    If you're looking for lots of new Christmas treats to try, Asda certainly has a fabulous haul of free from Christmas products.

    There are loads of new sweet treats on the shelves, and a few really great options for kids too.

    Asda always consistently delivers on it's festive offerings with an excellent range of free from goodies which seems to get better-and-better.

    The 2023 Christmas goodies are already on the shelves so I've started to update this blog post with my best gluten free Asda Christmas finds.

    I'll list the new 2023 products at the top with the offerings from previous years (which I hope will return) underneath.

    This list is always being updated as I find new goodies so please do keep checking back.

      Asda's Amaretto Almond and Apricot biscuits are not good, gritty texture, overly crunchy and little hard bits Ughh! The Speculatius biscuits are also not very nice. Alright I suppose if you are desperate, but there are far far better ones on sale in Germany. As a Christmas biscuit baker , I know Asda could have done better. Havent tried any other products from their Christmas range.

      This is really helpful, but prices and presence of things like oats would be even more useful. thanks.
