Im dying for my strawberry cake recipe and I used a white cake mix. I dont really want to make a homemade cake (yeah a bit lazy lately ;) ) I have seen namaste cake mix, has anyone tried that and did it taste good? If not please any others you would recommend.

If anybody wants the recipe let me know and I'll post it :)

Also if its a little bland flavor thats okay, Im going to add a bunch of other things to it. I just want to find one without a unpleasant taste.

Gluten Free Pantry Cake and Cookie Mix is very good :)

I make pineapple upside-down cake with it that is delicious, so it sounds like it would be good for your strawberry cake!

Thanks so much :)

I'll pm her and order the other one. Its a family favorite recipe of ours. Here's the recipe,

Strawberry Cake-

Make the white cake mix as directed on the box. While its fresh out of the oven poke holes all throughout the cake about an inch apart, I use the end of a wooden spoon. Mix a small box of strawberry jello with the hot water as directed. In place of the cold water added exchange it for a can of strawberry pop. Pour it over the cake and let it set in the fridge for a couple of hours. Make vanilla pudding and spread it over the top. Spread cool whip over that.

Optional- For more of a strawberry flavor you can blend up strawberries and spread them over the cake before the pudding is added.

Its best stored in the fridge

Im glad to post it :)

Its so easy!

You use a box of white cake mix and dont add any extra ingredients written on the directions. Mix a can of orange crush pop ( can use diet pop also) mix it and bake according to the directions. When cooled mix cool whip with powdered orange jello. Add by tasting to get the orange flavor you want. Its tasty and you can make it diet friendly by using diet pop and fat free or lowfat cool whip. Hope you like it!

Wow...so don't add anything but the crush? That's amazing...I wonder what the science behind it is that it still bakes etc ?! :o:D Does it matter the size/ounces of cake mix? I've had some that were for different size, ie. one 8" pan or two 8" pans. Thanks--I'm so curious to taste it! :D

Here's where I get alot of my recipes, they are all made from cake mixes. I just need to alter them to make it gluten free. Open Original Shared Link

I have always made it (before gluten free days) with duncan hines cake mix which makes two 8 inch cakes but I would just make it into a 13x9 pan. If your going to do it with one 8 inch cake mix I would just add a half can of pop. Im hoping the gluten free cake mixes wont make a difference because its one of my favorites. Im not sure how it cooks so good just that its really moist.

      Alcohol

      By Suze046 · Posted

      Hey! I’m recently gluten free and yes I really struggle with alcohol now. I haven’t really drank in 2 months as it just made me feel awful the next day in terms of stomach ache mainly. I’ve had a couple of glasses of white wine here and there (mainly low sulphate) but every time it gives me a gut ache. I think it’s because but guy is so damaged from my journey to discovering my gluten intolerance and hopefully this will improve but honestly I’m just not bothered about having a drink now. I can’t even touch Prosecco or champagne I think the bubbles really upset me!

      I just wanted to share my support for you. Rant away. We all know that, and have experiences like that at some point. I am sorry for that very unpleasant, and emotionally isolating reminder of your medical condition. Which always is exacerbated by the hunger. I will admit many of my family friends, and coworkers found it easier to exclude me than to accommodate me. I also have to be very strict with cross contamination so in hindsight they did me a favor.  The sting however can often still be unearthed when I read experiences like yours.  I am sorry you had that occur. I hope you, and the coworkers can find the easy more accommodating experiences again after this unfortunate incident. Best wishes.

      Diagnosed gluten allergy but not Celiac

      By Awol cast iron stomach · Posted

      "...hemorrhoids, constipation and diarrhea" . Heard of indeed. Experienced too. In hindsight, I can remember from age 2 having, and trying to convey my issues. I went 38 years misdiagnosed. So yes one can have these issues. I did have to go back on gluten for a gluten challenge. I failed that challenge and 6 days in they give me permission to stop, and I proceed with my scopes as scheduled. Post those 6 days I had gained 13 intolerances. I had to remove many foods, and reintroduce them back in. Nine years later I have two that remain gluten, and corn. I found it helpful to follow a whole foods diet. I also found autoimmune (AIP) protocol diet/recipes, and Paleo diet/recipes helpful. I still enjoy many of those homemade version recipes. I still continue to make my own salad dressings even if I can find a gluten-free store bought version. Fresh taste best to this palate now.  I did give up many grains I was off many and reverted to coconut flour and almond flour as work arounds .  I still remember the first time my gut experienced the reintroduction of quinoa. It wasn't sure if it wanted to flare or not. In 30 minutes it reported back ok this will pass. Many foods were removed post gluten challenge for me for 2 years and 4 months. At the 2 year 4 month mark is when my body said ok let's eat again, but don't ever feed me gluten again! I wish you the best.

      if you have already learned that Gluten is the cause of your symptoms, of course there is no need to add it back into your diet— your decision could save you a lot of needless suffering. One thing to consider is that if you do have celiac disease, your first- degree relatives may also need to get screened for it, because, like diabetes the disease is genetic, although many of its triggers seem to be environmental factors. You may want to consider getting a genetic test for celiac disease, so you can at least warn your relatives if it turns out that you do carry a celiac gene.
