Andean Dream Quinoa Cookies
Many people are fond of cookies and so am I. Of course there are gluten free options available, but not all of them are great. This brings me to the product reviewed today: Andean Dream Quinoa Cookies.
These cookies are made with organic Royal Quinoa, grown only in the Bolivian Andes.
The cookies are manufactured in Bolivia for Andean Dream, LLC. The bakery, La Francesa, S.A, established in 1952, is one of Bolivia’s premiere bakeries with three generations of experience. More about the company can be read here. Unfortunately there is no information if the bakery is dedicated gluten free.
Experience:
These wheat and gluten free cookies come in five flavors: Orange Essence, Chocolate Chip, Cocoa-Orange, Raisins & Spice and Coconut. I tried all but Raisins & Spice; I’m not so much into raisins. My clear favorite is Chocolate Chip, followed by Cocoa-Orange.
The cookies are individually wrapped so it is easy to bring them along. Just toss them in your bag and off you go. The other advantage is that the cookies won’t go stale after you opened the package.
Taste and texture of these cookies is very good. Like regular cookies, which is nice and cannot be said about every gluten free product. The flavors are great – not too sweet, not too flat. I highly recommend these cookies, but they are not cheap.
Where to Buy:
You should be able to find Andean Dream products at your local health food store. I buy them at Whole Foods. You can also order them online but I found the price to be better at my local store. Your experience could be different though.
