*	For those of us that are dairy challenged as well, Chocolate
Emporium <http://www.choclat.com/>  has fancy heart boxes with gluten and
dairy free chocolate candy!  Got to love that!

 

*	Lastly, I just hung up the phone with Hersheys.  The only candy
items they will confirm as being gluten free are the Hershey's plain milk
chocolate bar and the Hershey's plain milk chocolate bar with almonds.
Perfect for Valentine's day treat, they confirmed the Hershey's
<http://www.hersheys.com/products/details/kisses.asp>  Kisses Milk Chocolate
Flavor are gluten free.  Note this is milk chocolate flavor only.   I tried
to get a clarification on their labels and they informed me they will list
all ingredients on the labels but not whether or not those ingredients
contain gluten.  So if you see a label and are not sure that the ingredient
contains gluten, you should call them at 1-800-468-1714 Monday - Friday 9:00
a.m. to 4:00 p.m. ET. 

 

This information is based on calls and web sites based in the US.
