OKay todays my birthday, and I always have :( IceCream Cake : ( but cant :angry: this year do to dairyfree. Soooooo...

If I get one of Pamula's mix's and bake my own dang cake, whats a good alternative for the dairy and egg? I often use 1 1/2 T. water, 1 1/2 T. oil, 1 tsp. baking powder per egg, but is there better option? NOTE: MY WIFE HATES FLAX SEED AND WILL BURN ANYONE AT THE STAKE THAT SUGGESTS YOU USE IT :D I know you can use water for milk 1:1 but is there a better option?

Thanks!

approx 1/4 cup per egg plus add a teaspoon of baking soda to the recipe... you can also add a 1/2 tsp of gluten-free vanilla extract as well...

another version is 1/4 cup silken tofu per egg and a teaspoon of baking soda to the recipe also add vanilla...

Wellyou can add vanilla extra to any baked good realy :) I like the idea of tryin apple sauce rather then oil. I'll have to pick up some 100% pure stuff today and try it.

What about for milk, any ideas beyond rice/soy/almond? If the DariFree stuff arrives today I'll try that, but prbly to soon since the REALY COOL AND AWSOME PERSON OF JERSEYANGEL only mailed it on friday.

You didn't specify if you are making a white/yellow cake or chocolate cake? Pamela's Pancake and Baking Mix has dairy in the mix, I think buttermilk powder. The chocolate cake mix is dairy free.

I have used coconut milk as a milk substitute for a white/yellow cake.

Okay, you've probably already made your cake, but just in case you're still looking, rice milk works great in any cake. You can't taste it. Water will work okay. Here's the link to the white cake recipe in the recipes section - I used water. Use your regular egg substitute or Ener-G Egg Replacer. Cupcakes also work better than larger cakes. You can put them together and frost the top like one big cake.

My grandmother used to make a cake that used OJ in a butter cake mix, then she would boil about a cup of OJ with 1/2 C. sugar until it was thick, slice the cake, but leave it itact, then pour the syrup over it. It was soooooo good. She did this is a pyrex dish, so it wouldn't run everywhere. I would make one now if my hubby wasn't diabetic! :( I'd hate to tempt him!

That sounds delicious :P That would work well, I think, with the GFP Cake and Cookie Mix, done as a cake.

      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.

      IBS-D vs Celiac

      What you’re describing really does not read like typical IBS-D.

      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.

      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.
