Hey,

Anyone have suggestions for good cake mix? I am looking for Cause You're Special mixes but my grocery stores don't carry it.

Thanks

Jennifer

The Gluten Free Pantry makes the best mixes I've tried so far, in my opinion. The Cake and Cookie Mix is very good. Also the Gingerbread Cake Mix. Their brownies are as good or better than Duncan Hines.

We love the Namaste Choc. cake. YUMMY! :D

I second the Namaste chocolate cake mix. It is the absolute best. If given the choice I would eat this over any of the "normal" brands like Duncan Hines.

I use El Peto. It's a Cdn company. Their white cake mix and chocolate cake mix are amazing!

Cause Your Special is definitely one of my favorites. I just order it from their website:

I also like all the mixes by Arrowhead Mills

I second Gluten-Free Pantry and Namaste is almost better than sex (can I say that here?). I made namaste blondies with chocolate chips at Christmas and everyone gobled them up!

I've recently tried Pamala's chocolate cake mix and it is the best I've tried so far.

haven't tried Pamela's cake mix yet, but her brownie mix makes the best double chocolate cookies!!!

As far as the cake mixes I have tried, the Namaste has the best texture so far. Gluten free Pantry was good, but still a little grainy for my taste. Namaste chocolate cake is VERY rich and moist and just yummy, I used homemade chocolate butter frosting and almost wish I'd used either cool whip, or something lighter to frost with b/c it was so rich.

I just got off the phone with a friend that I had served cake to the last time she was here and I sent some home with her for her mom... she just called to tell me that her and her mom LOVED the cake and want the recipe (they are NOT gluten free) I told them it was Pamela's brownie mix, the recipe for cake is on the bag! The frosting was just a homemade fudge frosting with butter, cocoa, powdered sugar and vanilla... very simple! She just went on and on about how delicious and rich the cake was and could not believe that it was wheat free/gluten free! So, a non gluten-free reccommendation for the Pamela's brownie mix made into a cake!

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      Thanks @Scott Adams. Do you know if Kirkland Signature supplements share facility and production lines with other products containing gluten?  I'm worried that I'll react to this brand just like I did with other gluten-free labelled supplement brands.

      This is a really common area of confusion. Most natural cheeses (cheddar, Swiss, mozzarella, Parmesan, brie, camembert, and most blue cheeses) are inherently gluten-free, and you’re right that the molds used today are typically grown on gluten-free media. The bigger risks tend to come from processed cheeses: shredded cheese (anti-caking agents), cheese spreads, beer-washed rinds, smoke-flavored cheeses, and anything with added seasonings or “natural flavors,” where cross-contact can happen. As for yeast, you’re also correct — yeast itself is gluten-free. The issue is the source: brewer’s yeast and yeast extracts can be derived from barley unless labeled gluten-free, while baker’s yeast is generally safe. When in doubt, sticking with whole, unprocessed cheeses and products specifically labeled gluten-free is the safest approach, especially if you’re highly sensitive.
