Faux Mousse!!! Diary, Corn, Gluten, Sugar, Nut…etc etc FREE

I made up a recipe…It’s a Faux Moose. Desperation is the mother of invention in our house. We’ve removed sugar, removed wheat/gluten, of course NO CORN, removed dairy and felt completely desperate for something cold, creamy and dessert-like.

After that the list is expansive, the main problem of this is that when a medical professional is told that there is a corn allergy, they do not think of sugars, acids, preservatives or suspensions, they think of CORN, CORN SYRUP, HIGH FRUCTOSE CORN SYRUP. I have stood many hours trying to keep my son from getting harmed while we are trying to take care of an emergency situation. It’s very scary.
