Is it still celiac safe if I just don’t order the crumbs?
Anonymous
The The chocolate frappuccino has cookie crumbles on top. It is NOT celiac safe. I have celiac this could make me sick please to remove cookie crumbles for it to be celiac safe

I live in america and I have celiac. I have never gotten sick form outs but my mom has.
Savannah
The vanilla bean drinks (due to the powder) and macchiatos aren’t gluten free, so avoid if you’re a celiac.
STOP IT
pls get some help, i have the vanilla bean creme frappe all the time, and not once have i ever had a problem. My goodness, people like this who just induce anxiety for no reason make me so mad.
:)
Hi, I’m celiac too, and i have starbucks all the time but no issues. I promise u that starbucks is very careful and you do not have to freak out. I think that this client may have had other issues, because my celiac is extremely severe, and I have never had any problems with starbucks 🙂
Traveling Mosaic
My dietician actually told me to stay away from Starbucks as they do not guarantee anything on their menu regarding allergies. She had a Celiac client who didn’t give up her daily Starbucks drink and was still dealing with all the issues. Once she gave it up, she started to feel better. Basically, plain coffee and no syrups. Flavored coffees have “natural flavors” which are potential hidden gluten traps as well.

I had been ordering my daughter the vanilla bean creme frap….a barista showed me the actual packaging of the vanilla bean powder they use to make it and clear as day on the label it says may contain wheat!!! BEWARE!!!

It is gluten free
Jennifer Duffey
I was told none of the hot drinks were gluten free do to cross contamination.
I aslo don’t get why the Carmel sauce isn’t gluten free. I looked at ingredients looks safe. Is it due to manufacturing equipment?

Yeah, I thought it was pretty good but can’t find it anymore. Starbucks lost me.

Starbucks caramel doesn’t list any gluten containing ingredients and Nima just released a report that the Caramel Frappe was 100% gf.

Oats are technically not safe for coeliacs. You’re only meant to eat oats if you’ve had a gastroscopy after undertaking the oat challenge, because the form of gluten in them is unsafe for 1 in 10 coeliacs. And you can only have certified GF oats such as Red Mill. The US is pretty slack when it comes to oats and GF, but I’m Australia where I’m from we take it seriously :”) I hope this helps!

Killed it.
