Dunno about a mask, I guess you could, but if you do not not and your not careful you will inhale some flour. Thats fairly normal. Not to mention flour has a tendency to cover everything making CC for anything else you make a higher chance. I would recomend you go pick up a cake and not worry about it or risk it. :)

Vincent is right about the flour getting into the air and contaminating every surface it falls on. This is just my opinion, but if I had to use flour, I would use a mask or even a bandana or something to keep the dust from being inhaled.

hmmm. too risky to me, then I'd be mad because I couldn't eat it, SOOOOO sneaky person that I am, I would just make a yummy gluten free cake (I swear Pamela's chocolate brownie mix makes an AWESOME cake that even non celiacs won't be able to resist!) and just not tell people that it is gluten free... Phooey on them. They don't need to eat gluten anyway! Let them eat cake! But let it be gluten free!

Use a mask!!!! You can get 3M brand masks at the hardware store that filter out down to microparticles, I think. There was a thread earlier about a woman's husband who is a manager at Chick-fil-A, and when he is in the back helping, flour is flying around everywhere -- then he gets VERY sick. Good luck, and please take care of yourself . . . Lynne

If I was too tired to cook I would take Vincent's suggestion and go buy one. Otherwise I would do as Nini suggested bake a gluten free cake. I had a gluten-free cake for my birthday and it was so good the gluttons who could eat gluten tried to eat it all. The recipe was from "Wheat-Free, Gluten-Free Cookbook for Kids and Busy Adults" by Connie Sarros.

Harvest Muffins page 51. It's good as muffins and as a cake. We used a bundt cake pan.

I was wondering how far we needed to go with avoiding gluten too. I got a high the other day when I walked through the bakery section at Publix after they had just pulled all of the fresh baked breads out of the ovens. I stood there for a minute, getting my gluten / yeast fix, but then figured I had better leave if I was that overwhelmed by the aroma. Wearing a mask in Publix is out of the question. LOL

I am careful when I cook with wheat for my daughter, but I'm concerned about the CC too.

Wear a mask and gloves. However, I would make a gluten-free cake and not tell anyone it is gluten-free. Why endanger your health and if gluten-free is good enough for you then it is good enough for everyone else.

There is one very good reason NOT to make a gluten-free cake in secret... some ppl are alergic to stuff like RICE and since a gluten-free cake would have ingredents like RICE in it that would not be in a normal cake, it could be dangerous to serve it since no one outside of the gluten-free world would consider rice in a "normal" cake as much of a possiblity.

Just somthing for you to think about. :)

I agree, I agree!!

If you need a gluten cake, just go buy one. It will be much easier, and less risky, all the way around.

      Gluten-Free Diet Linked to Reduced Inflammation and Improved Outcomes in Multiple Sclerosis (+Video)

However, my symptoms improved dramatically with high dose thiamine hydrochloride, Benfotiamine, and Thiamine TTFD.

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing...

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that y...

      The one kind of food I had been buying and eating without any worry for hidden gluten were unprocessed veggies. Well, yesterday I discovered yet another pitfall: cultivated mushrooms. I tried some new ones, Shimeji to be precise (used in many asian soup and rice dishes). Later, at home, I was taking a closer look at the product: the mushrooms were growing from a visible layer of shredded cereals that had not been removed. After a quick web research I learned that these mushrooms are commonly cultivated on a cereal-based medium like wheat bran. I hope that info his helpful to someone.

Incidentally, I don't like quinoa either. Reminds me and smells to me like wet grass seed. When its not washed before cooking it makes me ill because of saponins in the seed coat. Yes, it can be difficult to get much dietary calcium without dairy. But in many cases, it's not the amount of calcium in the diet that is the problem but the poor uptake of it. And too much calcium supplementation can interfere with the absorption of vitamins and minerals in general because it raises gut pH.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D. The dramatic, rapid normalization of stool frequency and form after removing wheat, along with improved tolerance of legumes and plant foods, is a classic pattern seen in gluten-driven disease rather than functional IBS. IBS usually worsens with fiber and beans, not improves. The fact that you carry HLA-DQ2.2 means celiac disease is absolutely possible, even if it’s less common than DQ2.5, and many people with DQ2.2 present later and are under-diagnosed. Your hesitation to reintroduce gluten is completely understandable — quality of life matters — and many people in your position choose to remain strictly gluten-free and treat it as medically necessary even without formal biopsy confirmation. If and when you’re ready, a physician can help you weigh options like limited gluten challenge, serology history, or documentation as “probable celiac.” What’s clear is that this wasn’t just random IBS — you identified the trigger, and your body has been very consistent in its response.
