David Towse - Manufacturing A Gluten Free Product

OH CRUMBS EPISODE 9 FEAT DAVID TOWSE 

Oh Crumbs - The Gluten Free Podcast. A podcast about all things gluten free, coeliac disease and staying positive despite your dietary requirements. By gluten free bloggers Laura Strange and Sarah Howells. 

(This week's episode is sponsored by Dorset Cereals, who have just brought two brand new gluten free muesli flavours to free from shelves in selected Waitrose and ASDA stores.)

Episode 9 - this week our guest is David Towse, who is head of brand for this episode’s sponsors, Dorset Cereals. David is gluten free himself so he has a real personal attachment to the brand’s new free from range.

As well as talking about his own experience and why he never got an official coeliac disease diagnosis, David also gave us a great insight into exactly what goes into bringing a gluten free product to market. We chatted about how long it takes to develop an idea into a product, sourcing safe manufacturing space, the cost of gluten free food and the growth of the free from and vegan markets.  We also talked about the GLUTEN FREE DREAM FARM - and yes, this place is as magical as it sounds!

Before the interview, Laura and Sarah talked about gluten free mini breaks, and - yes you heard right - gluten detecting dogs! Apparently this is a thing - let us know what you think!

COMPETITION TIME: This week our sponsors Dorset Cereals are giving you a chance to win one of FIVE gluten free breakfast hampers featuring their brand new gluten free muesli. Head to our Instagram page for details on how to enter.
