Gluten-Free and Starbucks!

Good news ! We have gluten-free options at Starbucks.

When Starbucks announced the cancellation of their cake via Twitter this started a petition to bring back the cake. They listened and acted upon this petition and the many calls they received.

All of the gluten-free items they now have offer a longer shelf life. This they hope will  lead to less waste and less profit loss. For the full Starbucks gluten-free product list, check out Gluten-Free Philly’s post. There are nut free and dairy free options this time around too.

Starbucks has shared that after the discontinuation of their Valencia Orange cake the gluten-free consumers really expressed a desire for  more healthy snacks so they decided to accommodate this need. Yay Starbucks!

It’s is a smart move for Starbucks to accommodate gluten-free, vegan and organic minded consumers with these new food options. Many people will enjoy these products.

I have stopped at a few Starbucks to check them out. I have found ones that do not have the GF items yet. I was told they are getting them, the one in Texas airport told me that it has to do with the heightened security on getting new products in and the one in Clearwater, Florida at Barnes and Noble just did not have them delivered as of yet.

Let me know what you guys find out and if they have Oats or not as I know that Lucy’s ( above) does have oats, be it gf oats though. I still prefer to stay off the oats as much as I can.

ENJOY! Tina Turbin
