A sample of my chocolate students' class materials box. Online class has required a re-vamping of classes & so chocolatr tastings will look different. @stmarysca 🍫 Students will be tasting @paschachocolate @equalexchange @alterecosf @unreal.snacks @nowheychocolate @raakachocolate @hukitchen @thrivemarket chocolates to name a few. They will also learn about the @granolabarpan when we make my Twigs Bars. Thanks to @namastefoodsllc @ohifoodco @bakeology for the support. 🍫 #SMCChocolatiers #SMCChocolatiers2021 The class will be #glutenfree & #AllergyFriendly #ChocolateProfa #ConfectionsOfACeliacChocoholic #ConfectionsOfAChocoholic 🍫 #CornAllergicCeliacEats #CornAllergicCeliacTreats #livefreefromandthrive https://www.instagram.com/p/CJbsYTQJGgV/?igshid=6n3ve93ddwxb

Magic Bars. . . 🎂 . . These have become a second birthday dessert since I developed the recipe a couple of years ago.

🎉Happy Birthday Mini-Foodie Z! 🎉🎉 . . 🎂 . . Our birthday tradition is that the celebrant gets to choose all the food we eat for each of the meals & snaxka as well as our beverages. The tradition has evolved into a hearty breakfast with baked goods, a smoothie or n'ice cream & hot cacao. Lunch is tapas style. A snack tends to be a beloved fruit or baked good & dinner is a pizza with a dessert. I have noticed that since my chocoholic book came out, the girlies are making sure that we have 🍫 at every meal! 😂 Makes me think they like the contents 😂 . . 🎂 . . Pictured here are my #paleo #NutFree #DairyFree #GlutenFree #CornFree Chocolate Waffles from #ConfectionsOfAChocoholic cookbook topped with Blueberry Preserves & Coconut Whipped Cream, @simplemills #Vegetarian Bagels (made using the foccacia/dinner rolls mix, Hot Cacao with Coconut Whipped Cream & a #vegan Tropical N'Ice Cream.

Nothing says summer like a popsicle, am I right? . . 🍦 . . But what how can a celiac & mix-allergy household enjoy this treat without leaving someone out or spending too much? By making it at home from scratch. . . Step 1: make a safe for you ice cream. You can find several #allergyconscious & #CeliacFriendly recipes in my #cookbook. . . Step 2: Place in popsicle molds. BUT if you don't have any, use a mini-loaf mold. Freeze until set. . . Step 3: Make chocolate coating. Pictured is the white chocolate from my #ConfectionsOfAChocoholic book. . . Step 4: Dip or manually coat unfolded popsicle. Freeze to set. . . Step 5: the most important - Enjoy 🎉 😋 . . 🍦 . . These are Chocolate Ice Cream White Chocolate Dipped popsicles some with blueberries, some without. . #Vegetarian #paleo #DairyFree #GlutenFree #CornFree #NutFree (contains coconut) #SoyFree #ChocolateProfa #chocolate #WhiteChocolate #IceCream #popsicle #Blueberry #allergymama #AllergyKidSnacks #AllergyKid #FoodAllergyLife #Semglúten #semlacteos #SinLacteos #Singluten . . #CornAllergicCeliacEats #CornAllergicCeliacTreats #livefreefromandthrive https://www.instagram.com/p/CDcX7FVJz0N/?igshid=12t2loc0013uq

I have a confession: I'm a Chocoholic raising mini-Chocoholics! . . 🎂 . . As those who walk the #FoodAllergyLife journey know, having a traditional birthday cake for an #allergykid & a #celiac family plus a #cornallergy is a CHALLENGE, but there is good news, no one needs to miss out. . . 🎉 . . Mini-Foodie A, aka my first #allergykid & #minichocoholic, requested #chocolate at every meal / snack on her birthday & yes, this #ChocolateProfa #allergymama couldn't say no 😉 . . 🍫 . . These are my Magic Bars from my #ConfectionsOfAChocoholic cookbook (https://amzn.to/374QVfI) and instead of spreading out the chocolate chips on top, I used them as decoration. . . 🎂 . . #BirthdayGirl #BirthdayFood #MagicBars #GlutenFree #DairyFree #CornFree #soyfree #NutFree #EggFree #paleo #vegan #vegetarian #plantbased #CeliacFriendlyDessert #celiac #CeliacFriendly #cornfreeconfections #chocolate #ConfectionsOfACeliacChocoholic #ConfectionsOfACornFreeCeliacChocoholic #vegan #Veganetariano #Semglúten #semlacteos #SemSoja #Singluten #SinLacteos . . 🎉 . . #CornAllergicCeliacEats #CornAllergicCeliacTreats #livefreefromandthrive https://www.instagram.com/p/CBn6P71JWWg/?igshid=19fjju2pxh119

Birthday lunch: #AllergyFriendly Tapas Platter. . . 🎉 . . Of course food allergies can be a bummer, but we choose to see the bright side. Besides eating in a healthy manner, one of the coolest "side effects" is that we have kiddos who are growing up as foodies who appreciate non-mainstream flavor combinations. Mini-Foodie A requested a chocolate pairing platter #tapasstyle for her #birthday lunch.
