To avoid soy, select soy-free margarine (or use butter – a milk ingredient if you do not have milk allergy), shortening, and milk alternative. This can be made using all shortening (there are palm oil shortenings available) if you don’t have a safe margarine. If using margarine, be sure to use a stick margarine as tub margarines have too much water content and are whipped to contain more air.
To avoid milk, select milk-free margarine, shortening, or milk alternative. This will work using soy or rice milk.
To make wheat/gluten free, use white rice flour or a gluten free flour blend.
Butter and Margarine: Butter is a dairy product made from cow’s milk. Margarine typically contains milk or soy, but there are milk-free and soy-free versions available.
Gluten: Gluten is a protein found in specific grains (wheat, spelt, kamut, barley, rye). Other grains are naturally gluten-free but may have cross-contact with gluten-containing grains. Look for certified gluten-free products if you need to avoid gluten. Find out more about wheat and gluten substitutions.
Milk and Soy Substitutions: Alternative dairy-free milk beverages and products will work in most recipes. Find out more about milk substitutions and soy substitutions.
