Easy Bake Ovens

Food-Tek the cool company that makes microwave gluten free cakes and such is now in the end process of putting out Gluten Free Mixes for Easy Bake ovens!! They are also the company that makes the gluten filled mixes.

How awesome is it that a little kiddo can now not feel like an outcast and use their easy bake oven. I know when I was a little girl that was one of my favorite toys. Cooking a little cake with my little lightbulb powered easy bake oven!! :lol:

Here is the e-mail that I got from them this morning.

Hi Jessica:

I've been reading your posts to the group and to Celiac.com. It's nice to know we have another fan!

We have developed and manufactured items for Easy-Bake (and a number of other "food-toys") for over 15 years. Currently, we putting the finishing touches on a line we're calling "Quick-Bake Kids" - gluten-free mixes formulated and packaged for use in an Easy-Bake/toy oven. We'll be rolling out cookie, cake, and brownie mixes in the next 4-6 weeks.

Stay tuned, and thanks again for your enthusiasm!

Regards,

Victor Davila

Awesome! I was just talking to DH about Easy Bake Ovens the other day! Don't remember why...oh, it was because I said I used it like, twice, and then asked my mom to buy me real cake mixes and I'd just do it in the real oven :P

I was already using the real oven and stove at this point. :rolleyes:

That's awesome, though!!!

I was talking to my mom about this today. She goes "oh ya I remember your baking days". We would have a million tiny little cakes everywhere in the house!! ha She said that the little refill packages used to be so expensive that she refused to buy them for me. She would just mix up a regular cake mix and let me bake that in my oven. Thus that is probably why we had a million little cakes......had to bake that many to use up the batter ;)

yeah!!! i had considered trying to make my own gluten-free mixes for the easy bake oven.

debmidge Rising Star

great idea!

:) That is a great idea!!! My mom didn't buy the expensive mixes either, so it was scratch cake with mine or invisible cake. I also had a Suzie Homemaker oven--am I showing my age or what?!

And for all you Easy-Bake Oven fans, there's a cookbook: the Easy-Bake Oven Gourmet, by David Hoffman, with recipes from people like Bobby Flay, Caprial Pence, Mollie Katzen, etc. It's a hoot.

I remeber hearing at one time that 1-2-3 Gluten Free was going to make some easy bakc oven mixes... I think that would be so awesome... I see the Easy Bake Ovens all the time at the store and have thought about getting one for my daughter... I had one when I was little and I loved it.

I haven't been on-line for awhile, but was thrilled to see this news! We bought my daughter an easy-bake oven for Christmas and then in March she was diagnosed with celiac disease. We've "stashed" her oven while I re-learn to bake so I can help her with it. I felt terrible! She'll be thrilled that she can cook again!!!

I'm pretty sure you could buy the mixes that they already sell and try them out in the oven if you don't want to wait for the "official" gluten-free version of the easy bake brand.

Just in case:

The following recall has been announced: _About 985,000 Easy-Bake Ovens sold since last May, manufactured by Easy-Bake, a division of Hasbro Inc., because children can get their hands or fingers caught in the oven's opening, which poses an entrapment or burn hazard. The company has received 29 reports of children getting their fingers or hands caught in the product, including five reports of burns. The recalled plastic ovens are purple and pink. They resemble a kitchen stove with four burners on top and a front-loading oven. "Easy Bake" is printed on the front of the electric toy, while "Hasbro" and model number 65805 are stamped into the plastic on the back. The recall does not include Easy-Bake Ovens sold before May 2006. Toys "R" Us, Wal-Mart, Target, KB Toys and other retailers nationwide sold the toy from May 2006 through February 2007.

      I followed the Autoimmune Protocol Diet which is really strict for a while, but later other foods can be added back into your diet.  Following the AIP diet strictly allows you digestive system to heal and the inflammation to calm down.  Sort of like feeding a sick baby easy to digest food instead of spicy pizza.   It's important to get the inflammation down because chronic inflammation leads to other health problems.  Histamine is released as part of the autoimmune response to gluten.  High histamine levels make you feel bad and can cause breathing problems (worsening asthma), cardiovascular problems (tachycardia), and other autoimmune diseases (Hashimoto's thyroiditis, diabetes) and even mental health problems. Following the low histamine version of the AIP diet allows the body to clear the histamine from our bodies.  Some foods are high in histamine.  Avoiding these makes it easier for our bodies to clear the histamine released after a gluten exposure.   Vitamin D helps regulate the immune system and calm it down.  Vitamin D is frequently low in Celiacs.  The B Complex vitamins and Vitamin C are needed to clear histamine.   Supplementing with essential vitamins and minerals boosts your intestines' ability to absorb them while healing.   Keep in mind that gluten-free facsimile foods, like gluten-free bread, are not enriched with added vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts are.   They are empty calories, no nutritional value, which use up your B vitamins in order to turn the calories into fuel for the body to function.   Talk to your doctor or nutritionist about supplementing while healing.  Take a good B Complex and extra Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine (shown to promote gut health).  Most B Complex vitamins contain thiamine mononitrate which the body cannot utilize.  Meats and liver are good sources of B vitamins.   Dr. Sarah Ballantyne wrote the book, the Paleo Approach.  She's a Celiac herself.  Her book explains a lot.   I'm so glad you're feeling better and finding your balance!

      So I should not eat my gluten free bread?  I will try the vitamins.  Thank you all so very much for your ideas and understanding.  I'm feeling better today and have gathered back my composure!
    • knitty kitty
      Some people prefer eating gluten before bed, then sleeping through the worst symptoms at night.  You might want to try that and see if that makes any difference.   Several slices of toast for breakfast sounds okay.  Just try to work up to the Ten grams of gluten.  Cookies might only have a half of a gram of gluten.  The weight of the whole cookie is not the same as the amount of gluten in it.  So do try to eat bread things with big bubbles, like cinnamon rolls.   Yeah, I'm familiar with the "death warmed over" feeling.  I hope you get the genetic test results quickly.  I despise how we have to make ourselves sick to get a diagnosis.  Hang in there, sweetie, the tribe is supporting you.

      Thank you, a little expensive but glad to have this source.

      @knitty kitty  Thank you very much for the advice. I did the exam this morning, my doctor actually suggested me to take something called "Celiac duo test" in which I first do the genetic test and if it's positive, then I'll have to do the antigen blood test. I have to attend 1 month until my results are ready, so I have some weeks to increase the amount of gluten I eat daily. It will be hard because my health is not the best right now, but I also did a blood test to cheek my nutritional deficiencies. The results will arrive on Tuesday, so I can ask my doctor what should I do to control my symptoms and blood levels during this month. For now I'm resting and paying attention to what I eat— at least I don’t look like a vampire who just woke up, like I did yesterday. I'm still scared because is the first time I've felt this sick, but this is the right moment to turn things around for the better.  I realized that if I eat gluten at lunch I cannot finish the day properly, I become severely tired and sometimes my stomach hurts a lot - let's not talk about the bloating that starts later. Do you think is it ok to eat gluten just in the morning, like some cookies and slices of bread for breakfast?
