THANK YOU FOR YOU HELP. THIS WILL MAKE IT MUCH EASIER FOR HER B-DAY.

ALSO, DOES ANYONE KNOW IF THERE IS A PREMADE FROSTING THAT IS GLUTEN FREE?

Pillsbury has some premade frosting that is gluten free.

At walmart back in the craft section near the cake pans they have a "wedding cake frosting" that is gluten free (double check to make sure though)

I usually just make my frosting with crisco, powdered sugar, vanilla, food coloring and milk. I don't have actual measurements I just play with it until it looks/tastes good. :)

Are ALL duncan hines frostings gluten-free?

Also, what about food coloring? I need to die some frosting yellow for my daughters flower bday cake. And what about colored sprinkles and sugar? I can call, but I'm getting tired of calling for everything and thought someone just might know.

I just copied this from Tootsie Roll's website. Hope it adds a bit of reassurance.

"We are pleased to be able to inform you that, at this time, all of our confections are gluten, peanut and nut product free. We do not use wheat, barley, rye, oats, triticale, spelt or any of their components and that includes our manufacturing process. We do use corn and soy products in the manufacturing of our products.

You need to look at all the labels for frosting. Definitely NOT all of the Duncan Hines ones are gluten-free. I did notice that most of the Pillsbury ones were though and that's what I use. It will clearly state if it contains gluten (likely wheat).

I don't know about food coloring, but I think the sprinkles are ok.

I hope that helped some. I'm new to this too!

Smunkeemom - thank you so much for posting that list. We are trying to figure out what our daughter can and cannot have as well. We called Mars and let her have some m&m's at a local Halloween party - they were minis in a blue bag and did not say crispy but the past three days have been horrible for her. I think we will stay away from those for the future.

That is one big list. I am glad that I can fill up my old Gumball Machine with Hot Tamales, and other stuff like that, and still be safe.

Alex, keep in mind that you are looking at a list from 2005 which should probably be double checked. However, there is a LOT of safe candy available to sooth your sweet tooth.

      Exactly what component was indicative of "weak celiac disease"? Is that a reference to the endoscopy results or the whole picture of the results of the blood test combined with the endoscopy results? Villous blunting is the hallmark of celiac disease.

      Of course, what you breathe in eventually winds up in the gut because it gets trapped in the mucous lining of the airway and throat.

      hey all thank you for your responses. RMJ: Yes I am going to go and buy some N95 masks for work, and I think my employer will reimburse me. I can't re-use them for the maximum 5 reuses unfortunately because I am very sensitive and when I get home I have to wash all my clothes and immediately take a shower. Thank you for your suggestion! Russ H: I have never been formerly diagnosed, and I completely understand the possibility of this being a mild viral infection. I went to get tested for Influenza/COVID and both came back negative, my Primary Care Manager told me it could be a cold. That is always a possibility, however, I have been glutened at restaurants before (5 known exposures within the last 7 years) and the way in which my body gets sick, I can kind of tell them apart from one another if that makes sense. For instance, being gluten-sick for some can be described as flu-like symptoms, and when I get sick with gluten it comes on slower than when I have the flu or COVID. Typically starts out with headache, brain fog, and since I believe I ingested it working with flour (airborne) postnasal drip was one of the first to come along after my exposure as well. Another thing is that I have not quite had a fever but elevated temp (99 Fahrenheit) which is typical for me when I get ill with gluten exposure, followed by aches, sore body, stomach Hell, etc. This is the first time I have ever dealt with it in an airborne setting, but the onset of symptoms are all familiar. I think it is also possible that I am more susceptible to a cold now having been exposed to gluten. I don't have/can't afford private insurance currently and the agency I get my healthcare from works in dubious ways to prevent themselves from having to provide disability payments to veterans, as Celiacs/NCGS is a service connected disability. Everything for the state. Thank you for your comment, it has not fallen on deaf ears. I wanted to thank you all for your concern and time in writing to me; I'm trying to make sense of this because I like this job a lot (very short commute too) and I don't want to quit but constantly exposing myself to gluten is making me more ill, and damaging my immune system. I am still sick writing this. Plan moving forward: I am going to see how the N95 mask work for me, and I will be looking for a job that does not involve handling or being exposed to gluten in the workplace. I truly didn't think this job would be an issue since I was not eating any of the gluten. Thanks again all! I'm happy that I found this forum.

      Sorry but I have to dash for an appointment so little time just now. Your signs and symptoms and response to a gluten-free diet sound like seronegative coeliac disease. Seronegative coeliac disease, Coeliac UK.
