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.

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!

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!

      Blood Test for Celiac wheat type matters?

      Wheatwacked, are you speaking of the use of potassium bromide and and azodicarbonamide as dough modifiers being controlling factor for what? Do you refer to celiac reactions to gluten or thyroid disease, kidney disease, GI cancers?

      Blood Test for Celiac wheat type matters?

      In Europe they have banned several dough modifiers potassium bromide and and azodicarbonamide. Both linked to cancers. Studies have linked potassium bromide to kidney, thyroid, and gastrointestinal cancers. A ban on it in goes into effect in California in 2027. I suspect this, more than a specific strain of wheat to be controlling factor. Sourdough...

      need help understanding testing result for Naked Nutrition Creatine please

      They don’t give a sample size (serving size is different from sample size) so it is hard to tell just what the result means. However, the way the result is presented does look like it is below the limit of what their test can measure, so that is good.

      Excess iodine supplements can cause significant health issues, primarily disrupting thyroid function. My daughter has issues with even small amounts of dietary iodine. While iodine is essential for thyroid hormone production, consistently consuming amounts far above the tolerable upper limit (1,100 mcg/day for adults) from high-dose supplements can trigger both hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism, worsen autoimmune thyroid diseases like Hashimoto's, and lead to goiter. Other side effects include gastrointestinal distress. The risk is highest for individuals with pre-existing thyroid conditions, and while dietary iodine rarely reaches toxic levels, unsupervised high-dose supplementation is dangerous and should only be undertaken with medical guidance to avoid serious complications. It's best to check with your doctor before supplementing iodine.

      In Europe they have banned several dough modifiers potassium bromide and and azodicarbonamide.  Both linked to cancers.  Studies have linked potassium bromide to kidney, thyroid, and gastrointestinal cancers.  A ban on it in goes into effect in California in 2027. I suspect this, more than a specific strain of wheat to be controlling factor.  Sourdough natural fermentation conditions the dough without chemicals. Iodine was used in the US as a dough modifier until the 1970s. Since then iodine intake in the US dropped 50%.  Iodine is essential for thyroid hormones.  Thyroid hormone use for hypothyroidism has doubled in the United States from 1997 to 2016.   Clinical Thyroidology® for the Public In the UK, incidently, prescriptions for the thyroid hormone levothyroxine have increased by more than 12 million in a decade.  The Royal Pharmaceutical Society's official journal Standard thyroid tests will not show insufficient iodine intake.  Iodine 24 Hour Urine Test measures iodine excretion over a full day to evaluate iodine status and thyroid health. 75 year old male.  I tried adding seaweed into my diet and did get improvement in healing, muscle tone, skin; but in was not enough and I could not sustain it in my diet at the level intake I needed.  So I supplement 600 mcg Liquid Iodine (RDA 150 to 1000 mcg) per day.  It has turbocharged my recovery from 63 years of undiagnosed celiac disease.  Improvement in healing a non-healing sebaceous cyst. brain fog, vision, hair, skin, nails. Some with dermatitis herpetiformis celiac disease experience exacerbation of the rash with iodine. The Wolff-Chaikoff Effect Crying Wolf?
