Celebrity chef Luke Hines and local Bart Beek, from Essence BBQ Lab, will be onstage presenting gluten free meal options across the weekend.Meet @LaTorilleriaau Since 2013, Gerardo Lopez, ’The Taco Guy’ and host of Aussie TV show ’This is Mexico’, and Diana Hull have really paved the way for authentic Mexican cuisine in Australia. They were awarded Small Business of the Year and Innovators of the Year at the Delicious Awards and continually support diverse community groups.

“Real Mexican food is our passion and we do it well. Our nixtamal corn tortillas and totopos celebrate the traditions of Mexican cuisine and taste like real food from the villages of Mexico,“ Gerardo said.“We’ve perfected our artisan recipes and traditional tortilla-making process with the help of our co-founders, fourth generation nixtamal tortilla-maker and passionate team.

Our award-winning products are crafted with real ingredients and we don’t take any shortcuts when creating our authentic products. We feel honoured to be featured on top Australian restaurant menus and in independent grocery stores across the country.“We have a unique product that is crafted traditionally every day and very happy to share more around the nixtamal process as, while it’s a fairly new concept to Australia, it’s an indigenous millennia concept that is part of the UNESCO Mexican heritage cuisine list.

Nixtamal tortillas are naturally gluten-free.” Meet @Glutenfree_nomad The @glutenfree_nomad flour from Andy and Mel, began with Andy being diagnosed with coeliac disease more than five years ago at 28 years old. Not having any family or friends knowing about coeliac disease, he had to make some big changes when it came to food and eating out.

“We know how challenging it can be to find gluten free options and we wanted to empower others with coeliac disease or those following a gluten free lifestyle to feel secure and never feel like they were missing out. That vision led to the creation of Gluten Free Nomad – crafted from a premium blend of natural gluten-free ingredients, the flour provides a seamless wheat flour substitute, delivering the same taste, texture and rise for all your favourite baked goods,” explained Andy.But tickets at : glutenfreeshow.
