My most favorite thing to have is a cake mix that you buy.......It is from the "Really great food company" there batter tastes so wonderful. They have chocolate, vanilla, and lemon. Yummy :P Yummy.

Oh, if you like cheese cake, I will post a recipe on that. My aunt made it and it was so good. I love cheese cake also, Just let me know. :)

The last few years I have asked for a birthday pie instead of a cake. My mom makes the best pies!! We use the gluten free pantry's pie crust mix and then I request either butterscotch or lemon for the filling (recipe in the better homes and gardens cookbook). SOooooo good!! Much better than a cake :)

My sisters, boyfriends, mom (lol) who is an amazing baker made a delicious chocolate cake using the Namaste chocolate cake mix. I thought the GFP and Pamelas ones where good... this one blows them away!

I've made this a couple of times and it turns out really well. I liked it better with the flour blend below; with the Bette Hagman featherlight mix I thought it was a bit gritty or grainy tasting. My little fella will be taking one of these cupcakes with him on Sunday to a friend's birthday. I should note that my in-laws didn't know it was gluten-free when they tried it. They were both surprised at how similar it tasted to an all-purpose flour cake.

Gluten Free Wacky Cake

1 1/2 cups gluten-free flour mix

1 1/2 tsp xanthan gum

1 cup sugar

3 tbsp cocoa

1 tsp baking soda

1/2 tsp salt

1 tsp vanilla

1 tbsp vinegar

6 tbsp oil (I used canola)

1 cup cold water

Preheat oven to 350F.

In a large mixing bowl, combine flour, sugar, cocoa, soda and salt.

Make three "wells" in the flour mixture. In the first well, put vanilla, in the second the vinegar, and in the third the oil.

Pour the cold water over the mixture and stir until moistened.

Pour into an 8x8 pan.

Bake at 350 until it springs back when touched lightly...about 30 min.

I also added about 1/4 cup applesauce for added moistness.

Carol Fenster's Sorghum Corn flour Blend

makes 4 1/2 cups

1 1/2 cups sorghum flour

1 1/2 cups potato starch OR corn starch

1 cup tapioca starch (flour)

1/2 cup corn flour

I like a homemade Flourless chocolate Torte. Google the recipes for them and you'll get 1000's to choose from. You can add any flavoring you like... I've made it with raspberry flavor, orange flavor, mint *didn't like mint, Coffee flavor, Kaluha flavor, You can figure out your favorite. They are easy enough to make and so varied.

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      My understanding, and ex I erience is that we coeliacs are likely to suffer more extreme reactions from viruses. Eg we are more likely to be hospitalised with influenza. So, sadly, your shingles may be worse because you are coeliac. So sorry you had to go through this. My mother endured shingles multiple times. She was undiagnosed with coeliac disease until...

      Celiac Screening

      Hi all, Looking for some advice. I started having some symptoms this past summer like night sweats and waking at 4 am and felt quite achy in my joints. I was training heavily for cycling for a few weeks prior to the onset of these symptoms starting. I have had low Ferratin for about 4 years (started at 6) and usually sits around 24 give or take. I was...

      Cold/flu or gluten poisoning?

      Cold/flu or gluten poisoning? Hello. I've had another similar episode. I find it very difficult to differentiate between the symptoms of a cold or flu and those caused by gluten poisoning. In fact, I don't know if my current worsening is due to having eaten something that disagreed with me or if the cold I have has caused my body, which is hypersensitive...

      Celiac disease symptoms

      I'm no longer dealing with constipation. I got my liver test last month and it was in normal range. Two years ago I did have a vitamin D deficiency but I'm know taking vitamin D3 pills. Last month I got my vitamin D checked and it was in normal range. I don't believe I've had my choline checked. However, I do drink almond milk eat Greek yogurt on a daily...

      Celiac disease symptoms

      Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS) can be associated with low ferritin and iron deficiency. Once Celiac Disease (1% of the population affected) has been ruled out by tests the next step is to check for Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (10% of the population affected) by eliminating gluten for a trial period, then re-introduce Gluten Challange.

She was undiagnosed with coeliac disease until she was 65. Me at 45. I've had the new long lasting vaccine. It knocked me around badly, but worth it to avoid shingles.

      Hi all,  Looking for some advice. I started having some symptoms this past summer like night sweats and waking at 4 am and felt quite achy in my joints. I was training heavily for cycling for a few weeks prior to the onset of these symptoms starting. I have had low Ferratin for about 4 years (started at 6) and usually sits around 24 give or take. I was doing some research and questioned either or not I might have celiac disease (since I didn’t have any gastric symptoms really). My family doctor ran blood screening for celiac. And my results came back: Tissue Transglutaminase Ab IgA HI 66.6 U/mL Immunoglobulin IgA 1.73 g/ My doctor then diagnosed me with celiac and I have now been gluten free for 3 months. In this time I no longer get night sweats my joint pain is gone and I’m still having trouble sleeping but could very much be from anxiety. I was since referred to an endoscopy clinic to get a colonoscopy and they said I should be getting a biopsy done to confirm celiac. In this case I have to return to eating gluten for 4-6 weeks before the procedure. Just wanted some advice on this. I seem to be getting different answers from my family physician and from the GI doctor for a diagnosis.    Thanks,

      Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS) can be associated with low ferritin and iron deficiency. Once Celiac Disease (1% of the population affected) has been ruled out by tests the next step is to check for Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (10% of the population affected) by eliminating gluten for a trial period, then re-introduce Gluten Challange. Have you been supplementing Iron? How are your liver enzymes? Low levels of ferritin indicate iron deficiency, while  59% transferrin saturation indicates high iron levels.  Possibly indicating Fatty Liver Disease.  Choline is crucial for liver health, and deficiency is a known trigger for Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver.  Some experts say that less than 10% eat the the Food and Nutrition Board established Adequate Intake that are based on the prevention of liver damage. Severe constipation and hemorrhoids may be linked to a bile or choline deficiency.  "Ninety-five percent of phospholipids (PLs) in bile is secreted as phosphatidylcholine or lecithin."  Fatty acid composition of phospholipids in bile in man   Deficiency of these bile salts causes the bile to get thick. Some people with Celiac Disease are misdiagnosed with Gall Bladder bile issues.  Removal of the gallbladder provides only temporary relief. Whether or not celiac disease or NCGS are your issues you need to look at your vitamin D blood level.
