DD has a party at "school" tomorrow for her bday and they are decorating cupcakes. Which gluten-free cake mix is the best tasting? Also, does anyone know if the tubes of decorative frosting are gluten-free? Thanks in advance!

I think I did research on the Cake Mate products and they should be clearly labeled.

As far as cakes go, for Chocolate Cake I use Pamela's Chocolate Cake Mix or her Ultra Chocolate Brownie mix and follow the directions on there for cake, For Vanilla cake I use The Gluten Free Pantry's Old Fashioned Cake and Cookie Mix, this mix is awesome, I also use it to make sugar cookies during the holidays.

I use Pam's as well. I add a cup of flavored yogurt *black cherry gets the most compliments* for an extra flavorful zing. Plus, it makes the cake more moist. Also, I use the brownie recipe rather than the cake recipe because I think the brownie cake comes out more moist than the cake...cake. Also pillsbury chocolate fudge is gluten free. I don't trust the tubes of frosting. Some canned frostings are gluten FULL. Be careful. Even check the one I mentioned.

I like Miss Robens chocolate cake mix and I make my own frosting from Crisco, milk, powdered sugar, and vanilla, you can use food coloring to color it.

I made the Pamelas chocolate cake mix for a party and people didn't believe it was gluten-free.

I made a gluten-free wacky cake that I posted the recipe for somewhere else on the site and it is awesome. Here's the link, it's post #12. I thought it worked best with Carol Fenster's sorghum/corn flour blend. I put in 1/3 cup of applesauce for moistness and used a from scratch butter icing with cocoa. I've made cupcakes as well.

I also think that The Gluten-Free Pantry Old Fashioned Cake And Cookie Mix is great. It would make good cupcakes, I'm sure. I used it to make a pineapple upside-down cake that was SO good--my husband (not gluten-free) loved it! The texture is not dry or crumbly and it keeps well.

I use the recipe for "G.F. Yogurt Chocolate Cake" and one for

"Gluten Free Yellow Cake" from "lesleycooks.Lame Advertisement", any time I need a cake to take to "mixed" gatherings and nobody knows the difference. People love the chocolate cake especially. My daughter in law uses the cake mixes from "Really Great Food Company" in Malvern, NY. Maybe before next year or another family birthday you will get a chance to try one of these recipes.

I use the mixes from The Really Great Food Company. Everything I've ever made from them has been great! Cakes, Brownies, Muffins, I order their gluten-free Flour mixture.

I love them.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By trents · Posted

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I will assume you did the gluten challenge properly and were eating a lot of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before your test, but if not, that could be the issue. You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not as common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By Xravith · Posted

      I'm very confused... My blood test came out negative, I checked all antibodies. I suppose my Total IgA levels are normal (132 mg/dl), so the test should be reliable. Still, I'm not relieved as I can't tolerate even a single biscuit. I need to talk to my doctor about whether a duodenal biopsy is necessary. But it is really possible to have intestinal damage despite having a seronegative results? I have really strong symptoms, and I don't want to keep skipping university lectures or being bedridden at home.

      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.

      New labs are now very elevated

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?
