I first heard about this Gluten Free cereal company through Twitter. The concept intrigued me – build your own Gluten Free cereal! Since finding out that I had Celiac Disease cereal has become my fallback meal. Meaning in a pinch I know I can always eat cereal for any meal to get me through. I have tried a number of different Gluten Free cereals, some have been better than others! So when given the opportunity to make my OWN cereal I jumped on it.

How it works:
1. Visit www.customchoicecereal.com/
2. Choice your base of granola, corn flakes or good morning flakes
3. Add fruit, nuts and seeds as you want
4. Name your creation and pay!
The price varies based on what you put in your cereal. This is a great concept because you are not only in control of what goes in your cereal but how much it costs!
The cereal is made the same day if ordered by 3pm or the next business day if after 3pm.
When I found out the company was also local I decided to pick up my cereal so I could meet the owner, Hajo Engelke.

After chatting with Hajo it was clear he is passionate about his company and providing a GOOD Gluten Free cereal option for Celiacs and Gluten Intolerant people. He uses a dedicated Gluten Free facility and even tests all his ingredients to make sure they are free from Gluten before using them.
With a new bag of cereal in hand I of course had to try a bowl. The result was a tasty cereal with quality ingredients. The nuts added a nice crunch where the raisins added a chewy texture.
