I'm getting married in a year. I've been diagnosed celiac for 2 years. My mom believes she is going to have to make the top layer of my cake for us to eat (she's celiac too), but isn't the top supposed to be the bride and grooms? Are there caterer's who can do a gluten free cake? If so, is it unbelievably expensive?

Yes, there are caterers who will make gluten free cake for you. You may have to call around and see but I know you can get a gluten free cake. I'm not sure of the price.

Hey Laura,

I know exactly the situation you are in. I am getting married in less than 3 months (although diagnosed recently and was so sad when I realized I wouldn't be able to eat most of the food that I had been dreaming about for months). Try speaking to your maitre d' about making the top layer of the cake a gluten-free cheesecake or something. That is what they are doing for me. Traditionally the top of the cake is for the bride & groom to save however I plan on serving part to my brother and cousin (also recently diagnosed). No biggie if I don't have the cake to bring home.

I have been making gluten free cakes with a passover sponge cake recipe (on the Maneschevitz box) and chocolate mousse layers. It would be perfect for a wedding cake, or you could go with a cheese cake. You should not be overcharged for a gluten free cake.

This is your wedding so cater to YOUR needs!!! There are many companies that will bake and ship the cake to you. Then you could hire someone to decorate the cake right there where you live. Another suggestion is to make your cake gluten-free, go as fancy as you want but on a smaller scale. Then you can for everyone else go for a slab cake which would be ALOT cheaper and would save some money. I have seen this done a a wedding of a girl I knew who is Celiac. She was able to make her cake real fancy, then had the huge huge slab cake for everyone else.

In this day and age I think it is important to add a line on the bottom of the R.S.V.P. card asking if there is any special dietary needs required. All too often people are invited to a wedding and they are not able to eat because of dietary restrictions. As a result they do not enjoy themselves at the wedding because they are hungry or they have to leave for a while to get something they can eat. Most catering companies are more than happy to accomadate any special dietary needs. After all we should know what it feels like to attend at wedding or any event that calls for a dinner and not be able to eat anything but the salad.

I hope my suggestions are of some help to you. May you wedding be showered with many blessings from heaven above. I wish you a long and happy marriage!!

      Trying to read my lab results

      By trents · Posted

      You have three celiac disease specific antibody tests that are positive: Endomysial  Antibody IGA (aka, EMA), tTG-IGA, and tTG_IGG. Furthermore, your Immunoglobulin A at 55 is low, meaning you are IGA deficient. This one is not an antibody test for celaic disease per se but a measure of "total IGA" levels and if low (yours is low) it can suppress the individual antibody scores and even cause false negatives. So, yes, it definitely looks like you have celiac disease.   Do not yet begin a gluten free diet as your physician may refer you to a GI doc for an endoscopy/biopsy of the small bowel lining for confirmation of the antibody testing. This may help:

      By Bayb · Posted

      Hi, I received my labs via email yesterday and have not heard back from my doctor yet. Can anyone tell me if these results indicate I have Celiac?      Endomysial Antibody IgAPositive  Ft-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgA6  H0-3 (U/mL) - Negative 0 - 3 - Weak Positive 4 - 10 - Positive >10 - Tissue Transglutaminase (tTG) has been identified as the endomysial antigen. Studies have demonstrated that endomysial IgA antibodies have over 99% specificity for gluten-sensitive enteropathy. FImmunoglobulin A, Qn, Serum55  L87-352 (mg/dL) Ft-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgG183  H0-5 (U/mL) - Negative 0 - 5 - Weak Positive 6 - 9 - Positive >9

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      By Aussienae · Posted

      Mine is definitely triggered by inflammation and stress! I do also have arthritis in my spine, but the pain is more in my pelvic area. Im sure i have other food intolerances or other autoimmune isues but the more I focus on it and see doctor after doctor, it just gets worse.  Best thing is get of Gluten! (I also avoid lactose). Try to limit stress and anything that causes inflammation in your body.

      Constant low back, abdominal and pelvic pain!

      By ButWhatCanIEat · Posted

      Good morning,   I got an email about replies to this post. Some of my doctors had blamed a slipped disc for the pain I had and that contributes, but after meeting with a gastroenterologist AGAIN and trying some lifestyle modifications, I found out I have IBS and can't tolerate corn or excessive fructose to any degree. Cutting out corn AFTER having cut out all gluten containing products was a real pain but I feel much better now!

      Isolated DPG-Iga

      By trents · Posted

      So, I contacted Scott Adams, the author of that article and also the creator/admin of this website, and pointed out to him the need to clarify the information in the paragraph in question. He has now updated the paragraph and it is clear that the DGP-IGA does serve the purpose of circumventing the false negatives that IGA deficiencies can generate in the tTG-IGA antibody test.
