Children with Food Allergies

[Sally]

My daughter has an array of food allergies from sensitivity to food colourings to uncomfortable stomach after eating too much bread. She use to be allergic to milk but seems to have grown out of that. I hope i can learn something in the forum for parents with allergic children this Friday - hope to see some of you there.

Hi there. My name is Amanda. Have you seen India Tree's Natural Colours range, which include natural food colourings and cake decorations. They are made from vegetable colourings and have no artificial flavourings or additives. I hope this is of interest to you. I know from my own exhausted efforts that you can not buy any natural colourings or cake decorations anywhere in the UK only on line. As a mother of three who bakes a lot I appreciate the importance of clean natural ingredients.

I am sure they sell natural food colouring in our local tesco and asda. I am not sure about decorations though. We do bake but we don't add colourings to anything and we decorate with dairy and nut free chocolate and my 2 are happy with that. We use fruit to decorate also, just depends what we are making.

If you really have a solution, then why not post it here for everyone to see.
