Aunt Gussie’s new gluten free English Muffins and Focaccia Bread offer tasty alternatives for individuals with Celiac disease or those following a gluten free diet. The new gluten free breads come in individually wrapped servings and are baked with the finest all natural and wholesome ingredients delivering a gluten free product with exceptional taste and unique texture.

Garfield, NJ, June 25, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Aunt Gussie’s Cookies and Crackers, known for all natural premium baked goods in classic, sugar free and gluten free varieties, is expanding its line of gluten free products by introducing new gluten free breads including English Muffins and Focaccia Bread. The new gluten free breads offer tasty alternatives for individuals with Celiac disease or those following a gluten free diet. Both the English Muffins and Focaccia Bread come in individually wrapped servings and are baked with the finest all natural and wholesome ingredients delivering a gluten free product with exceptional taste and unique texture.

"People who’ve tasted our new gluten free English muffins and Focaccia breads have been amazed and excited by the rich texture and great flavor of the products," says David Caine, President, Aunt Gussie’s Cookies and Crackers. "Not being able to find great tasting gluten free bread has been one of the biggest challenges for people who need to follow this strict diet. By using the highest quality all natural ingredients, we’ve been able to develop recipes that not only satisfy the gluten free criteria but offer exceptional taste as well."

Aunt Gussie’s new English Muffins and Focaccia Breads contain the highest quality natural ingredients including agave syrup, a delicious natural sweetener from the agave plant, known for its low glycemic index. Foods sweetened with agave have a low glycemic profile and have been recommended for diabetics and others looking to control weight and appetite. Agave provides sweetness without causing the rapid blood sugar spike from regular cane sugar. Agave is also a popular sweetening ingredient for those following a Vegan diet because of its natural plant based properties.

Aunt Gussie’s new gluten free breads will be arriving in stores starting in July 2009. The new English Muffins and Focaccia Bread are each available in two varieties which will dramatically increase production at the state-of-the-art stand alone dedicated gluten free – wheat free baking facility built last year to introduce Aunt Gussie’s line of popular gluten free cookies.

The English Muffins are packaged 6 muffins per bag with a suggested retail price of $7.50 for an 18 ounce package. Available in Original and Cinnamon Raisin, the muffins are individually wrapped and frozen to ensure freshness. Aunt Gussie’s Gluten Free Focaccia Bread is also individually wrapped and frozen. Packaged 6 pieces per bag, the suggested retail price is $7.50 for a 16 ounce package. The Focaccia bread is available in two gourmet flavors, fresh Rosemary and Kalamata Olive. The new bread products can be found in the frozen food section of health food stores, grocery stores and specialty food shops offering gluten free products. Just thaw, cut and toast to enjoy a wholesome treat.

Last year, Aunt Gussie's launched its first gluten free products: a line of cookies in Chocolate Spritz, Sugar Free Vanilla Spritz, Chocolate Chip and Sugar Free Chocolate Chip with Almonds. Making baked treats available to those living with Celiac disease, diabetes or suffering from gluten allergies and other dietary restrictions was paramount in introducing this brand new line of alternative baked goods. By expanding the line into bread products, Aunt Gussie’s is able to offer a larger variety of high quality, delicious gluten free baked goods to consumers no matter what their dietary restrictions.
