Gluten Free Ice Cream Cones at Graham’s!

Okay, schools out here in the Fox Valley and one of the end of year favorite things my kids love to do is visit Graham’s in Geneva, IL for ice cream.  Let’s just say it is our tradition… after lunch on the last (partial) day of school, we head to get the best ice cream in the area.  Graham’s has always been great about the allergy thing.  While they serve ice cream with nuts, they are always very accommodating by using  clean spoons and letting us know about allergy ingredients.  Their newer establishment, Graham’s 318, just down the street also has a few dairy free sorbet options from time to time.  On this occasion though, we were going for the real stuff!  To our surprise we noticed on the menu board that Graham’s now has gluten free ice cream cones!  It was like magic at the moment of this already greatly anticipated treat!  The nominal addition in price of $0.35 was well worth it to us.

So, for those of you in the Fox Valley area, we highly recommend the gluten free ice cream cones at Graham’s.  You will have to be diligent if you have other allergies or intolerances.  Ice Cream made from cow’s milk is a special treat for us as dairy is a huge sensitivity for all the members of our family.  However, we are able to have it on occasion since our sensitivities are not a full allergy.  Graham’s is another great example of how communities and businesses are trying to help those with gluten intolerance.  I am truly grateful that we have such an establishment in our community!
