Help! Need A gluten-free Frosting!

Hi. Does anyone know of a gluten free frosting I can buy at the supermarket? I heard Duncan Hines now adds Barley Malt to their Homestyle Frosting. The kids have a party to attend tomorrow, and I need to make cupcakes for them. Would love to frost them. :blink:

Yes, it's true that the DH Homestyle frosting is no longer gluten-free. I know some of the Pilsbury frostings are safe--not sure which as I make my own. I'd be happy to post a recipe if you'd like.

I used Cherrybrook Kitchen Chocolate frosting for my cupcakes last month. I found the mix at Meijer. I think that Pillsbury does have some gluten-free, but I don't have my list handy. I'll see if I can find info on it for you.

Yes, thank you. I'd love your recipe!

This makes a generous amount (if you need less, just halve the ingredients)

1/2 cup butter (I use all shortening to make it dairy free)

1/2 cup shortening

4 cups 10x Sugar

1 Tsp. Vanilla

About 1/4 cup milk of choice

With mixer, beat shortening, butter and vanilla until creamy. Add sugar and mix thoroughly. Slowly add milk until you get the consistancy you want.

You can make this chocolate by adding 1/3 cup pure cocoa powder (I use Nestle) with the sugar.

Very easy, and no ingredients you can't pronounce :D

jersey, what is 10x sugar? Is that the super fine sugar? Usually frostings use powdered sugar in them and I just really have an aversion to powdered sugar for some reason so it would be great to find a recipe that uses a different type of sugar.

This sounds really good!

Oh Julie, sorry--10x sugar is the same as powdered or confectioner's sugar :(

:(:( is right!

It still sounds like a good recipe jersey even if it has powdered sugar.

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      Thanks @Scott Adams. Do you know if Kirkland Signature supplements share facility and production lines with other products containing gluten? I'm worried that I'll react to this brand just like I did with other gluten-free labelled supplement brands.

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      This is a really common area of confusion. Most natural cheeses (cheddar, Swiss, mozzarella, Parmesan, brie, camembert, and most blue cheeses) are inherently gluten-free, and you’re right that the molds used today are typically grown on gluten-free media. The bigger risks tend to come from processed cheeses: shredded cheese (anti-caking agents), cheese s...

      Kirkland brand (at Costco) is gluten-free and is 2,000 IU.

      Unexpected gluten exposure risk from cultivated mushrooms

      Thanks a lot for your response! Can you maybe specify which kind of cheeses I should be cautious about? Camembert/Brie and blue cheeses (the molds of which are nowadays mostly grown on gluten-free media, though, so I've read, right?) or other ones as well? Also, I was under the impression that yeast is generally gluten-free if not declared otherwise...

      This is a really common area of confusion. Most natural cheeses (cheddar, Swiss, mozzarella, Parmesan, brie, camembert, and most blue cheeses) are inherently gluten-free, and you’re right that the molds used today are typically grown on gluten-free media. The bigger risks tend to come from processed cheeses: shredded cheese (anti-caking agents), cheese spreads, beer-washed rinds, smoke-flavored cheeses, and anything with added seasonings or “natural flavors,” where cross-contact can happen. As for yeast, you’re also correct — yeast itself is gluten-free. The issue is the source: brewer’s yeast and yeast extracts can be derived from barley unless labeled gluten-free, while baker’s yeast is generally safe. When in doubt, sticking with whole, unprocessed cheeses and products specifically labeled gluten-free is the safest approach, especially if you’re highly sensitive.
