    Potato Starch Sponge Cake (Gluten-Free)

    Reviewed and edited by a celiac disease expert.

    The following is a recipe for a Sponge cake made with potato starch and it is wonderful served with fresh fruit (sliced strawberries with a little sugar) and a whipped topping or ice cream.

    8 eggs
    1 ½ cups sifted sugar
    1 ½ teaspoons grated lemon rind
    3 tablespoons lemon juice
    1 full cup potato starch
    dash of salt

    Celiac.com Sponsor (A12):
    Separate the eggs. Using an electric mixer beat the egg whites until stiff and set aside. Beat the egg yolks for 2 min. at high speed. Add the lemon juice, sugar and lemon rind and beat another 2 min. at medium speed. Gradually add the sifted potato starch and continue mixing at medium speed an additional 2 minutes.

    Fold the beaten egg whites gently but thoroughly with the egg yolk mixture. Place in a non-greased 2-piece 10 tube pan and bake in preheated 350 degree F for 55-65 minutes or until cake springs back when firmly touched with fingers. Invert pan and cool thoroughly before removing from pan (I use a wine bottle and to prop up the cake to keep from pressing the top down).

    Scott Adams was diagnosed with celiac disease in 1994, and, due to the nearly total lack of information available at that time, was forced to become an expert on the disease in order to recover. In 1995 he launched the site that later became Celiac.com to help as many people as possible with celiac disease get diagnosed so they can begin to live happy, healthy gluten-free lives.  He is co-author of the book Cereal Killers, and founder and publisher of the (formerly paper) newsletter Journal of Gluten Sensitivity. In 1998 he founded The Gluten-Free Mall which he sold in 2014. Celiac.com does not sell any products, and is 100% advertiser supported.

    Celiac.com 02/23/2008 - Before we get to the details of how to make this amazing gluten-free chocolate cake, I think a few words on the latest gluten-free beers are in order.
    You probably already know that Anheuser-Busch has made their very own sorghum beer - Redbridge - which is widely available (if your favorite establishments do not carry it yet, tell them to order it from their distributor!).  This beer truly tastes like it comes from the Budweiser family; during the Superbowl, for example, I was grateful to have the perfect football-watching beer at my fingertips again!
    For this cake recipe though, I needed something with more body and a richer taste.  I explored the options at my favorite little specialty shop in historic Ellicott City, Maryland - Carpe Vinum.  If you are ev...

      Weak positive anti-ttg igA?

      Be sure to keep eating gluten daily until all testing is completed. Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      Finding out I’m coeliac whilst pregnant

      You can always to the gluten challenge later, after your pregnancy, should you need a formal diagnosis. I think it's best to play it safe in this case.

      Weak positive anti-ttg igA?

      Very true. I also suffered from candidiasis which had affected my intestines and toes. I think this might have triggered my gluten intolerance/celiac.

      Weak positive anti-ttg igA?

      Welcome to the forum community, @Jesmar! The HLA DQ2 and DQ8 genes were the original halotypes identified with the potential to develop celiac disease. Since then, other genes have been discovered that apparently afford a predisposition to celiac disease. As is always the case, these new discoveries are not yet common knowledge and not yet widely dispersed...
