The "Almondy" Original Swedish Almond TOrte with DAIM from IKEA is unbelievably good--and it's gluten-free!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You can eat it by the slice in their restaurant, but it's quite inexpensive to buy the whole thing frozen and bring it home.

I wonder how many more IKEA products are gluten-free? I had actually bought this before I knew I had a problem with gluten, just because it tastes so good.

Yeah!! Another Sunday drive added back to the list.

Now those Swedes know how to make food properly, don't they!!!!!

I was there last weekend and looked those things over--they looked good! Alas, I didn't buy one though, I am dairy-free too...

You mean like desks and coffee tables and stuff like that?



You don't know how right you are. A "proper" torte, according to a Martha Stewart Living rerun I was watching recently, is made with nut flour. They aren't meant to contain any wheat flour at all. So what's really good about these tortes is that they aren't gluten-free because someone made them for a specific dietary market, they're gluten free because they're better that way.

I have two of those in my freezer! Thet are very good. I think you can get them at either Sunnybridge or Whole foods. I can't remember where I purchased them at but they might be cheaper than at Ikea. I also bought a choc.decent dessert at Trader Joe's in Ohio when I was there. I'm not a choc. person but it looked so good...I will get the name of it of the box if anyone wants it.....

I used to eat those before I was df. They were so good.

Visited Ikea, today. YUM!! Three varieties of the torte -- chocolate, caramel(more like toffee), and almond. All free of gluten. Guy behind the counter showed me the box so I could read the ingredients and saw website almondy.com I haven't checked it out yet. Also box indicated they were connected w/ Kraft foods.

Very yummy, I thought a small amount went a long way. I might break mine into mini - bite size pieces and freeze them.

Lucky me, Mom decided to serve it for dessert on Easter -- it was that yummy! (I'm the only gluten-free one in the bunch!)

yum... got the chocolate almondy torte last night when we went to Ikea- thanks for the heads up!

I love this, LOVE IT!!! Also, I love the little flag on top which says "Glutenfrei". I knew you all would understand.

Dangit! The nearest Ikea for me is in Houston (though I'm not above driving 2.5 hours for cake!).

I found Almondy stuff (what's at Ikea) at the gluten-free mall though!
