It seems like in NYC cupcake cafes are emerging everywhere (Magnolia's, Billy's, Crumbs, etc.), unfortunately they are off limits to people with Celiac Disease and other food allergies. However, I was reading this week in Time Out New York magazine that there is a new cupcake cafe called, Babycakes. All of their cupcakes are gluten free, egg free, dairy free, and free of refined sugars. They are made with very healthy ingredients too. The bakery is open fairly late (until about 10pm) and is located on 248 Broome Street (between Ludlow and Orchard Sts.). I haven't tried it yet, but I most likely will soon. You can see pictures of the cupcakes at Open Original Shared Link . They look very good! Has anyone tried this place yet? If so, what did you think?

OH MY GOD!!!!!! :D

Im so happy I joined this site!!! You learn new things all the time. I was soooo happy to read about a gluten-free Cupcake bakery!!!!!!!!! I havent had a true cupcake in 7 years!!! How did they taste???

I live in NYC. I love Broome St/Bleeker, etc... Will def. go check it out asap. BTW, theres a place close by called Risotteria and they have lots of gluten-free food (including a killer brownie!!!!). Try it out if possible.

I found about this through a web site called CeliacChicks.

This is soooo awesome to exchange gluten-free places in NYC........

Ive heard of a few others, never tried them though.

Lately Ive been eating the gluten-free food at PF Changs. UNBELIEVABLE gluten-free food---what a feeling eating gluten-free Chinese food that doesnt taste gluten-free at all!!!!!!! :o ).

Im so excited :lol:

To mandigirl-

Hey, I've been to Risotteria--the best gluten-free restaurant in NYC... Risotteria was trained by the GFRAP (Gluten-free restaurant awareness program). The GFRAP has many other restaurants certified as being trained to cook gluten-free:

Someone else mentioned Happy Happy Happy, a bakery not on this list, but one that serves gluten-free food, nonetheless: Open Original Shared Link

The cupcakes at Happy Happy Happy are awesome, but I'll definately try this one to. Funny you should post this though, I was just thinking today about how much I miss Crumbs.

      Trying to read my lab results

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I agree, and hopefully your doctor will contact you soon about the next step, which will likely be an endoscopy to confirm your diagnosis. Do you have celiac disease symptoms?

      Have this rash forming on the back of my legs. Looking for relief outside of going to the doctor.

      By Kirbyqueen · Posted

      Still dealing with this rash on my legs. I've eliminated ringworm (through use of topical ointments). And I also know it's not shingles, as I've never had chickenpox before and I'm still fairly young. Through a lot of online research, I'm leaning more towards dermatitis herpetiformis, eczema, or psoriasis. I've actually got a doctor's appointment in May (finally got some insurance) and I'm going to bring it up then. I'm feeling really hopeful and excited to maybe be getting some relief soon.   Big thanks to everyone for the suggestions and positive thoughts!

      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.
