Perhaps it's the Southern Girl in me, but I love giving gifts. Birthdays and gift-giving holidays don't come around often enough for me though, so I've decided to create more occasions to give fun stuff to my friends!
In my gluten-free world, the release of this video is excuse enough for me! I'm really excited about this video, as it represents a TON of baking and time photographing my recipes. The funny part is that it's just the tip of my baking iceburg, so to speak, but it's still a lot of food!
I hope you enjoy watching it as much as I do – when I can't think of what I want to make next, I always get hungry from something in this video that gives me a good idea for my next meal or treat!
Have a look, and leave a comment telling me which food you see that's your favorite! Leave another comment telling me which testimonial at the end of the video is your favorite. Each of these comments (you can leave up to 2) will enter you to win goodies!!! (I suppose, technically, you could get a friend to comment for you too, increasing your odds of winning … if they agree to share the prize!)

As for my fav comment:
The one in which the woman bought 4 different types of flour all which smelled weird. Clearly, GF has come a LONG way!
I honestly had NO IDEA that you could use your flour in exactly replacement with ‘normal’ recipes. I have clients who’ve asked me all the time about baking and I personally have no clue about what to tell them because I gave it up since going GF meant using so many different flours and such that it made my head spin. What an incredible advancement in the quest for those of us GF! Well done! Hope to try this out soon and share this with everyone I know.
Jennifer – I totally understand the confusion about all the different GF flours — precisely the reason I felt I had to create one all-purpose GF flour (it preserves my sanity too, you know?!). I hope you get to try the flour for yourself soon too! Let us know if we can help in any other way!
Everything looks so….so…..NORMAL! As I’m just starting out with my gluten-free journey, it’s so comforting to see things I make, things I enjoy eating – looking exactly like I know them. All of those foods are not sacrifice for health. It makes changing easier.
Exactly, Deanna! Normal (or better!) should be what you expect and demand of your gluten-free foods, just as you did with your wheat-based foods before. No reason to compromise or sacrifice!! Let us know if we can help as you embark on your gluten-free journey to good health!!!
Oh my goodness, I’m drooling over all your delicious looking gluten free foods. I’ve been gluten free and dairy free for years and really miss good tasting mouth-watering gluten free foods. Wow!!
Shelly – welcome to delicious gluten and dairy-free foods! Have a look around on my blog for other recipes you might have been missing & have fun!!!
Oh wow! Everything in the video looked SOOOOO yummy!!! If I had to pick just one thing I guess I’d pick the cookies!
I like the comment about eating cake and the family not knowing they were eating gluten free. LOVE IT!
ME WANT COOKIES!!!!. Wow my mouth is watering. I have used Jules Gluten free for pancakes and bisquits so far but have not tried cookies yet…. I think I should.
I agree with the testimonial of Cheryl from Facebook. Cup for cup replacement of wheat flour and everything is delicious!
I never knew that gluten-free could taste so good until I tried Jules Gluten-Free Flour. When are you coming to the Pittsburgh Area?

Cindy – I’m hoping to get back there soon. I think we were trying to set something up with Soergel’s … I’ll check again and see!
I got my Jules Gluten-Free Flour when I saw you in Annapolis and I have never looked back. Love the pirogi, being from Pittsburgh, I have a recipe for Pittsburgh pirogi. My family loves them and I have been getting request to make them again and again. Thank you Jules!

my fav in the montage: the pumpkin/sweet potato pie, and the burger buns. congratulations, and continued success!
I tried other flour mixes, and yours cannot be beat. (I used to buy it by the 50 lb. bags!)
Vilna – do you order the cases now, for free shipping? I’m sorry we stopped making the 50 lb bags, but we’re looking into a way to ship them more safely (without breakage) so we can bring them back! Stay tuned!!
Wow, great testimonials in the comments! Now I must try your flour!
Made the pizza crust with your recipe.. it was great!! Have also used your flour to make a family cookie recipe and it turned out wonderful!! Gonna try the pie crust next..
Fantastic, April! So glad you’re loving my flour in your family recipes too!!! That’s music to my ears!
In a word, my fav is “cake”! I knead to start baking again! The comment I could relate to most was Michelle S., Humbolt, IA. She sounds just like me!
Kathy- I’m actually baking a cake tonight! I LOVE cake and will find any occasion for it. I also LOVE that I can have awesome cake again and I refuse to ever be deprived again! ; )
Also, I agree with Michelle’s testimonial. I have been through so many GF flours that just don’t work well.
I miss pizza. I found out in college that I could no longer have it – bad timing. Yours looks wonderful and I’d love to make a crust with your all-purpose flour!
The chocolate chip cookies. YUM!!!!!!!!! Well…any cookie for that matter.
BISCUITS!!! Oh, how I missed biscuits in the morning. Biscuits and bacon. Biscuits and raspberry jam. Biscuits and eggs. Biscuits and gravy. GRAVY!!Gravy and roast. Gravy and mashed potatoes. Gravy and chicken FRIED steak. FRIED!! Fried chicken. Fried asparagus. Fried shrimp. I could go on and on how wonderful having gluten free flour is!! THANK YOU!! Love the montage! Thanks…I’m hungry now.
The testimonials were all great! The comment from the woman who said she wished she knew about your product before buying 4 bags that smelled weird and tasted like sand was funny!
I just found your site last week while searhing for gluten free. We recently went on the diet, so I’m a newbie in all of this. But surprisingly I found a new love and appreciation for cooking/baking. I can’t wait to try out your flour!!
All the pics you shared look so yummy, but I have a sweet tooth, so the cookies/cakes/muffins sure caught my eye!!
Kindra – isn’t that amazing to suddenly love/appreciate baking when you go GF? So many people have told me that effect was an unexpected benefit to a diagnosis of celiac or gluten sensitivity, and that their family now bakes together, makes cookies together, eats family meals together more often … and really views it as a blessing!
