The Only (and Best) Gluten Free Stuffing Mixes on the Market!

It is that time of the year again. Sales reports on last year's numbers are floating around the bakery's production floor. There is increased ordering of raw materials. Extra recipe cards and labels are stacked high in anticipation. This could only mean one thing... It is STUFFING SEASON at Aleia's!





I had the pleasure of joining the Aleia's team this time last year. So, with a year of wisdom and experience under my belt I am ready to spread the word on THE ONLY GLUTEN FREE STUFFING MIX on the market today! Orders have already started to be delivered! Look for both varieties -  Aleia's Plain Stuffing Mix and Aleia's Savory Stuffing Mix at a favorite retail store near you! Not sure where to find us?  Look on our website,   http://www.aleias.com/, for retail locations and online sources!

Here are two delicious ways of turning our gluten free stuffing mixes into your family's favorite holiday stuffing!

pan over stuffing. Toss lightly until well mixed. Spoon

  2. Can you substitute this for Pepperidge Farm Stuffing mix as a topping for squash casserole? I am not a cook and being gluten-free for over 7 years now, I am way out of my element! I have been asked to prepare a specific recipe that calls for stuffing mix on the top. Will the non GF people notice the change?
