Oooh…thank you! I will try them. I’ve been turned off by many of the mixes and yeah, at those prices, there’s only so much experimenting I’m willing to do.

We’ve also been happy with [Chebe](http://www.chebe.com/)rolls, made with shredded cheese - the cheese holds the space in the bread while it’s baking, and then melts when the structure is solid, leaving nice little holes and lightness in the final product. FYI.

But yeah…there’s no such thing as a great loaf of bread that’s gluten free. There’s only great \*for \*gluten free, y’know?

I like chebe because they are chewy - and you don’t get much chewy in GF foods. They are also fairly reasonably priced. But I hate to bother to make them - and they don’t “keep” well. The bread stick though are something I can make that my gluten consuming family will devour. If I make a pan of GF brownies - I eat a pan of GF brownies.

These are expensive and probably not necessary for your daughter (who is what now, six or so), but WONDERFUL [Try This Tasty Recipe for Gluten-Free Amaretti Cookies](http://glutenfreecooking.about.com/od/dessertsandsweets/r/amaretticookies.htm)

We’ll try 'em!

Yeah, Chebe (like regular homebaked rolls, actually) don’t keep well. But you can freeze gluten free cookies, brownies and cupcakes, so you don’t have to eat them all at once. I make up gluten free cupcakes from the Betty Crocker gluten free box mix (v. good) and even frost them and put some sprinkles on, then freeze them. That way when there’s a birthday or other celebration at school (yes, she’s 6 and in kindergarten), I don’t have to bake the night before, and she has her gluten free treat when the other kids share the cupcakes the kid brings in!

I put it in on a lid of a little tupperware like container, and then use the container as the “lid” - just the whole shebang upside down - and it’s a little cupcake holder! Send it frozen, and it’s thawed by the time to eat it, and easy to get out without smooshing the frosting everywhere.
