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.

      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...

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      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...

      Low iron and vitamin d

      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...

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 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!

      Low iron and vitamin d

      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?

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:
