Hi everyone,

This is my first post. I am getting married in July and was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on what to do with my cake. We ordered a gluten-free 2 tier cake for my fiance and I, and we are going to get a seperate "normal" cake for the guests. What have others done? Should I put it on the same table? Let me know if you have any suggestions. Thanks!

I'm sorry I can't answer your question. I'm new here too. I would love to know the answer though. I am getting married in June. I was thinking of doing a flourless chocolate cake for us to cut and "regular" cupcakes and pastries for our guests.

We are getting a gluten cake for our guests and I am making a gluten free cake for me, my finance (dairy intolerant), and my grandmother (celiac disease). I will probably have it on the same table and it will be well coverd.

I am the only one in my family so far that knows that they have celiac disease. We think that my younger sister does, but she just is too stubern and doesn't want to change what she eats. I am a little nervous about our cake because it will probably be just me and my fiance that will eat it. We are going to freeze the top tier.

If it was me and you want to save on expense why not only have a gluten-free cake and not bother telling anyone that it is.

      Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?

      By Rogol72 · Posted

      A friend of mine is in the bar trade most of his life and has never heard of lines being mixed for different type of beers and ciders. Better to stick with cans.

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      Thanks very much for confirming my suspicion @Scott Adams! That helps a lot because I'm really trying to track down and get rid of these sources of cross-contact and so I'm going to just rule out the draft ciders and hope that helps. Also @Rogol72 its nice to hear you haven't had a problem on that side of the pond - draft cider lines being used for cider only certainly sounds like the right way to do it, but I think that must not always be practiced over here!

      Gluten challenge and Hashimoto's Thyroiditis

      I didn't ask a doctor about this actually. I did ask several doctors a long time ago and they told me gluten has nothing to do with hashimoto's. One of them told me to do a gluten challenge to test for celiac, but at the time I was in graduate school so couldn't afford to be even more ill than I was. If you have the symptoms, I really don't advise you to do a gluten challenge. It messed me up mentally and physically for months. At the same time, I benefitted from doing the challenge in the sense that it convinced me that all my symptoms were truly from gluten - even stuff like insomnia! So now I am terrified to eat gluten, whereas before I would have a little once in a while and not notice anything dramatic.

      I am in a similar situation where I can't feasibly do a gluten challenge but have all the symptoms and I have 2 celiac genes. I'm curious if your doctor advised you to eat as if you had a diagnosis or if they were more dismissive about it.

      Negative, although I had most of the symptoms of celiac disease. I now eat as if I had a diagnosis.
