Christine you should order the Authentic Foods Brown Rice Flour. Annalise reccomends using this one and I did. I remember her saying that she tried like every rice flour out there and this one gave the best taste and results. I have to say I would agree.

Thanks! I wonder if I have time to get it by mail...the wedding is Saturday! I'm going to check it out right now!

I just use bob's red mill white rice flour, then the potato starch flour, and then tapioca flour in the appropriate measurements....but I have never had any complaints with using the white rice in any of my cakes...........I find them rather yummy ;) and so do the other folks who pig them down ! ha

I think I'm going to have to use Bob's this time because it's going to cost me $20 for 3 lbs. of Authentic Foods flour and that's with standard delivery!! There's no guarantee that I'll even get it in time for the wedding. I've been calling local health food stores but so far no luck. It's good to know that yours still turned out good with Bob's. When I have more time, I'll try the Authentic Foods flour, too!

Jessica, you give me hope! Even if the cake didn't get eaten, just having made it was a triumph. I'm a baking fiend & newly diagnosed Celiac. After reading your post I just ordered the Annalise Roberts book & can't wait to bake from it! Thanks for being so adventurous-- you inspire me!

Leah-

Don't worry, the cake is TOTALLY being eaten. As a matter of fact, I had a beautiful piece of cake for breakfast this morning! :lol:

I'm glad I could inspire you, I inspired myself also. It was one of those "Hey I CAN do this moments" in gluten free baking. I know you will LOVE the book. It is amazing. Enjoy!

I wanted to let you all know that the coconut cake turned out beautifully for the wedding! I think it is even better than the gluten version I used to make! The bride and her sister want the recipe and none of the guests even suspected it was "different." Thanks to all who gave advice and Jessica I am forever grateful to you for directing me to Annalise's cookbook!! I can't wait to make more of her recipes.

BTW, I used Bob's brown rice flour for the cake. I can't imagine how good it would be with the superfine flour from Authentic Foods!

I just got the superfine flour (yikes, it is pricy!) & can't wait to try this cake. Next week I'll finally have both of my sons home for the Summer, & that calls for a celebration!

Love the pix, love the inspiration, love you guys!

I know this is an old post, but I found this great article with information about gluten free wedding cake options and ideas that I thought I would share: Open Original Shared Link

      Scott, I am mostly asymptomatic. I was diagnosed based on high antibodies, low ferritin (3) and low vitamin D (10). I wasn't able to get in for the biopsy until 3 months after the blood test came back. I was supposed to keep eating gluten during this time. Well why would I continue doing something that I know to be harmful for 3 more months to just get this test? So I did quit gluten and had the biopsy. It was negative for celiacs. I continued gluten free with iron supps and my ferritin came back up to a reasonable, but not great level of around 30-35.  Could there be something else going on? Is there any reason why my antibodies would be high (>80) with a negative biopsy? could me intestines have healed that quickly (3 months)?  I'm having a hard time staying gluten free because I am asymptomatic and i'm wondering about that biopsy. I do have the celiacs gene, and all of the antibody tests have always come back high. I recently had them tested again. Still very high. I am gluten free mostly, but not totally. I will occasionally eat something with gluten, but try to keep to a minimum. It's really hard when the immediate consequences are nil.  with high antibodies, the gene, but a negative biopsy (after 3 months strict gluten-free), do i really have celiacs? please say no. lol. i think i know the answer.  Asa

      I have had a long year of testing unfortunately still not diagnosed , although one thing they definitely agree I'm gluten intolerant, the thing for me I have severe back troubles they wouldnt perform the tests and I couldn't have a full MRI because I'm allergic to the solution , we tryed believe me  I tryed lol , another was to have another blood test after consuming gluten but it makes me so bad I tryed it for only a week, and because I have a trapped sciatic nerve when I get bad bowels it sets that off terribly so I just take it on myself now , I eat a gluten free diet , I'm the best I've ever been , and if I slip I know it so for me i have my own diagnosis  and I act accordingly, sometimes it's not so straight forward for some of us , for the first time in years I can plan to go out , and I have been absorbing my food better , running to the toilet has become occasionally now instead of all the time , i hope you find a solution 🤗

      I was undiagnosed for decades. My ferritin when checked in 2003 was 3. It never went above 10 in the next 20 years. I was just told to "take iron". I finally requested the TTgIgA test in 2023 when I was well and truly done with the chronic fatigue and feeling awful. My numbers were off the charts on the whole panel.  they offered me an endoscopic biopsy 3 months later, but that i would need to continue eating gluten for it to be accurate. so i quit eating gluten and my intestine had healed by the time i had the biopsy (i'm guessing??). Why else would my TTgIgA be so high if not celiacs? Anyway, your ferritin will rise as your intestine heals and take HEME iron (brand 4 arrows). I took 20mg of this with vitamin c and lactoferrin and my ferritin went up, now sits around 35.  you will feel dramatically better getting your ferritin up, and you can do it orally with the right supplements. I wouldn't get an infusion, you will get as good or better results taking heme iron/vc/lf.

      Scott, I agree with everything you said except the term "false negative". It should be a "true negative" just plain negative. I actually looked up true/false negative/positive as it pertains to testing. The term "false negative" would be correct if you are positive (have anti-bodies) and the test did not pick them up. That would be a problem with the "test" itself. If you were gluten-free and got tested, you more than likely would test "true" negative or just negative. This means that the gluten-free diet is working and no anti-bodies should be present. I know it sounds confusing and if you don't agree feel free to respond.

      I realized it is actually important to get an official diagnosis because then insurance can cover bone density testing and other lab work to see if any further damage has been done because of it. Also, if hospitalized for whatever reason, I have the right to gluten-free food if I am officially celiac. I guess it gives me some legal protections. Plus, I have 4 kids, and I really want to know. If I really do have it then they may have increased risk.
