Over the last 5 years, gluten free products have become significantly easier to find in Copenhagen. Does this mean you can find them in every store? No. But luckily, you literally have about 50 more options than you did just a few years back. Nearly all stores now carry gluten free flours and rice cakes, and most carry GF pasta. Even the worst Netto in all of Copenhagen (my local grocery store on Dampfærgegade) carries GF bread mixes.
I would recommend finding gluten free knackebrød (at Meny, Irma, Føtex or select Super Brugsens). It is a long, crispy cracker with a really nice flavor. They travel well and work as a great bread alternative.

The best grocery store for gluten free goodies is Super Best. They have an entire section dedicated to gluten free goods. They have everything from gluten free cookies to soy sauce.
Irma is an upper-end grocery store that can be found all over the city. They have higher prices but also higher quality products and have one the largest selection of gluten free products in the country.
Rema 1000 is a budget chain and has gotten a lot more gluten free products just in the last few months. They do not have a lot of pre-made goods, but is a good place to buy different flours and mixes.
Another good bet is Super Brugsen. However, not all Super Brugsen stores have gluten free products. You may want to call to check. If they do have the gluten free line, then you can count on finding mixes, cookies, pasta, and other staples.
Most Kvickly stores have a good variety of gluten free products as well. Like Super Brugsen, you may want to call to ask before going.
Bilka reportedly offers a small variety of gluten free products, although I have never been to check it out.
Føtex finally got some gluten free products. They have really inexpensive GF pasta, but everything else in their store is overpriced. I personally don't like this place, probably because I felt they were behind-the-times to charge so much for food and not offer a single gluten free option for years (other than naturally gluten free products, of course).

Can look at my blog and see prices, and nutritional facts of healthy, low fat food at different grocery stores.
