    It's only gluten if it has flour or anything that is similar to flour.
    Always read the words, on the back of the product :)
    Good luck, and try avoiding it.

    @AldeWicht...Oh, if only it were that simple. After 10 months on a GF diet, I'm still making mistakes and getting sick. :(

    I'm sorry to hear that. It's the same with my cousin. :(

    It's very complicated, takes a lot of research and a willingness to change eating/cooking habits but...so worth it when you get it right! :)

      You need to read labels  every time you purchase any product, as manufacturers sometimes change the ingredients without warning!

            My baby cousin, who is gluten intolerant can't eat gluten products
            Must have been hard time, looking here won't do much help :)
            But I can tell you anyways, the answer is: *drum roll*


            Yes. Usually almond paste only contains almonds and (sea)salt and they don't contain gluten, so it should be gluten free.
