gluten-free Yellow Cake Recipe


cmom

Recommended Posts

cmom Contributor

I hve several recipes that call for gluten-free yellow cake mix. Went to the health food store yesterday and they had chocolate, spice, vanilla, white, devil's food, etc. but no yellow cake from any brand of gluten-free company. Does anyone know what company makes it or have a recipe from scratch? Thanks!!

It's in my long-term plans to come up with recipes like this. In the short-term, I think the easiest solution is to take a suitable white cake mix and add a few egg yolks for color.

There is an incredible recipe for Yellow Cake in the book by Annalise Roberts, gluten-free Baking Classics.

(also where the recipe for the Coconut Cake and Submarine Sandwich bread came from).

Jillian, how close to "normal" cake does the Yellow cake taste? How about the coconut cake--have you ever made it?

Cause You're Special Yellow Cake Mix is OUT OF THIS WORLD. I've made B-day cakes for the kids and all the relatives unknowingly rave at how great it is. I usually make cupcakes to put in the freezer if I can get any there before they're all gone!!! They're best hot, but good anytime. I ordered them in bulk last time from glutenfreegourmet.com

I ordered this cookbook and made the yellow cake this past weekend. I was delicious!! It's the best flour mixture I've found for cakes (brown rice flour, potato starch, tapioca flour).

I've made both, and they are both incredible!! Everyone that has eaten them has been astonished that they are gluten-free and told me I should start making them to sell. And this is from non-celiac people.

Both cakes are just as good or better than any gluten cakes I ever had.

I went to Border's today to look for Annalise Roberts' book, but all they had was Betty Hagman's. (Incidentally, all their gluten-free cookbooks were not in the cookbook section, they were well-hidden in the ALLERGY section :blink: , and yes, I suggested to the staff that they change that).

Are you allowed to post the recipes for the yellow cake and coconut cake, or would that be violating copyright? (My son't birthday is coming up.)

It's probably not very kosher to do that, but I imagine that if you cited the cookbook it would be ok. Something that I do (and always do before buying a cookbook) is use the search inside option for the book. I searched that book and found the recipe (it's on page 35). I don't think you can print it, but you can copy it down and try it. I just hate buying cookbooks when I don't know if the recipes are any good, so I try to make one recipe first before buying. You could always try that :)

You can post a recipe as long as you list the name of the book the recipe appeared in and the author :)

Ok, here's a link to the book on Amazon:

Open Original Shared Link

On the picture of the book it says Search Inside, click that. Then it's going to ask you for login information (username & password) that you have if you've ordered from them before. Actually, when I did it just now it didn't ask. Anyway, when the online reader comes up, put "yellow cake" into the search box and several links will pop up. The recipe is on pg 35 :)

Nah, it wouldn't let me view the recipe because I haven't purchased anything from Amazon in the past year. :( Thanks, anyway...

      I am doing a gluten challenge right now and I bought vital wheat gluten so I can know exactly how much gluten I am getting. One tablespoon is 7g so 1½ tablespoons of Vital Wheat Gluten per day will get you to 10g You could add it to bean burgers as a binder or add to hot chocolate or apple sauce and stir.

      Raising you vitamin D will increase absorption of calcium automatically without supplementation of calcium.  A high PTH can be caused by low D causing poor calcium absorption; not insuffient calcium intake.  With low D your body is not absorbing calcium from your food so it steals it from your bones.  Heart has priority over bone. I've been taking 10,000 IU D3 a day since 2015.  My doctor says to continue. To fix my lactose intolerance, lots of lactobacillus from yogurts, and brine fermented pickles and saurkraut and olives.  We lose much of our ability to make lactase endogenosly with maturity but a healthy colony of lactobacillus in our gut excretes lactase in exchange for room and board. The milk protein in grass fed milk does not bother me. It tastes like the milk I grew up on.  If I drink commercial milk I get heartburn at night. Some experts estimate that 90% of us do not eat Adequite Intake of choline.  Beef and eggs are the principle source. Iodine deficiency is a growing concern.  I take 600 mcg a day of Liquid Iodine.  It and NAC have accelerated my healing all over.  Virtually blind in my right eye after starting antihypertensive medication and vision is slowly coming back.  I had to cut out starches because they drove my glucose up into the 200+ range.  I replaced them with Red Bull for the glucose intake with the vitamins, minerals and Taurine needed to process through the mitochodria Krebs Cycle to create ATP.  Went from A1c 13 down to 7.9.  Work in progress. Also take B1,B2,B3,B5,B6. Liquid Iodine, Phosphatidyl Choline, Q10, Selenium, D and DHEA.     Choline supplemented as phosphatidylcholine decreases fasting and postmethionine-loading plasma homocysteine concentrations in healthy men +

      @catnapt, Wheat germ has very little gluten in it.  Gluten is  the carbohydrate storage protein, what the flour is made from, the fluffy part.  Just like with beans, there's the baby plant that will germinate  ("germ"-inate) if sprouted, and the bean part is the carbohydrate storage protein.   Wheat germ is the baby plant inside a kernel of wheat, and bran is the protective covering of the kernel.   Little to no gluten there.   Large amounts of lectins are in wheat germ and can cause digestive upsets, but not enough Gluten to provoke antibody production in the small intestines. Luckily you still have time to do a proper gluten challenge (10 grams of gluten per day for a minimum of two weeks) before your next appointment when you can be retested.

      Hello, @asaT, I'm curious to know whether you are taking other B vitamins like Thiamine B1 and Niacin B3.  Malabsorption in Celiac disease affects all the water soluble B vitamins and Vitamin C.  Thiamine and Niacin are required to produce energy for all the homocysteine lowering reactions provided by Folate, Cobalamine and Pyridoxine.   Weight gain with a voracious appetite is something I experienced while malnourished.  It's symptomatic of Thiamine B1 deficiency.   Conversely, some people with thiamine deficiency lose their appetite altogether, and suffer from anorexia.  At different periods on my lifelong journey, I suffered this, too.   When the body doesn't have sufficient thiamine to turn food, especially carbohydrates, into energy (for growth and repair), the body rations what little thiamine it has available, and turns the carbs into fat, and stores it mostly in the abdomen.  Consuming a high carbohydrate diet requires additional thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  Simple carbohydrates (sugar, white rice, etc.) don't contain thiamine, so the body easily depletes its stores of Thiamine processing the carbs into fat.  The digestive system communicates with the brain to keep eating in order to consume more thiamine and other nutrients it's not absorbing.   One can have a subclinical thiamine insufficiency for years.  A twenty percent increase in dietary thiamine causes an eighty percent increase in brain function, so the symptoms can wax and wane mysteriously.  Symptoms of Thiamine insufficiency include stunted growth, chronic fatigue, and Gastrointestinal Beriberi (diarrhea, abdominal pain), heart attack, Alzheimer's, stroke, and cancer.   Thiamine improves bone turnover.  Thiamine insufficiency can also affect the thyroid.  The thyroid is important in bone metabolism.  The thyroid also influences hormones, like estrogen and progesterone, and menopause.  Vitamin D, at optimal levels, can act as a hormone and can influence the thyroid, as well as being important to bone health, and regulating the immune system.  Vitamin A is important to bone health, too, and is necessary for intestinal health, as well.   I don't do dairy because I react to Casein, the protein in dairy that resembles gluten and causes a reaction the same as if I'd been exposed to gluten, including high tTg IgA.  I found adding mineral water containing calcium and other minerals helpful in increasing my calcium intake.   Malabsorption of Celiac affects all the vitamins and minerals.  I do hope you'll talk to your doctor and dietician about supplementing all eight B vitamins and the four fat soluble vitamins because they all work together interconnectedly.

      Hi Jane: You may want to try the D3 I now take. I have reactions to fillers and many additives. Sports Research, it is based in the USA and I have had no bad reactions with this brand. The D3 does have coconut oil but it is non GMO, it is Gluten free, Soy free, Soybean free and Safflower oil free.  I have a cupboard full of supplements that did not agree with me -  I just keep trying and have finally settled on Sports Research. I take NAKA Women's Multi full spectrum, and have not felt sick after taking 2 capsules per day -  it is a Canadian company. I buy both from Amazon. I wish you well in your searching, I know how discouraging it all is. Florence.
