I know Betty Crocker frostings are not gluten-free but are there any in the store that are? I want to frost sugar cookies, thanks.

Duncan Hines, but only the Homestyle. THe Whipped Frosting is not. It's great on the Whole Foods Gluten Free Bakehouse cakes.

I just made frosting from scratch for icing gingerbread men and it was soooo easy! Get a box of powdered sugar and follow the directions on the back - it's just a few ingredients, and you just need a spoon to mix it. Soooo easy and sooooo delicious :)

I gotta be honest here, making your own icing is a snap, and it tastes a lot better too! I hate canned icing. Go to www.wilton.com and look up the recipe for buttercream icing. Just make sure all your ingredients are gluten-free (icing sugar, namely), and you will be amazed at how easy and good it is!

This is what I used to frost my cookies this year:

1/2 cup butter or margerine at room temp.

1/2 cup shortening

4 cups 10x Sugar

1 tsp. vanilla

enough milk (reg., rice, soy, whatever)

Cream butter and shortening and vanilla. Beat in sugar. Add milk as needed.

Delicious, easy and enough to frost 2 lg. batches of cookies.

These are all great ideas. It's nice to have several to pick from. Thanks everyone!!

      My 5yo was diagnosed with celiac last year by being tested after his sister was diagnosed. We are very strict on the gluten-free diet, but unsure what his reactions are as he was diagnosed without many symptoms other than low ferritin.  He had a school party where his teacher made gluten-free gingerbread men. I almost said no because she made it in her kitchen but I thought it would be ok.  Next day and for a few after his behavior is awful. Hitting, rude, disrespectful. Mainly he kept saying his legs were shaking. Is this a gluten exposure symptom that anyone else gets? Also the bad behavior?

      Not necessarily. The "Gluten Free" label means not more than 20ppm of gluten in the product which is often not enough for super sensitive celiacs. You would need to be looking for "Certified Gluten Free" (GFCO endorsed) which means no more than 10ppm of gluten. Having said that, "Gluten Free" doesn't mean that there will necessarily be more gluten than "Certified Gluten" in any given batch run. It just means there could be.

      I think it is wise to seek a second opinion from a GI doc and to go on a gluten free diet in the meantime. The GI doc may look at all the evidence, including the biopsy report, and conclude you don't need anything else to reach a dx of celiac disease and so, there would be no need for a gluten challenge. But if the GI doc does want to do more testing, you can worry about the gluten challenge at that time. But between now and the time of the appointment, if your symptoms improve on a gluten free diet, that is more evidence. Just keep in mind that if a gluten challenge is called for, the bare minimum challenge length is two weeks of the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten, which is about the amount found in 4-6 slices of wheat bread. But, I would count on giving it four weeks to be sure.

      Are Bobresmill gluten free oats ok for sensitive celiacs?

      thank you both for the insights. i agree, im going to back off on dairy and try sucraid. thanks for the tip about protein powder, i will look for whey protein powder/drinks!   i don’t understand why my doctor refused to order it either. so i’ve decided i’m not going to her again, and i’m going to get a second opinion with a GI recommended to me by someone with celiac. unfortunately my first appointment isn’t until February 17th. do you think i should go gluten free now or wait until after i meet with the new doctor? i’m torn about what i should do, i dont know if she is going to want to repeat the endoscopy, and i know ill have to be eating gluten to have a positive biopsy. i could always do the gluten challenge on the other hand if she does want to repeat the biopsy.    thanks again, i appreciate the support here. i’ve learned a lot from these boards. i dont know anyone in real life with celiac.
