I am allergic to wheat and cannot seem to find any gluten-free licorice in store. Does anyone know of a website to order from, or a store that would carry it?
If you google gluten free licorice there are lots of hits, but I don't remember ever actually finding any for DS when he couldn't have wheat. (But that was a long time ago before gluten free was a "thing".)
ETA: peanutfreeplanet.com sells Gimbal's Licorice Scottie Dogs (http://www.peanutfreeplanet.com/Gimbals_Licorice_Scottie_Dogs_p/gimbalsblklicoricescottie.htm) that are gluten free.
I haven't tried the Scotties, but I bet they're awesome. Gimbal's has great licorice jellybeans.

Thanks for the info! The Scottie dogs are so cute! I guess I could have specified that I wasn't necessary looking for black licorice; I've been craving Twizzlers lately. The Gimbal's website looks great, I will probably be spending so much money on candy now! Lol
On the Gimbal's website they have Red Scottie dogs, too. http://shop.gimbalscandy.com/Red-Scottie-Dogs--Bulk-Item/p/GIM-10109&c=GimbalsCandy@RedScotties (http://shop.gimbalscandy.com/Red-Scottie-Dogs--Bulk-Item/p/GIM-10109&c=GimbalsCandy@RedScotties)
I just saw that! I'm thinking I might order a little sampler pack. Kinda pricey for candy, but a once in a while allergen-free treat is worth it. Lol
The Gimbal's Scottie Dogs are not too bad. I'd prefer a stronger licorice taste, but I'll take what I can get. :)
Red licorice was my weakness. I've gone years and years without it. I might just have to cave and buy some.
I have been tempted by this but making candy scares me.

I've settled for Swedish Fish for now. I contacted Gimbal's to ask for ingredients, since I am allergic to so many foods. I never received a precise response, so I had to pass on ordering from them =(
catelyn, let me know if you get brave enough to try that recipe! Lol
