We know that when it comes to baking, it can be a real nuisance having food allergies. Sometimes it means going without cake or biscuits which is something we simply won't allow. Everyone should be able to enjoy our hand-iced biscuits! We've been developing a gluten free vanilla biscuit recipe which tastes as good as our classic vanilla recipe.
