About Golden Whisk Gluten Free Bakery

I am Marlene, wife, mother of 3 and animal lover of 2 fur babies. Here is my story and how I can help you on your Gluten-Free journey.

Our family moved to Barrie, ON in 2002 from Brampton, ON.  After a life-long struggle with eczema I started a holistic bath & body business called Terra Bella Naturals in 2007 to nourish my skin with all natural ingredients.  I studied Aromatherapy and offered alternative solutions made with essential oils for common, everyday occurrences such as cuts & scrapes, bug bites, minor aches & pains, and spritzes to help you avoid being a bug magnet.

While in Brampton I discovered that I had problems with the tap water because of the added chemicals to make it drinkable.  I still cannot drink tap water without getting a very sore throat or throat infection.  I have become increasingly reactive to modern medicines...both prescription and over-the-counter drugs. By not drinking the tap water and using my chemical free soaps, creams and balms my skin became healthy again with fewer outbreaks.

My gluten-free journey started in 2018 when I developed a rash on the top of my foot that wouldn’t go away and within a year had spread to all limbs and was starting to creep onto my torso.   A skin biopsy confirmed that it was eczema.  I already knew that I was allergic to my environment outside and other things like perfume, medicines and tap water.  So what could be causing these painful blisters, almost like a really bad sunburn?

Eczema is caused by Something, and may be different for each person so I took a very expensive food sensitivity blood test.  I found out that I had many food sensitivities, including foods containing gluten.

My gluten-free food choices from supermarkets were slim, and most tasted like cardboard. 

After searching the web, reading cook books, taking gluten-free baking courses and much experimentation, I now feel that my gluten-free baking today tastes fabulous...definitely NOT like cardboard. My skin cleared up and my digestion is working much better too.

Whether you have Celiac, Crohn's, IBS or other gluten sensitivities I invite you to try my home-baked gluten-free breads and sweet treats, all baked in my government-certified kitchen in Barrie, Ontario, Canada. 

I use the finest quality ingredients I can find,  organic if possible.   I DO use nuts and have adapted my mother’s peanut butter cookie recipe and her date squares recipe to a gluten-free version that brings back childhood memories.

I feel that the most important thing you can do for yourself is to know your own body...what works and what doesn’t.  For instance, did you know that many people with gluten sensitivities also have to avoid dairy?  Why, you ask?  Gluten damages part of the small intestine that makes the enzymes for digesting dairy. 

Bloating, abdominal pain, noxious gas, skin rashes, etc. do Not have to be a part of daily living.  If you are ready to try some delicious gluten-free breads and sweet treats then order through our on-line store or contact us at 705-716-6108 or email to goldenwhisk@rogers.com
