The beginning...

A few years ago, I was plagued with health issues, not knowing that many of them were attributed to gluten. As I eliminated gluten (wheat, barley, and rye) from my diet, many things changed in my life...I lost weight, swelling and puffiness disappeared, digestive issues resolved, and my migraines vanished!

I’ve never looked back, but with this new diet restriction came a whole new way of cooking. At first, it was very difficult and I tried many different flours and prepared foods but so much of it was expensive and just terrible! I wasted so much money on what I hoped would taste like my old homemade version, but it never did. The texture and consistency was always off, as was the taste. SO, I resolved to learn to cook gluten free foods that were so tasty, my family and friends would not even realize they were gluten free! Now, they have to ask if something is gluten free, because they can’t tell from just a taste test!

After much encouragement and giving it a great deal of thought, I decided to develop a home based bakery to provide gluten free options for purchase by restaurants, organizers of events or weddings, or for individuals by special order. The name, Better Than Flours, came about as the result of friends brainstorming suggestions. While most gluten free goodies are made with flour, it is not the traditional flour from wheat we are used to having, and now that I have perfected many recipes, my family often thinks my gluten free version is ‘better’. Hence the name.

I hope you order some goodies and love them as much as we do. You should definitely order something for your significant other, gluten free or not. After all, these treats are Better Than Flours. AND Flowers. :-)
