OK - full disclosure here. I know Marilyn, owner of Marilyn's Gluten Free Gourmet, very well! I met her years ago when I ran the local gluten-free dinner club and Marilyn brought her fabulous gluten-free fruitcake to an event. It was love at first bite with that product, and most everything since! Things that Marilyn has created that I'm particularly partial (or addicted) to include Peachtree Pimento spread, lemon pound cake, buttermilk biscuits and the best cheese straws on the market! Trust me on those - I can't keep them away from glutenoids who can eat regular cheese straws....
Naturally, when I found out that Marilyn was going to be on QVC, I was overly excited. Keep in mind that I have never ever watched anything on that network before - I didn't even know where it was on my channel line up! Anyway, I was able to watch her segment (I'm not sure if there was more than one during the food show she was apart of) and it was simply heart warming to see someone who's worked so hard to make such wonderful gourmet food to the gluten-free set get a spot on QVC! I obviously could not resist placing an order for Marilyn's coffee cakes which are only available through QVC.
My shipment arrived promptly and the packaging alone was marvelous. What a treat to get something shipped so well thought out, instead of a tiny item in a box that an elephant inside that I routinely get from Amazon. Anyway, the real treats were, of course, the amazing cakes which - wait for it - were filled with icing! Yes - coffee cakes filled with just the right amount of icing. I was in complete gluten-free heaven!
If I have to choose a favorite, it has to be the cinnamon, but the cakes are all extremely delicious! My only complaint is that I can't eat one every day - or else I would do just that! If you want a treat for yourself or get a gift for someone else - this 8-pack of mini cakes is an excellent option. Mother's Day is just around the corner, you know ;) You can find out more about ordering here.
Thanks to Marilyn, who thinks we all deserve delicious food, regardless of having to avoid gluten. She helps make the gluten-free world go 'round in such a wonderfully sweet way!
