Gluten is a type of protein found in cereals and their derivatives.

For most people, this protein is completely safe, but there are those who are allergic to it. Just a moment: only a doctor can determine gluten intolerance.

If you are diagnosed, you will have to exclude all gluten products from your diet, including bakery and confectionery products.

Most of them contain gluten because wheat flour is most often used when kneading dough for bread and other baked goods.

This category of products also includes pasta, which is also produced using wheat flour.

But this does not mean that sweets and favorite baked goods should be completely excluded from the diet.

It is likely that the prepared products will not be as fluffy, but they will definitely be tasty and will not pose a health risk.
