I was listening to the radio on my way home and they always have a little 5 minute session about food or wine, and today they talked about Cherry Brook Kitchen. They make gluten-free cake mixes. The lady on the radio said their Chocolate cake with Chocolate frosting is amazing!

Thought I would share that with you. Here is the link to their website.

Thanks for that! I saw them in Wild Oats and was wondering about them, I wonder if they're any good?

Maybe I'll pick one up and try it, but I've never had much luck with mixes ;)

Well the lady on tha radio...not sure of her name...she's into fine dinning, wine, and stuff like that. She definatly knows what she's talking about. She went to a demo for Cherry Brook Kitchen and said she was impressed on how the chocolate cake with chocolate frosting tasted and she never would have thought that it was gluten free.

My husband is baking one for me for my bday. He is really excited about it. I'll let you know in a couple weeks how it was.

We have seen them several times at Super Target and I have never gotten them. I will try them sometime.

We use the chocolate cake mix alot, for both cake and cupcakes. They are quite good!! And they are dairy, egg, peanut and nut free too!!

Simple to make, it only takes oil, water, and vanilla.

I've tried the chocolate cake mix and wasn't impressed. It was edible, but very dry. I liked their sugar cookie mix, though. My B-da7 was Monday and my mom tried Pamela's choc. cake and it was amazing!!!! She made the rich recipe with fat free sour cream and it was great. I love the Cause You're Special brand yellow cake mix. We do cupcakes with it that are soooo good.

I've tried the sugar cookie mix and liked it as well. I used rice milk and Spectrum Organic Shortening to make them dairy and soy free as well as egg and gluten free......YUM!! I could go for some now. :lol:

I haven't seen their products anywhere around here, but was out of town and picked up a frosting mix. Anyone seen them online to buy?

      Thankyou because I met up with K B with well known bay area hospital once and she said she knows I don't like to take meds, I said thats incorrect, I have issues.Thats the one that said I was deemed " unruly " when she admitted I was celiac when I asked why am I going through this.

      Cristiana, that sounds like a great approach and I will be looking forward to the results. I am in the same boat as you. I don't experience overt symptoms with minor, cross contamination level exposures so I sometimes will indulge in those "processed on equipment that also processes wheat . . ." or items that don't specifically claim to be gluten free but do not list gluten containing grains in their ingredient list. But I always wonder if I am still experiencing sub acute inflammatory reactions. I haven't had any celiac antibody blood work done since my diagnosis almost 25 years ago so I don't really have any data to go by.

      I've been reflecting on this further. The lowest TTG I've ever managed was 4.5 (normal lab reading under 10).  Since then it has gone up to 10.   I am not happy with that.  I can only explain this by the fact that I am eating out more these days and that's where I'm being 'glutened', but such small amounts that I only occasionally react. I know some of it is also to do with eating products labelled 'may contain gluten' by mistake - which in the UK means it probably does! It stands to reason that as I am a coeliac any trace of gluten will cause a response in the gut.  My villi are healed and look healthy, but those lymphocytes are present because of the occasional trace amounts of gluten sneaking into my diet.   I am going to try not to eat out now until my next blood test in the autumn and read labels properly to avoid the may contain gluten products, and will then report back to see if it has helped!

      Hi, I posted before about my son's legs shaking after gluten. I did end up starting him on vit b and happily he actually started sleeping better and longer.  Back to my 4 year old. She had gone back to meltdowns, early wakes, and exhaustion. We tested everything again and her ferritin was lowish again (16) and vit d was low. After a couple weeks on supplements she is cheerful, sleeping better and looks better. The red rimmed eyes and dark circles are much better.   AND her Ttg was a 3!!!!!! So, we are crushing the gluten-free diet which is great. But WHY are her iron and vit d low if she's not getting any gluten????  She's on 30mg of iron per day and also a multivitamin and vit d supplement (per her dr). That helped her feel better quickly. But will she need supplements her whole life?? Or is there some other reason she's not absorbing iron? We eat very healthy with minimal processed food. Beef maybe 1x per week but plenty of other protein including eggs daily.  She also says her tummy hurts every single morning. That was before the iron (do not likely a side effect). Is that common with celiac?
