I know we've covered this before but I just want to double check. Is Duncan Hines Cream Cheese Frosting gluten free?
I usually only buy Pillsbury, but they didn't have the cream cheese one and I'm making a carrot cake for my brother's birthday (who is also celiac).
I already bought it but just want to double check before using it. All the ingrients seem to be safe.

I don't know the answer to your question, BUT I ahve an awesome easy recipe that I make all the time for Cream cheese Frosting.
Take one stick of butter, softened to room temp
one brick of cream cheese, softened to room temp
Blend those together until smooth, add a dash or two of vanilla and then powdered sugar until it is the consistency you want it.
yuuuuuummmmy!!! On cakes, cookies, fruit, or by the spoonful if you are feeling really naughty!!

From the Clan Thompson.com celiac site:
"January 24, 2007:
Duncan Hines told me today (January 24, 2007) that they no longer consider any of their frostings to be gluten free because they are manufactured in a facility that shares lines with gluten containing products. Also, they would give no information about specific flavors of their frosting when I spoke with them on the phone. They just emphasize that no matter what the ingredient panel says, none of the frostings are gluten free.Food SmartList subscribers should note this change."

Husband has Celiac Disease and
Husband misdiagnosed for 27 yrs -
The misdiagnosis was: IBS or colitis
Mis-diagnosed from 1977 to 2003 by various gastros including one of the largest,
most prestigious medical groups in northern NJ which constantly advertises themselves as
being the "best." This GI told him it was "all in his head."
Serious Depressive state ensued
Finally Diagnosed with celiac disease in 2003
Other food sensitivities: almost all fruits, vegetables, spices, eggs, nuts, yeast, fried foods, roughage, soy.
Needs to gain back at least 25 lbs. of the 40 lbs pounds he lost - lost a great amout of body fat and muscle
Developed neuropathy in 2005
Now has lymphadema 2006It is my opinion that his subsequent disorders could have been avoided had he been diagnosed sooner by any of the dozen or so doctors he saw between 1977 to 2003

Yep, I gave up on store bought frostings completely.
Frosting is easy enough to make so not a huge deal... just annoying.

As a hint, you could mix butter, vanilla and cream cheese together & freeze it for short-term future use if you bake a lot. Or should cream cheese not be frozen?....just a thought.
