A little
while back, a co-worker brought in some PaneRiso Cinnamon Gluten free cookies
for me to try. I’d never tried these before, so it was a great opportunity to
test out a new product!

Back to the
cookies, these are made with corn starch as the main ingredient. The rest of
the ingredients (taken from website) are brown
sugar, vegetable oil margarine (soya/canola)*, caramel colour (<25ppm
sulphites) cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg. So
they don’t win the healthiest cookie of the year; especially with all the corn
starch!
The cookies themselves have a bizarre
texture (I am guessing because of the corn starch) and they literally melt in
your mouth. The cookies are low protein as well, which is good for other
conditions in which individuals must limit protein.
The cinnamon flavor comes out when you
eat the cookies, and they have a good crunch. They are also low in calories (I think
about 30-40 per cookie), so if you are watching your calorie intake they might
be good for you!
The closest website I can find with the
PaneRiso products is here - it lists all
their products, and I think you can buy them online as well.
I don’t think
these cookies would be a re-purchase for me; the texture combined with copious
amounts of corn starch would leave these to an occasional treat item.
Anyone have
any favourite PaneRiso products to share?
Their GF croutons are ok, but their bread is AWFUL!
