Did Someone Say Organic Cookie GIVEAWAY?!
Posted by alisa on May 3, 2009 | 198 Comments
Way back in the day, when I first created the website Go Dairy Free, there were just a few fledgling special diet companies out there. One of the first ones I made contact with was Gak’s Snacks. Jill, the mother of a child with multiple food allergies, created a peanut-free, tree nut-free, egg-free, dairy-free bakery (also vegan and organic) that churned out the most delicious coffee cakes and cookies under the Gak’s Snacks label.
But Jill’s once little company has grown since I first met her … and with that growth, she decided they needed a new identity. So Gak’s Snacks became HomeFree Treats. While I admit to missing the old name, I am elated that Jill hasn’t changed a thing about her products, aside from adding some new ones! Trust me, everyone will want these (just ask Sarah), they aren’t simply for the food allergic (yes, even if you can eat everything under the sun, you can, AND SHOULD enter to win this giveaway).
Oh yes, the giveway…

I would have to say
a. a sinfully delicious but guilt free good old fashioned sugar cookie.
b. oatmeal cranberry cookie
c. something with a hint of lemon (maybe the cookie equivalent of a lemon poppyseed muffin?)
banana with peanut butter chips….. heaven in a cookie!!!
White-Chocolate Macadamia Nut…yummm
oatmeal cranberry
I love these cookies. I am thinking sunbutter. I have made cookies with sunflower seed butter instead of peanut butter and they are delicious. And they’d still be pn and tn free. Yum!
these look good we want to try them
I’m crazy for soft molasses cookies- good ones are hard to find, too.
I’d like to see a coconut flavor added to the mix
I like the offerings they have so far. Hmmm? What else? Lemon (as someone already suggested) would be yum maybe with dried cranberries! Is HomeFree wanting to manufacture without the use of nuts? Peanut butter would be nice to see but if they are trying to avoid common allergens then maybe this isn’t such a prudent suggestion. My partner has Celiac’s we are FOREVAH trying to find good yummy treats that are GF. I will look for this brand. It’s a struggle to find good, ***organic***, yummy snacks. Thank you HomeFree!
How about a coconut mocha chip cookie.
I think a snicker cookie would be delish!
How about a chocolate-mint cookie?
i’ve seen these but never tried them! i’d say peanut butter, but that wouldn’t quite be allergen free
how about one with coconut?
I love lemon cookies, so that would be great
chewy muesli cookie (is that allergen free?)
Soft Molasses are my favorite so I would like that flavor
I like Snickerdoodles. Thanks for the giveaway.
I’d love the chocolate chocolate chip cookies.
They sound so good!
A toffee cookie would be yummy.
I’d love to see a peanut butter cookie with chocolate chips.
oh my goodness!!!! well since these are peanut free cookies.. i will go with- sunbutter with chocolate chunks!
but i really would like the cookies because my boy is struggling.. coping with the fact he cant eat dairy anymore! he would love to try these!
Peanut butter!
Since they already have my favorites (chocolate chip and chocolate chocolate) don’t have another flavor to add, but I would like to have these because cookies are a favorite treat in this family.
Chocolate macadamia nut!
something with almonds or pecans
Ooo! These look sooo yummy! Would you beg Jill to please come up with a Snickerdoodle? After chocolate chip fresh out of the oven, ‘doodles are my absolute favorite cookie.
I want the snickerdoodles!! Yumo!
Peanut Butter
ooooooooooohhh!
how exciting!
ok the cookies she should make are raspberry with white vegan chocolate chips!…I miss these so much since going vegan…
I think a lemon, orange or any citrus flavored cookie might be interesting. Another idea is to have a mint and chocolate flavor.
I also just twittered about this amazing brand at @lindaole!
Gingerbread!
I want to win so the prize can be shipped straight to my son, who is off at college. It’s fun to get packages like this when you live in the dorms!
I see that this isn’t an original answer, but…Snickerdoodles! My favorite non-chocolate treat
I’d like to see a chocolate cookie with fruit in it. Maybe coconut, or orange, or cranberries? Chocolate goes with just about anything so any fruit will do! Thanks for this contest.
chocolate macaroons
Mmmm! These look good! I agree with snickerdoodles… and even an oatmeal choco chip! Love it!
I say go for peanut butter next! Those are always my fav cookies!
-E
Snickerdoodles
Its all about the snickerdoodles. Mmmmm.
Twitter? Check.
I want to win, because they look so delicious!
Walnut & chocolate chips cookies are delicious!!

love to try new things
these are very good
Something with a fruit like cranberries!
Something with pineapple and coconut – like a pina colada cookie! yum!
A traditional sugar cookie (either soft or crunchy) would be a great idea! Or Gingersnaps…
A breakfast type cookie with granola and dried fruit would be great, so it could be a healthy breakfast/snack on-the-go as well as a delicious treat!
