Hello,

My daughter (26) has been living gluten free for about 9 months now and REALLY missed good bread. So much of it was dry and hard on the market. This year i bought her your bread machine and some of your mixes and she just couldn't jump up and down any higher or harder! She was thrilled! Thanks so much for bringing bread back into her life!

Hugs, Theresa (one Happy Mama)

I am Celiac that had trouble finding good bread for the last two years since I was diagnosed. I have tried all kinds of breads, but my mom and I agree that none are as good as your bread! The texture is similar to regular bread. Because your bread is soft and does not fall apart like some gluten free breads. Thanks for making great bread. My 5 year old sister Sara likes it too.

I have just baked my first Breads From Anna and have to tell you I am just thrilled!!!!! I Was diagnosed about a year and a half ago and have tried the ready made loaves(Yuck) and the other mixes (Fair). Yours is the first I can eat without toasting it first and can now have a real sandwich like real people eat. Also, it is healthier than all the other ones. Thank you, thank you.

I am a 64 year old lady who was diagnosed with celiac a few years ago....I was and still am , a baker... I've set up about 8 binders of gluten/wheat free recipes. I've never been a big bread eater, until now, I ve have not found one mix or bread recipe, that can compare to your Breads From Anna/corn,dairy,soy & rice free. The thing I like about your bread is that it doesn't have the flat or aftertaste of the other mixes I have tried. My Husband likes it too! Frankly ,you could not tell the difference between this and wheat bread if you did not know it.

The little joys of motherhood.... I have made Anna's Pumpkin Bread into muffins for my little girl (5 years old) to take to school for her class treats. No sprinkles or frosting was added , just the plain simple healthy muffin. When she came home from school I asked her how did the kids like their snack???"Oh, mom they gobbled them down in 10 second flat." I asked again, so all the kids liked them(21 kids total). The answer was"Yes". Sharing something healthy with all your little friends... JOY!

Just wanted to let you guys know that I tried the banana Bread Mix and it is wonderful. I made muffins instead of bread,
used two eggs yokes and one eggs replacer since my son is allergic to egg whites and it still came out great. I purchased
your product at a store called Little Giant located in Causeway Bay , Hong Kong. I can't wait to try more of your products.
My son is on the autistic spectrum and cannot eat gluten, dairy, egg whites, or soy. He used to love Banana muffins I
would make for him and I am so glad that I found a replacement that is so goog he will never miss the wheat.

"Thank you so much for the great loaf of pumpkin bread. I enjoyed it as a snack during my travel day today. I had to tell you about my "taste test" with my 11 year old when I got home this evening - he said it is the best stuff he ever tasted and ate a whole slice. That is huge for my picky eater! I am pretty sure he is GI, but I have not tested him yet because I am only 5 weeks into this diet and needed to get situated on it before I can help my kids do it. I will be baking cookies from your mixes this week with my boys to start guiding them toward some GF foods.

"I can't wait to make quiche with the pie crust. I think my kitchen will be busy this week!

"Thanks again for letting me make a pig of myself with the pumpkin bread this weekend. I have not had a treat that tasty since I began my GF life!"

- Jennifer

"Enjoyed your wonderful bread recently at the CDF meeting in L.A. I could have cried it was the first truly good bread I've tasted in over twenty years. Bought some, made it at home, and what a treat! Thank you so much!"

- Nancy

"Let me first say, your bread mixes are nothing short of amazing! I first tried them at the Celiac Symposium back in November and promptly went out and bought the Banana & Pumpkin bread mixes to make for Thanksgiving. They were a hit with both the celiacs and non-celiacs! I love both of these breads."

"I had also brought the regular bread mix, but was hesitant to try it because it involved using the brand new Zo bread machine that while I was so excited to get, was secretly scared of, and figured there was no way the bread would come out as good when I made it in the bread machine, as the sample I had tasted at the Symposium. Well after much prodding from my husband I finally decided to make the bread this past Sunday. WOW, is all I can say! Not only was the bread machine ridiculously easy to use, but I felt like I was eating wheat bread again. It is incredible!!! Again, I was worried, that ok it would taste great when I first made it but by the 2nd day it would be the usual gluten free bread that needed to be toasted or crumbled when you ate it. Nope! Got home last night cut a piece off, and just ate it. No toasting, no crumbling, no slathering it with peanut butter to make it edible… just perfect bread. Thank you!"

"That said, because you are clearly some sort of gluten free bread genius, I was wondering what you thought about developing a mix for a mock-rye bread? A pastrami sandwich just isn't the same without it ; )"

"Thank you for creating such a wonderful product."

- Jillian

"Good morning---had to tell you that the breads from Anna are magnificent!! It's so great to be able to make such tasty treats with good texture for my celiac wife. Great mix of ingredients. Look forward to cranberry bread. Keep up the good work."

- Gerald

"Hi, Anna...I met you at the cooking class in E. Greenwich, RI earlier this month. I have a 12 yr.old daughter who is diabetic, vegetarian, and celiac. My husband and 7 yr. old son are also celiac as well...I just wanted to tell you how much my family LOVED your bread. I won a package of it that night and made it the very next day. My kids wanted toast for breakfast, sandwiches for lunch and it was gone in less than 2 days. We placed an order for a case of the bread and can't wait to get it. Thank you so much for putting on your demonstration that night. Even though I'm not celiac and can eat normal breads, I loved all the foods you made that night and thought they were delicious. I've been recommending your products to my other celiac friends who weren't aware of your breads b/c I think EVERY celiac should try them!! Thanks again!"

- Shelley

"Give Anna a big hug for me. Yum. The breads are great. I hand make them with no power tools. They are delightful! Gota go order more! See ya!!"

"Just wanted to let you all know I tried 'Breads by Anna' Banana Bread mix yesterday. Like the other gluten, corn, rice and yeast free products available, it was great.

"I didn't have enough bananas to try "banana bread," but did have a lot of fall apples that needed to be used. So, I made applesauce in the food processor, and instead of mashed banana, added applesauce instead and 1 t. cinnamon (could have used 1 T. cinnamon) instead. Since I live at high altitude (8600 feet), I baked it in TWO loaf pans instead of one, making 2 loaf size "cakes" instead of "bread." (Loaves have much more of a tendency to fall and be soggy at this altitude.) Would have made great muffins as well. Or, with a layer of cinnamon, sugar, nuts and sour cream in the center of the batter, a wonderful "coffeecake." You could not tell it was gluten free. No gritty rice flour either.

"I bet the company could add 'Alternative Suggestions' to the banana bread package for all sorts of different 'fruit breads/cakes/muffins' and now I wish I had another bag handy to actually try a 'Christmas fruit cake' - using 'good' dried fruit and a lot of spices and nuts! Bet it would work!

"Great products! I would be happy to recommend them to my food sensitivity clients."

- Jan

"Hi! Just wanted to drop you a line and let you know that I love your bread mix! It's definitely the best G-free bread out there!! It makes sticking to this strict diet so much easier. Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!"

- Jessica

"I just wanted to take the time to tell you how absolutely wonderful your pie crusts are!! I made two pies for Thanksgiving and no one knew that they were gluten free, just that they tasted really good. The tip off was when my Mother-in-law said, hey you aren't supposed to be eating this! When I told her, she was amazed at how great the texture and taste was!"

"Thanks again!"

"My father and I were diagnosed with celiac disease earlier this year and were forced to give up so many of our favorite foods and family traditions. We attended our first Celiac Conference in Columbus on November 4th and purchased a Pumpkin Bread Mix. As a girl, my mom always let me eat leftover pumpkin pie for breakfast after Thanksgiving and I was afraid to see another tradition go; however, I've been savoring the pumpkin bread for breakfast AND dessert (warm, with a little vanilla ice cream) ever since Thanksgiving. Not only is the bread delicious and could compete with any of the pumpkin bread recipes I had pre-celiac disease, but it's just as delicious as the leftover pumpkin pie I used to eat in years past. I'm looking forward to trying the other bread mixes and thank you for making these products available."

"Thank you, thank you, thank you!"

- Megan

"WOW! Your pumpkin bread ROCKS! I had my doubts when I was mixing the batter (it looked a little chunky and I though it may be gritty) but the bread turned out great. By mistake, I poured it in a cake pan instead of a bread pan (and cooked it for only 25 minutes) and it was awesome. My husband, who does not follow a gluten free diet, loves the light texture too. I love to bake and I think this is the best cake/bread I've ever tried. We'll definitely buy your products again. Great job!"

- Andrea

"When asked what my favorite food is… forever… my answer has always been bread and butter (that counts as one food, right?). So, when I was diagnosed with Celiac disease, not only could I not eat my favorite food anymore… but any breads acceptable for Celiacs were, in my experience, pretty much inedible. I’ll bet I tried 10 different bread recipes and none worked. Breads From Anna™ has changed all that! It’s the best. I’m enjoying sandwiches for the first time in 3 years!"

"Your devoted fan,"

-Leslie A. Foy

"Buy a mix from Breads From Anna™!! It is WITHOUT QUESTION the best bread. Superior to any we have tasted. My husband has made many loaves, tried dozens of recipes, and nothing comes close.

"I have no financial interest in this company, but will do whatever necessary to ensure it stays in business, due to the quality of the product. And, the owner is a really neat lady, too ;-) "

-Andrea Levario

"...When it comes to GF bread, I thought I had developed THE BEST recipe out there (it includes Montina). After you and I made contact I checked out your website and decided to try your bread. We ordered a bag of 'Breads From Anna™' form Gluten Free Pantry and baked a loaf and 5 hamburger buns with it this morning. Well, I take my hat off to you! It is the best GF bread we've ever had! I'm putting my great bread recipe back in the 'tried' archive!

"We baked it in the oven in a clay bread pan. The texture is amazing! The taste is great! And the fact that it has the 'gluten' stringiness makes you feel you are eating a great bread from a local gourmet bakery! As someone said to me about the baklava and spanakopita, so I say to you: TAKE A BOW !!!"

-Dimitrios Douros

"We had our meeting tonight and your bread was a big hit!

"I have been celiac for 3 years and never found a bread I truly liked, except the millet, which has recently been shot down. I made this bread and my grandkids (non-celiac) kept asking for more slices to eat. I think I ate a half loaf by myself. It is wonderful warm, but the test came hours later when it was truly cooled down. It was still AWESOME and didn't even need toasted. I have never made bread for myself except once early in my illness. Now I believe I will make this bread all the time. Also our support group loved it and we will be doing group orders. They can hardly wait to get their own.

"Thanks so much ...again."

-Bev Messner

"I just tried the corn free/dairy free mix with Flax Seed (3Tbspn with 9 Tbspn of boiling water, let set for 15 minutes, then stir) and it turned out GREAT!

"My daughter can't eat dairy, soy, gluten, corn, or egg, so we have not been eating bread until now. I am so happy to have found your product and I'm thriled at the ease of making, and fantastic taste and texture! Thank you."

-Laura in Iowa

"I LOVE Breads From Anna™!

"I've been a celiac for three years and I've given up bread altogether because I don't like the gluten free breads out there- they are all really dry and tasteless. But then I tried Breads From Anna™ and I can't get enough! There is no other gluten free bread that tastes like normal bread, except this. I can actually eat sandwiches now and ENJOY them! The consistency and texture of it is like no other.

"But my favorite thing to do with the bread mix is to make a pizza crust from it. I crave it! Even my non-celiac friends love it as much as I do! You wouldn't know that this mix is gluten free unless someone told you. It's THAT good!"

-Julianna

"It's great! It tastes great (not like cardboard) and it's soft. It's like real bread! If I could eat it all day I would."

-Maggie, 17 years old

Her sister said this:

"It tastes like real bread and looks like real bread. It's awesome--the best bread I've ever had!"

-Kathryn, 10 years old.

"I made bread last night (in the bread machine). It’s absolutely delicious! Thank you again for developing this recipe. I can see it is going to be a staple at my house!"

-Joni

“I made your special gluten-free bread in class to day, it is fantastic!

"I am wheat-free and primarily gluten free. I recently added oats back into my diet and I am playing with barley now. But I will never go back to eating wheat--I feel 100% better. I am not celiac, but have had many problems with digesting wheat.

"As you know finding really good bread is hard. Actually I haven’t had any good basic bread. Sweet breads are easy, but just plain basic bread is hard to come by.

"Let me know about how to go about purchasing! Thanks again for your creation, I can’t wait to eat it up!"

-Alison

"Many thanks for the delicious loaf of bread. It is absolutely magnificent! The color, texture, crust and taste were all just perfect! I really feel that I am eating a 'real' piece of bread-just perfect!"

-Pat

"Thanks so much for this bread, it is unbelievable! We have not had bread in nine years because there is nothing available that taste or acts like bread. Please, please how can we get more?"

-Lee

"This bread is amazing!! The only place I might be able to find bread this good is France!"

-Jeff

"This is it! There is nothing else out there that tastes like bread, I have to have more."

-Catherine
