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.

      Celiac for dummies

      I was just diagnosed at 26 after accidental finding. Any simple tips for newbies? Things a non celiac would never think of? I already went through my prescriptions and identified some medications that have gluten. Is there a beginners guide? Celiac for dummies?

      Would it be rude to ask your age?

      Wow! Thank you @trents I really appreciate the responses. This line of diagnosis has me questioning a lot of symptoms over the course of my life. Very validating and very much a bummer at the same time.

      Wow! You're pretty young to have a diagnosis of SMA syndrome. But youth also has its advantages when it comes to healing, without a doubt. You might be surprised to find out how your health improves and how much better you feel once you eliminate gluten from your diet. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that, when gluten is consumed, triggers an attack on the villous lining of the small bowel. This is the section of the intestines where all our nutrition is absorbed. It is made up of billions of tiny finger-like projections that create a tremendous surface area for absorbing nutrients. For the person with celiac disease, unchecked gluten consumption generates inflammation that wears down these fingers and, over time, greatly reduces the nutrient absorbing efficiency of the small bowel lining. This can generate a whole host of other nutrient deficiency related medical problems. We also now know that the autoimmune reaction to gluten is not necessarily limited to the lining of the small bowel such that celiac disease can damage other body systems and organs such as the liver and the joints and cause neurological problems.  It can take around two years for the villous lining to completely heal but most people start feeling better well before then. It's also important to realize that celiac disease can cause intolerance to some other foods whose protein structures are similar to gluten. Chief among them are dairy and oats but also eggs, corn and soy. Just keep that in mind.
