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?

      This is a very common question, and the most important thing to know is that no, Guinness is not considered safe for individuals with coeliac disease. While it's fascinating to hear anecdotes from other coeliacs who can drink it without immediate issues, this is a risky exception rather than the rule. The core issue is that Guinness is brewed from barley, which contains gluten, and the standard brewing process does not remove the gluten protein to a level safe for coeliacs (below 20ppm). For someone like you who experiences dermatitis herpetiformis, the reaction is particularly significant. DH is triggered by gluten ingestion, even without immediate gastrointestinal symptoms. So, while you may not feel an instant stomach upset, drinking a gluten-containing beer like Guinness could very well provoke a flare-up of your skin condition days later. It would be a gamble with a potentially uncomfortable and long-lasting consequence. Fortunately, there are excellent, certified gluten-free stouts available now that can provide a safe and satisfying alternative without the risk.

      Interestingly, this thought occurred to me last night. I did find that there are studies investigating whether vitamin D deficiency can actually trigger celiac disease.  Source: National Institutes of Health https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7231074/

      Before being diagnosed coeliac I used to love Guinness. Being made from barley it should be something a coeliac shouldn’t drink. But taking to another coeliac and they can drink it with no ill effects and have heard of others who can drink it too.  is this everyone’s experience?  Can I drink it?  I get dermatitis herpetiformis and don’t get instant reactions to gluten so can’t try it to see for myself.

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.

      I will assume you did the gluten challenge properly and were eating a lot of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before your test, but if not, that could be the issue. You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not as common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.
