occasions to give fun stuff to my friends!
In my gluten-free world, the release of this video is excuse enough for me! I’m really excited about this video, as it represents a TON of baking and time photographing my recipes. The funny part is that it’s just the tip of my baking iceburg, so to speak, but it’s still a lot of food!
I hope you enjoy watching it as much as I do – when I can’t think of what I want to make next, I always get hungry from something in this video that gives me a good idea for my next meal or treat!
Have a look, and leave a comment telling me which food you see that’s your favorite! Leave another comment telling me which testimonial at the end of the video is your favorite. Each of these comments (you can leave up to 2) will enter you to win goodies!!! (I suppose, technically, you could get a friend to comment for you too, increasing your odds of winning … if they agree to share the prize!)

One 5-pound bag of my All Purpose Flour that you can use to make ANY of the foods in this video

It seems chickpeas are on the brain. I made my first Channa Masala from scratch yesterday (it's wonderful paired... http://t.co/BbxO7G17Kr

We are SO grateful for your flour. My daughter and I are Celiac and I am the family matriarch, so it is Very Important to be able to cook great tasting food for EVERYONE! Thank you so much for helping me keep the favorite family recipes edible within the family!!
What a legacy to be able to give my grandchildren my mother’s and grandmother’s specialties without worrying about Gluten. Thank you!!
Sue said: on July 2, 2011
What a beautiful montage! You got me with the strawberry muffins!
Rae W., from Philadelphia, PA, with everything she bakes coming out tasting superb. Not someone I know, but a review I’d trust.
Renee said: on July 2, 2011
Love the pics of the chocolate chip cookies
Deb McKinney said: on July 2, 2011
Really looking forward to making some awesome GF graham crackers this weekend so we can all enjoy authentic tasting S,mores over the 4th of July weekend! Thank you for that opportunity!
Chef Froggie said: on July 2, 2011
Just about everything in the video would be food that I love, but if I had to narrow it down, I’d say the sandwich bread and doughnuts (though I still have yet to actually try making doughnuts).
Jessica said: on July 2, 2011
I really miss take out pizza.
Deb McKinney said: on July 2, 2011
What kind of bread is in the final photo of the video? It looks wonderful.
Renee said: on July 2, 2011
Totally agree with Stepahnie – your flour and cookie mix have been a life saver!
Jessica said: on July 2, 2011
I liked Michelle S. testimonial because I did the same thing, buying all sorts of flours that tasted bad and I didn’t know what to do with them.
julie dobson said: on July 2, 2011
Loved the pretzels. I have not been able to spend the time trying to make soft ones.
I like the testimony about wishing she knew about your product before she tried 4 other all purpose. I can so relate to that grainy texture with some we have tried.
Julie
Teresa said: on July 2, 2011
I really miss convenience foods- fast food, frozen pizza.
Teresa said: on July 2, 2011
I can’t wait to try your flours!
Dierdre Smith said: on July 2, 2011
Everything looked beautiful, but my favorite were the crazy looking gingerbread men. Adorable!
Jill Wilkins said: on July 2, 2011
Mmmmmmm those soft pretzels look wonderful!!!
Jill Wilkins said: on July 2, 2011
I miss trying out new restraunts and new things with my husband.
Erin said: on July 2, 2011
I was so glad that I found your flour, after trying many recipes with complete failure after having to mix all the different flours I made chocolate chip cookies that were amazing. My children who are not GF could not tell the difference. My husband who knew they were GF said they were the best he had ever eaten. Thank you so much for all your great recipes.
abby williams said: on July 2, 2011
The flour makes all the difference!!!! With the right flour Jules makes the old favorites possible!
April said: on July 2, 2011
Oh my… I would love to be able to make a “SOFT” gluten free bread, such as the one in your video. The pizza crust comes in a close second.
Lisa Rateike said: on July 2, 2011
Wow, that all looked great! Can’t wait to try to make some of those
April said: on July 2, 2011
Favorite testimony: “My family had their mouths hanging open when they saw me eat cake. They never guessed they were eating gluten free.”
Pamela, from Jules’ blog
Dawn said: on July 2, 2011
I love your flour! It’s a wonderful product! We use it all the time. I loved your Apple Pie – beautiful pictures in the video!
Dawn said: on July 2, 2011
My favorite testiomonial was Michelle H. from IA, about purchasing all the different GF flours (because I did the same thing). So thankful for Jules GF Flour now!!
Linda S. said: on July 2, 2011
Those Challah look divine!
Sandy Munn said: on July 2, 2011
All of the recipes look yummy!! There are several favorites there….it would be hard to pick just one!!
Sandy Munn said: on July 2, 2011
I agree with Michelle H.’s testimonial. I also bought alot of different flours to bake with until I found your flour. Thank you so much!
Lynda said: on July 2, 2011
Since I’m on a diet, this was really difficult to watch. I can’t wait to get this weight lost so I can make some of those delicious things again! I love your flour.
Natalie Scott said: on July 2, 2011
On your video I saw cake… I miss that the most. Especially carrot cake… your cake’s look so moist and delicious!
Nicole said: on July 2, 2011
Yay for the contest. I’m running low on my flour!
Chris said: on July 2, 2011
Your picture of the hamburgers renewed my interest in making your buns. I gave up after not finding the tins very easily. Maybe I’ll just use my oversized muffin pans! Btw- I love the music behind all the pics; who is the artist?
Natalie Scott said: on July 2, 2011
My fave testimony and one I can relate to it “I wish I would have tried it before investing in other flours” – So did I, because even though I have to pay for shipping, it’s SO very worth it – every penny and then some. You have brought normality back to my life and I no longer feel bad or sorry for me when I see other people eating yummies! =)
Jules said: on July 20, 2011
Natalie – that’s exactly how I felt before! Glad to have helped you!
Nancy Wiley said: on July 2, 2011
I have missed Mexican food, and ALL desserts as I was quite the baker before. Three of my children and I are gluten/dairy/soy/egg/nut free now, and I LOVE your flour! It’s helped us to not feel so isolated!
Thank you!!!
Jules said: on July 20, 2011
Nancy – I’m so glad my flour has helped your family! It’s so much easier with just one flour for every recipe, for everyone in your family!!!
Kristen said: on July 2, 2011
Looks too good to be true. Baking is always a “cross your fingers and hold your breath experience for me.” Hoping to win so that I can know the secret too.
Kristen said: on July 2, 2011
My favorites are pierogies and wrapped asparagus. I like the testimonial about other flours “smelling weird and tasting like sand.”
Nancy Wiley said: on July 2, 2011
My fave at the end was that “this is the best gluten free flour. I use it cup for cup as a replacement for wheat flour….it is delicious!” by Cheryl W. facebook
Cheryl Bischoff said: on July 2, 2011
Oh yah! The rolls that looked like cinnamon/carmel rolls. Also the cheesecake with berries on top.
Vanessa said: on July 2, 2011
Love the soft pretzels!! Need o find an afternoon to make them. Thank you so much for all you do for us Gluten free eaters!!
Vanessa said: on July 2, 2011
my fav test is the woman buying and trying so many flours and then to find yours. That is so me. Your the best!!
Jackie said: on July 2, 2011
Favorite food shown: Scones…..and of course, the Pumpkin Pie! (I couldn’t pick just one!)
Janine Brune said: on July 2, 2011
Great video. It makes it okay to look at yummy food again without thinking about how sick it will make me.
Love Jule’s Flour
Janine
Jackie said: on July 2, 2011
Favorite Testamonial: Michelle S. Like her, I tried some gawdawful ones before literally stumbling on yours, Jules. You HAVE been a lifesaver—Nothing compares to Jules!
Janine Brune said: on July 2, 2011
I’ll post this to my celiac facebook sites.
Jules said: on July 20, 2011
Thanks for sharing!
Jennifer said: on July 2, 2011
I was just diagnosed 3 weeks ago, and have already tried a variety of mixes, all of which disappointed me. I just placed my first order for your products (highly recommended by a friend). I can’t wait to make some of the items in your video – the apple pie and pizza left me with cravings…..
Jules said: on July 20, 2011
Jennifer – so glad you’ve gotten good advice from friends! I wish you all the best on your GF journey!
Nancy said: on July 2, 2011
Gingerbread man cookies are my favorite. Always reminds me of the holidays.
Paula’s testimony from Jules’ blog is my favorite testimonial.
Karol said: on July 2, 2011
Everything looks so amazing. I don’t think anything I make could ever look that good lol. But the ones that stood out for me were the lemon dessert (which looks mouth watering) and the soft pretzels, which I have been craving for ages.
Jules said: on July 20, 2011
Karol – the pretzels are easier than you’d think! You must give them a try soon!
Karol said: on July 2, 2011
And I loved Michelle Humboldt’s testimony.
Sandy said: on July 2, 2011
I love the photos of the cinnamon rolls and the pizza, both of which I have made with your amazing flour!
Jules said: on July 20, 2011
OOh Sandy, you picked two of my most favorites!!!
Sandy said: on July 2, 2011
My favorite testiomonial was Michelle H. from IA, about purchasing all the different GF flours. I did them same thing. I let my son use the other flours to play with and do experiments with;)
Jules said: on July 20, 2011
Sandy – smart idea! I recently threw out a bunch of individual flours from the back recesses of one of my cabinets (they’d apparently been there for years, I’m ashamed to admit!). I should have given them to the kids to play with instead!
Shelley Orenstein said: on July 2, 2011
It is hard to pick just one of the scrumptious foods seen in the video. I have been enjoying your flour almost from the beginning of my celiac days 2 1/2 years ago. I have tried using combo “flours”, but the cakes did not come out as good as your recipes and flour.
Jane Bromberg said: on July 2, 2011
Your flour, Jules, is truly delicious. Cup for cup it is as satisfying as wheat flour used to be. Your input on this website, your willingness to share and to support each of our questions and concerns, makes this site one that I return to again and again. Thank you for being you!
Jules said: on July 20, 2011
That’s the sweetest, Jane! Thank YOU so much!!!
Elizabeth Lee said: on July 2, 2011
THis flower is awesome! Makes the best sugar cookies! The whole family loves them!
Elizabeth Lee said: on July 2, 2011
Making a red white and blue fruit desert pizza with your cookie dough recipe. Can’t wait!
Wendy said: on July 3, 2011
This is a great montage of real food and I know it’s all true. Finding your flour was one of the high points of my year last year. I was able to make real egg noodles from my family recipe and no one could tell they were gluten free. I tell all my friends and family how awesome Jules Gluten Free Flour is. I can truly use it in all our recipes without fear of a flop.
Jules said: on July 20, 2011
So glad to hear it Wendy! Do share your egg noodle recipe … another reader was asking for one recently but I haven’t had time to play around with egg noodles yet!
Katie said: on July 3, 2011
Your beer bread is amazing!!! We use it all the time. For dinner tonight we had BLTs made with your bread of course!! Thank you for being a blessing to all of us!
Jules said: on July 20, 2011
You’re so sweet Katie! I love that recipe too – it’s got such a pleasant flavor. I’d forgotten how much I liked beer bread until I started experimenting with some of the new GF beers we’ve been blessed with! I just got some New Planet beer to try and I think I might use it in the beer bread recipe too!
Kim Grams said: on July 3, 2011
We just got our first bag of Jules flour. My celiac daughter is leaving on a youth trip and is coming back on her birthday … I’m going to make her eclairs to surprise her! (I would NOT have attempted this without Jules).
Jules said: on July 20, 2011
Yay Kim! What recipe did you use for eclairs? Do share!!!
Kim Grams said: on July 3, 2011
For myself (I have gluten sensitivity) I can’t decide what to make first … tortillas, french bread, or biscuits!
Kim Grams said: on July 3, 2011
Ooo! And gnocci! Where can I find the recipe for it? It look great in the video!
Jules said: on July 20, 2011
Kim – the gnocchi recipe is in my new cookbook, Free for All Cooking!
Marie taylor said: on July 3, 2011
I want to come live at your house!! – lol. Those soft pretzels looked awesome
Jules said: on July 20, 2011
Marie, we do bake a lot at my house, that’s for sure!
Marie taylor said: on July 3, 2011
Oh yeah, my fave testimonial was the one about with all the different flours and it still tasting like sand…been there many times!!
Tami said: on July 3, 2011
Before having to cook gluten free, everyone said I made the best cookies ever. After finding your flour, now they say I make the best cookies ever. Thanks so much!
Tami said: on July 3, 2011
Jules, you have made it possible to feel normal again. I am so grateful for all you do. Your recipes and flour have made my life so much easier. I enjoy baking again. There’s so much to look forward to. Thanks again!
Jules said: on July 20, 2011
Tami- thanks so much! That totally warms my heart – I am so glad my flour and recipes have made your life easier and tastier!!! There is a lot to look forward to, isn’t there?
Jean Haynes said: on July 3, 2011
I have flour again, it always panics me when I run low of your wonderful flour. Off we go to the kitchen for more good ole goodies. My husband says that he loves your flour too and he isn’t even a g-free-head. hehehe
Jules said: on July 20, 2011
Jean – love it!
cindy said: on July 3, 2011
It all looks AMAZING! Probably my choice would be the tart. I haven’t had a tart since going gf. Great video!
cindy said: on July 3, 2011
I appreciated the testimonial from Rae W. from PA whose said everything she’s baked turns out superb.
jan hill said: on July 3, 2011
Oh my gosh, my mouth was watering just watching your video! I must get me some of your wonderful sounding flour which makes the most delicious looking baked foods. Thanks, Jules!
jan said: on July 3, 2011
I have no favorites…would love to try each and every one of your beautiful desserts, breads, cookies, etc. Would you please come to my house on Cape Cod and make anything for me? Maybe do a demo and invite all my GF friends? That would be wonderful!
Jules said: on July 20, 2011
Sounds great, Jan! Sign me up!
Lisa Loyd said: on July 3, 2011
I am so thankful for your flour and other products!! I thought after 2 years of being the only celiac in the house, I would never be able to have flour based products(cookies, biscuits, my grandmother’s recipe for noodles) again and silently cried on the inside when others were enjoying these normally gluten filled foods. Now, I can make them for everyone and enjoy the simply joy of sharing with my family and feeling like I’m just like them. It’s not the food that you’ve given back, it’s the memories and sharing with my family. And for that I sincerely thank you from the bottom of my heart. Thank you Jules!!
Jules said: on July 20, 2011
Lisa – I have been right where you were and totally understand that feeling. I’m thrilled that you have hope again for sharing food and meals with your family!!!!
Lisa Loyd said: on July 3, 2011
And my favorite item from the video? I have to go with the chocolate chip cookies! I did make them and they are WONDERFUL!! I also used Jules’ cookie mix to make some and they completely blew me away! Oh so good!!! I may have to whip up a batch for my 4th of July party today!! The non-celiacs attending will love them! Or maybe I just won’t share!
Jules said: on July 20, 2011
Lisa – CONGRATULATIONS! You won that adorable Thermador “Do You Cook?” t-shirt!!! Email your address to Support@JulesGlutenFree.com so we can send it to you right away!!!
Barb said: on July 3, 2011
I’d love to make the doughnuts. I haven’t had one since my diagnosis two and a half years ago.
Barb said: on July 3, 2011
Your book on living with Celiac Disease was the first book I read. It saved my sanity. Everything I needed to know right away was addressed in that book. I also have your Nearly Normal cookbook and Free For All Cooking. I made the pumpkin bars vegan style so that my daughter’s room mate would have dessert that she could eat too. They were so good and she was so happy.
Jules said: on July 20, 2011
Barb – I’m so happy my books have been a help to you!
Jennifer said: on July 3, 2011
I had such longing when I saw the big, soft pretzels.
Jennifer said: on July 3, 2011
Love Michele S.’s testimonial. Mouth-feel in GF products is everything so I thought that one really hit home.
Jules said: on July 20, 2011
I agree, Jennifer. The distinct texture of so many GF foods is what I was so important for me to get beyond with my flour and recipes. It’s the best feeling to have people who aren’t GF taste your food and never suspect there’s anything different!
Linda S. said: on July 3, 2011
Favorite comment is Cheryl W’s on Facebook, saying this is the best gluten free flour – she uses it cup for cup as a replacement for wheat flour and it is delicious! BTW, have a Happy 4th of July, Jules!
p.s. – I must say that sandwich w/the sprouts & cheese looks so appealing to me!
Charlene said: on July 3, 2011
Just received my first shipment of your products (flour, cookie and bread mix)! Made chocolate chip cookies and boy, are they delicious! Taste just like the gluten filled ones and no funny after tatse! Can hardly wait to make bread and other goodies this week! Thank you soooo much!!!
Karen said: on July 4, 2011
Hi Jules, Glad you’re out there spreading the word. I’ve been GF for almost 12 years and it’s sooo much better now with all the awareness. Life gets better when you go GF!!
Thanks for all you do!
Karen
Jules said: on July 20, 2011
Thanks Karen! I agree – we’ve come worlds from where we were 12 years ago!!! Yay us!
Suzanne said: on July 5, 2011
I miss those big soft pretzels so much! It’s one of the things I have not yet attempted. Guess that’s what I need to put on my to-do list.
Jules said: on July 20, 2011
Suzanne – the pretzels are easier than you think!! You must try them!
Suzanne said: on July 5, 2011
My favorite testimonial was Michelle S. from Humboldt, IA. I know what she means about trying so many other flours first (all-purpose and self-blended). Nothing compares to your flour. In fact, some people think my “old” recipes are even better now!
Tammie said: on July 6, 2011
Hello Jules…I’ve been using your flour for a little over 2 years (when I got diagnosed) and it’s the ONLY one that works and taste’s good!! Keep up the wonderful work you and your team do. It’s such a pleasure reading your posts and being able to leave some comments…especially when YOU respond back!! HOOT-HOOT Jules!! Well wishes. Tammie
) …
Laura said: on July 6, 2011
Really glad that I found your site. Can’t wait to try out this product. I have only been gluten-free for a few months. \diagonised with Celiacs in Dec. 2010. What I miss the most is baking. I am a baker and it hurts so much to pull out bricks instead of bread.
Laura said: on July 6, 2011
Michelle H is soo right on spot. I have so many flours stored in my refridge. trying to get it ‘right’ Even ended up buying a bigger refrigerator to make room for it all.
Jules said: on July 20, 2011
Laura – hopefully you can clean out that fridge and just use one GF now! Use the extra space for fresh fruits & veggies, hummus, tapanade … all the wonderful additions to your favorite recipes!
Tammie said: on July 6, 2011
…thank YOU…thank YOU…thank YOU…that just about sums it up…
Happy GF days to all and continue the strong fight for GF labels…
Jules said: on July 13, 2011
Tammie – will do!
Jeanne said: on July 6, 2011
Yummy cinnamon rolls!!!
Kimberly said: on July 6, 2011
Beautiful presentation, Jules! You have been busy! I hope you have some kind of a team of bakers! (wouldn’t that be a fun job???) I am a huge sucker for your cornbread, also the pumpkin cornbread muffins in the fall. Recently tried the birthday cake recipe made into cupcakes. Talk about melt in your mouth goodness! Thank you so much for your blog and all your efforts to get the word out regarding those of us with wheat intolerances. I appreciate you!
Jules said: on July 13, 2011
Thank you, Kimberly! That is so sweet! I wish I had a team of bakers to help, but it’s really just me! Pretty clear that I do a LOT of baking, isn’t it?! Maybe I should enlist some help – interested??
Kimberly said: on July 18, 2011
of course!
Kimberly said: on July 6, 2011
I have to agree with Stephanie N. from Iowa! You ARE saving our baking lives! I travel quite a bit and have ordered Jules to be delivered to most places I land. That way, it’s always available! Thanks again!
Jules said: on July 20, 2011
Kimberly – what a fantastic idea! It’s nice to have all you need to make great food, wherever your destination!
Leigh Anne Page said: on July 6, 2011
Very difficult to pick a favorite!! At our house – the blueberry scones and the pumpkin bread are favorites.
Dorie said: on July 6, 2011
The cookies and the muffins are my favorite.
Dorie said: on July 6, 2011
The testimony I liked was the jaw dropping family.
“My family had their mouths hanging open when they saw me eat cake. They never guessed they were eating gluten free.”
Susan said: on July 6, 2011
What a great montage! I loved the look of the berry pie and dumplings. The bread slice on the knife was a great way to show you can have “real” bread. My favorite comments were the first 3 at the end of the video.
I’m so excited to have found your flour so I can start baking again. I can’t wait for my next order to arrive so I can try baking some family favorites for the first time gluten free!
Jill said: on July 6, 2011
I must say that everything you say on the video is correct. I am a baker at heart, passed down from my mother, her mother, etc. and your flour has allowed me to continue to spoil my children with all the favorites I grew up with. My favorite thing to bake is biscuits and with that base, I have been able to expand off that recipe for many other baked goods. The beautiful cake with pink frosting in the video gets me! I have made a red velvet and vanilla cupcakes with your flour. Thanks Jules!
Jill said: on July 6, 2011
The best testimonial you use in the video is about using the one to one replacement. It is important for someone to know how easy it is to buy and use your flour without multiple products and measurements. This really is baking made easy.
Mary Brinton said: on July 6, 2011
Looking over all those yummies, I think those jam-filled tricorn cookies look like my next project, not that I bake a lot of desserts. mmm
Having just had to eat some gluten for the endoscopy I finally got after going gf for 3 mths., I have to say I am all the more thankful for your wonderful, SAFE baking flour! (I am mostly over hurting – now waiting to have energy restored.)
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!
Jules said: on July 13, 2011
Oh Mary, so sorry you had to go through that! I hope you’re feeling so much better already!
Davina said: on July 6, 2011
Thank you so much for making the transition of going gluten free for my family such an easy one!
Wendy said: on July 6, 2011
Your flour has saved my love for baking. When we discovered my son was gluten intolerant I tried baking with the other GF flours out there and was devastated by the results. So I googled “no aftertaste gluten free flour” and your site came up. I’ve been hooked ever since and recommend it to anyone who is GF. Thanks!
Jules said: on July 13, 2011
Wendy – so happy it has made a difference for your baking. I love that you googled “no aftertaste gluten free flour” to find me! That’s classic!!
Davina said: on July 6, 2011
I was told to make a dessert for our 4th of July family party, and I made cupcakes. No one knew they were gluten free until my son and I indulged in them
Thanks again for your wonderful, wonderful products!
Jules said: on July 13, 2011
Davina – that’s so fun!
Kristi said: on July 6, 2011
I love baking – always have! When I had to go gluten free, I thought I would be giving up my goodies. Nope, I don’t anymore. The southern biscuits that you showed in the video are ALWAYS being made in my house…and not by me but by my hubby! The whole family loves them. This video is lovely but eating the food that I love – there is the true love and joy right there
Kristi said: on July 6, 2011
…and pie pie pie…let them eat pie has new meaning when you watch the video!
David Hylton said: on July 6, 2011
I had tried several “all purpose” flours before trying Jules’. I got it at a cooking demo in RTP, NC and have not looked back. I love to bake and experiment, but wish I had the creativity and baking energy she does
Jules said: on July 13, 2011
David – hope to get back to RTP to do a class again someday soon. That’s such a great set-up there and I LOVE the people I meet there!
Helga said: on July 6, 2011
I love the chocolate chip cookies.
You made my mouth water with all these wonderful gluten free foods. Thank you to you Jules for making our Gluten Free world wonderful.
Julie Wyatt said: on July 6, 2011
MMMMMMM Im Hungry!!!
Lisa Rateike said: on July 6, 2011
would really love to win so I can try some of those wonderful looking foods!
Shelley Smith said: on July 6, 2011
i love lemon and thought it was miraculous how great my lemon bars came out with your flour! also, for the holidays we use your flour to make the gravy and everyone says it is so much better tasting and so easy to work with!
Jules said: on July 13, 2011
Shelley – yay! That’s fantastic!
Rachel said: on July 6, 2011
I am so looking forward to chewy delicious soda bread!
Rachel said: on July 6, 2011
I think the best testimonial is that about the chocolate chip cookies. I have not found a flour yet that works.
I also liked the one where the family is fooled! Ha ha!
Jennifer C said: on July 6, 2011
The cinnamon rolls are my favorite – yum!
Jennifer C said: on July 6, 2011
I love the testimonial about the flours tasting like sand. I have been there!
Heather said: on July 6, 2011
Everything looks absolutely delicious! Can’t believe it was all gluten-free! Since diagnosis with celiac disease in December 2010, I have really missed “convenient” foods like pizza, hamburgers w/buns, doughnuts…I was amazed to see a doughnut on the video!
Heather said: on July 6, 2011
The testimonial that struck me the most was the woman who was able to eat cake with her family…I haven’t enjoyed a piece of birthday cake at my daughters’ birthdays, neices and nephews, other family members birthday parties since my recent diagnosis. It would be wonderful to bake a delicious gluten-free birthday cake that my whole family can enjoy, and I can also partake in enjoying a part of the celebration.
Jules said: on July 13, 2011
Heather – I hope you make a delicious GF cake again very soon! There is just NO good reason you should EVER miss out on cake when celebrating special occasions!
Heather said: on July 18, 2011
Hi Jules!
Amazing you responded on my birthday…July 13th! My mother-in-law found a chocolate birthday cake for me to enjoy…it was different, no frosting…would love to try your flour to make a moist, delicious cake with frosting!
Thanks for your note!
Heather
Jules said: on July 20, 2011
What perfect timing!!! Glad you had a special (and delicious) day!
Corrine said: on July 6, 2011
Your soft pretzels look amazing! I agree with Michelle S. I bought a TON of flours and made my own mixes before I discovered your flour. I constantly tell everyne I know who is gluten free about your flour! It passed my test when I was able to make my great grandmother’s banana bread.
Jules said: on July 13, 2011
Corrine – I’m so glad you can make your great grandma’s banana bread again! There is nothing like being able to keep those in the (gluten-free) family!!! Thanks for spreading the word about my flour too, and for helping others to enjoy their favorites again!
Corrine said: on July 6, 2011
The cinnamon buns looked delicious too!
Tina Smith said: on July 6, 2011
Oh those pies look soo flaky, I can’t wait to try your product. My 5 kids are going to scream when they see that I’ve made pie again for them!!
I can’t wait to see those smiling faces as they eat the pies!
Tina Smith said: on July 6, 2011
My favorite testimonial was Michelle H. She purchased all the different GF flours, I did the same when we found out we couldn’t eat wheat.
There are some terrible, some grainy, and some just unworkable. I can’t wait to try yours, all I’ve heard are great things!
Katie Squires said: on July 6, 2011
I love the apple pie!
Katie Squires said: on July 6, 2011
I agree with Michelle S from Humboldt, IA. I wish I had tried the Jules gf flour before wasting time and money on other yucky flours.
Nikki Volk said: on July 7, 2011
My favorite thing was probably the cheesecake but everything else came in a close second.
Nikki Volk said: on July 7, 2011
Thank you for everything you do, you have truly been a godsend to me and my family. I haven’t made anything yet whether its been one of your recipes or one of mine using your flour that hasn’t got rave reviews. I can relate to the one that has tried everything else with no luck, that was me in the beginning. My husband says that I bake more now than before I was diagnosed. Thanks again for all that you do for celiacs.
Jules said: on July 13, 2011
Nikki – thank you so much! I’m so glad to have been able to help your family!!
Wendy Cockerham said: on July 7, 2011
Your flour is great! I have used it for several years to make goodies for my celiac kid. Gluten free for 6.5 years.
Wendy Cockerham said: on July 7, 2011
I recommend your flour to every celiac I meet!
Jennifer said: on July 7, 2011
Everything looks great… but, DONUTS! yum!
Jennifer said: on July 7, 2011
I liked Cheryl’s testimonial from FB… It is a fabulous flour and I love that it is cup-for-cup replacement for wheat flour. Thanks, Jules.
Debbie said: on July 7, 2011
Hi Jules,
I am a private cook and more and more requests are coming in for providing gluten free meals for those that love the old favorites but just don’t know how to enjoy them without the gluten. I would love to introduce your product to those who are interested along with sharing your tasty recipes
Jules said: on July 13, 2011
Debbie – let me know how I can help!
Chris said: on July 7, 2011
Love,love you’r flour
Chris said: on July 7, 2011
Love u’r blog.
Jules said: on July 20, 2011
Mary Brinton said: on July 7, 2011
I got a BIG chuckle reading Pamela’s testimony in the video of her family’s reaction to her eating cake too. Heh-heh. “OMG – you’re gonna DIE!!!” I can hear it! What fun.
phylis said: on July 7, 2011
I remember the first thing I ate that was Gluten Free. A ginger cookie from a health food store. I thought OMG is this what my life has become. I threw out the entire package. Then I started buying various flours and started baking. What an experience. Griddy heavy doughs! Again more in the trash. Then I found Jules Gluten Free. You have changed my life forever. I am your poster child in NC. Yes your flour may be a little pricey, but at least you don’t have to throw the products out. There is no better pizza then the one made with your flour,not frozen or in a restaurant. My Non-celiac husband loves it. All your recipes are fabulous.
Jules said: on July 13, 2011
Phylis – we have all been there! It is so frustrating that food companies manufacture some gluten-free foods that taste like the box they came in, and they expect us to settle! It makes me so mad every time I sample them at shows or make the mistake of buying something like that myself. My celiac mom does it often as well, but we are both convinced that there is no substitute for making it yourself. You know what goes into it and you love what comes out! So glad you and your hubbie are in a happy gluten-free place now!!!
Jackie Downing said: on July 8, 2011
Cheryl from Facebook sums it up. I agree completely!
Jackie Downing said: on July 8, 2011
I think my favorite bit from the video was the pie. Yummy!! So glad I can eat pie again! Thank you for yourf flour!
Tami McAfee said: on July 8, 2011
I like the gluten free pretzel! I really miss having one when I go into Target Stores…maybe you could talk to them about this??
Jules said: on July 13, 2011
Tami – that would be yummy, wouldn’t it? If you know anyone at Target, send me their number!
Tami McAfee said: on July 8, 2011
My favorite testimony was the one about how great it is to use Jules Flour 1 to 1 for wheat flour recipes…:)
Clare said: on July 8, 2011
Did I see a calzone in there? Oh, man, that looks good, but not as good as that lemon bar.
Jules said: on July 13, 2011
Clare – why don’t you choose a calzone for dinner and lemon bars for dessert?
andrea marrapodi said: on July 9, 2011
Love you recipes and your amazing dedication and energy to helping me Gluten free good!
Cindy W said: on July 9, 2011
I’m excited to think that I will be able to make all our favorites and be able to eat them using this flour. Recently diagnosed with CD.
Cindy W said: on July 9, 2011
The pictures of all these wonderful foods look so good…can’t wait to try baking with your flour. Thank you
Angie Whenry said: on July 9, 2011
Your video made me hungry. Everything looks so wonderful. I love your flour but was unable to use it while my son was at home unless I did double baking because he also has an allergy to corn. He has moved to Seattle, so I don’t have to worry about keeping everything clearly marked. Yay!!!!
Jules said: on July 13, 2011
Haha! Angie, I guess that’s another benefit to kids growing up and moving out?!
Enjoy not having to double bake!!!
Michelle Finkle said: on July 9, 2011
So thankful to have found people like you to make living with a gluten allergy easier. Just diagnosed at 40, I am struggling to adjust to a new way of life. Looking forward to trying your flour so I don’t have to miss out on many family food traditions. Thank you!
Jules said: on July 13, 2011
Michelle – I can’t wait to hear how you like it! Remember you can always come back here and search for favorite recipes, too!
Angie Whenry said: on July 9, 2011
My favorite comment was from Michelle, about not having to have 4 different all-purpose flours (that taste like sand). LOL!
Melanie Binkley said: on July 9, 2011
Pamela’s testimonial would be my favorite followed by Stephanie’s.
Andrea said: on July 9, 2011
Which food was my favorite? Oh my gosh, how to choose? Well, it must be the adorable gingerbread man with his big eyes looking back at the camera! Making them this Christmas after discovering your flour will not only bring back the flavor of holidays past, but will allow us to create many new family holiday memories. (Don’t tell the gingerbread man, but our close 2nd choice was the sugary yumm-o looking cinnamon rolls!)
Maggie Pogue said: on July 9, 2011
Those cinnamon rolls look like they will melt in your mouth! We will have to try those
Maggie Pogue said: on July 9, 2011
My favorite testimonial is ” Best Gluten-Free Flour -2011″
Glutenista.com
And it is the best!!!!!
Lilli Sarantos said: on July 9, 2011
LOVE YOUR FLOUR!!! It is PERFECT!
I love the comment from the woman who said she wished she knew about it before buying 4 bags that smelled weird and tasted like sand! That’s the PERFECT analogy!!
Andrea said: on July 9, 2011
Best testimonial for me was from Stephanie N. Her words describe exactly how many of us gluten free people feel!
Kindra-At Home With K said: on July 9, 2011
I just found your site last week while searhing for gluten free. We recently went on the diet, so I’m a newbie in all of this. But surprisingly I found a new love and appreciation for cooking/baking. I can’t wait to try out your flour!!
All the pics you shared look so yummy, but I have a sweet tooth, so the cookies/cakes/muffins sure caught my eye!!
Jules said: on July 13, 2011
Kindra – isn’t that amazing to suddenly love/appreciate baking when you go GF? So many people have told me that effect was an unexpected benefit to a diagnosis of celiac or gluten sensitivity, and that their family now bakes together, makes cookies together, eats family meals together more often … and really views it as a blessing!
michelle said: on July 9, 2011
BISCUITS!!! Oh, how I missed biscuits in the morning. Biscuits and bacon. Biscuits and raspberry jam. Biscuits and eggs. Biscuits and gravy. GRAVY!!Gravy and roast. Gravy and mashed potatoes. Gravy and chicken FRIED steak. FRIED!! Fried chicken. Fried asparagus. Fried shrimp. I could go on and on how wonderful having gluten free flour is!! THANK YOU!! Love the montage! Thanks…I’m hungry now.
Kindra-At Home With K said: on July 9, 2011
The testimonials were all great! The comment from the woman who said she wished she knew about your product before buying 4 bags that smelled weird and tasted like sand was funny!
Lauren said: on July 9, 2011
I miss pizza. I found out in college that I could no longer have it – bad timing. Yours looks wonderful and I’d love to make a crust with your all-purpose flour!
michelle said: on July 9, 2011
The chocolate chip cookies. YUM!!!!!!!!! Well…any cookie for that matter.
Lauren said: on July 9, 2011
Also, I agree with Michelle’s testimonial. I have been through so many GF flours that just don’t work well.
April LeValley said: on July 9, 2011
Made the pizza crust with your recipe.. it was great!! Have also used your flour to make a family cookie recipe and it turned out wonderful!! Gonna try the pie crust next..
Jules said: on July 9, 2011
Fantastic, April! So glad you’re loving my flour in your family recipes too!!! That’s music to my ears!
Kathy Jenkins said: on July 9, 2011
In a word, my fav is “cake”! I knead to start baking again! The comment I could relate to most was Michelle S., Humbolt, IA. She sounds just like me!
Jules said: on July 9, 2011
Kathy- I’m actually baking a cake tonight! I LOVE cake and will find any occasion for it. I also LOVE that I can have awesome cake again and I refuse to ever be deprived again! ; )
Kathy Jenkins said: on July 9, 2011
Wow, great testimonials in the comments! Now I must try your flour!
Vilna Treitler said: on July 9, 2011
I tried other flour mixes, and yours cannot be beat. (I used to buy it by the 50 lb. bags!)
Jules said: on July 9, 2011
Vilna – do you order the cases now, for free shipping? I’m sorry we stopped making the 50 lb bags, but we’re looking into a way to ship them more safely (without breakage) so we can bring them back! Stay tuned!!
Vilna Treitler said: on July 9, 2011
my fav in the montage: the pumpkin/sweet potato pie, and the burger buns. congratulations, and continued success!
Cindy said: on July 9, 2011
I got my Jules Gluten-Free Flour when I saw you in Annapolis and I have never looked back. Love the pirogi, being from Pittsburgh, I have a recipe for Pittsburgh pirogi. My family loves them and I have been getting request to make them again and again. Thank you Jules!
Cindy
Pittsburgh, PA
Cindy said: on July 9, 2011
I agree with the testimonial of Cheryl from Facebook. Cup for cup replacement of wheat flour and everything is delicious!
I never knew that gluten-free could taste so good until I tried Jules Gluten-Free Flour. When are you coming to the Pittsburgh Area?
Cindy
Pittsburgh, PA
Jules said: on July 9, 2011
Cindy – I’m hoping to get back there soon. I think we were trying to set something up with Soergel’s … I’ll check again and see!
Marcy said: on July 9, 2011
ME WANT COOKIES!!!!. Wow my mouth is watering. I have used Jules Gluten free for pancakes and bisquits so far but have not tried cookies yet…. I think I should.
Marcy said: on July 9, 2011
I like the comment about eating cake and the family not knowing they were eating gluten free. LOVE IT!
Kristina Ware said: on July 9, 2011
Oh wow! Everything in the video looked SOOOOO yummy!!! If I had to pick just one thing I guess I’d pick the cookies!
Shelly said: on July 9, 2011
Oh my goodness, I’m drooling over all your delicious looking gluten free foods. I’ve been gluten free and dairy free for years and really miss good tasting mouth-watering gluten free foods. Wow!!
Jules said: on July 9, 2011
Shelly – welcome to delicious gluten and dairy-free foods! Have a look around on my blog for other recipes you might have been missing & have fun!!!
Deanna said: on July 9, 2011
Everything looks so….so…..NORMAL! As I’m just starting out with my gluten-free journey, it’s so comforting to see things I make, things I enjoy eating – looking exactly like I know them. All of those foods are not sacrifice for health. It makes changing easier.
Jules said: on July 9, 2011
Exactly, Deanna! Normal (or better!) should be what you expect and demand of your gluten-free foods, just as you did with your wheat-based foods before. No reason to compromise or sacrifice!! Let us know if we can help as you embark on your gluten-free journey to good health!!!
Jennifer Fugo said: on July 9, 2011
I honestly had NO IDEA that you could use your flour in exactly replacement with ‘normal’ recipes. I have clients who’ve asked me all the time about baking and I personally have no clue about what to tell them because I gave it up since going GF meant using so many different flours and such that it made my head spin. What an incredible advancement in the quest for those of us GF! Well done! Hope to try this out soon and share this with everyone I know.
Jules said: on July 9, 2011
Jennifer – I totally understand the confusion about all the different GF flours — precisely the reason I felt I had to create one all-purpose GF flour (it preserves my sanity too, you know?!). I hope you get to try the flour for yourself soon too! Let us know if we can help in any other way!
Jennifer Fugo said: on July 9, 2011
As for my fav comment:
The one in which the woman bought 4 different types of flour all which smelled weird. Clearly, GF has come a LONG way!
Jules said: on July 9, 2011

Jules GF flour is a gift. I cannot imagine my life without it! Happiness comes in a bag of Jules Gluten Free Flour.
Thank you, Jules!
Jules said: on July 13, 2011
Sandra – that’s just about the sweetest thing anyone has ever said! I’m so happy that my flour has been so helpful to you!!!!!!!
Sandra said: on July 9, 2011
I have zucchini bread baking in the oven now! My family thanks you, Jules!
Jules said: on July 9, 2011
Yay zucchini bread!!! So happy I could help bring some tasty joy to your family, Sandra!
Carrie McMahon said: on July 9, 2011
Okay….did I see pierogies? or were they chinese dumplings? either way: yummy!
Jules said: on July 9, 2011
Carrie – they were pierogies, but you could easily make them into Chinese dumplings! Such an easy recipe, too!! Here’s the recipe & video for ya!
Shelissa said: on July 11, 2011
I miss pizza so much! I have only been gluten free for 2 weeks now as my doctor and I think I may have gluten intolerance. It is sure a struggle right now. Great video! It gives me hope.
Jules said: on July 13, 2011
Shelissa – I’m so glad the video gives you hope!! That’s exactly why we did it!
Shelissa said: on July 11, 2011
I loved the testimonial that said you can use the flour the same as others in recipes. Awesome!
Melissa said: on July 16, 2011
Loved the video – if it weren’t midnight, I’d have to head to the kitchen to whip up a few of those baked goodies!
I loved the comment from the lady who said her family couldn’t believe she was eating GF cake!
Jules said: on July 18, 2011
Our winner of the Thermador “Do You Cook?” T-shirt is BARB who posted her comment on July 3.
We need to hear from you Barb, or we’ll have to pick another winner! Please send your mailing address to Support@JulesGlutenFree.com by Tuesday July 19 so we can get your prizes out to you right away!!! Congratulations!
Shirley Fredrickson said: on July 18, 2011
The video left me salivating followed by drooling
Would love to learn how to do all that for Christmas presents for family & friends. Show them a delicious but healthier way of cooking!
Jules said: on July 20, 2011

) …
Have a fantastic rest of the week and a pleasant summer…well wishes…Tammie
…Life is Good…
Jules said: on July 26, 2011
Tammie – I LOVE the idea! I’ll check with Thermador and let you know! Thanks for all your support (moral or otherwise!) of our GF Food Labeling efforts! We should be hearing something from the FDA by the end of this month or early August, for sure!
