Edy's has introduced five new light ice cream flavors in partnership with American Idol - customers can vote for the one they like the best and the winner becomes a permanent flavor. Despite the name, the Take the Cake flavor is gluten free - it's yellow cake-flavored light ice cream with frosting swirl and multi-colored sprinkles. The Triple Talent and Choc N'Roll Caramel flavors also are gluten-free.

Here's the link for Take the Cake:

I love the search index (go to www.icecream.com/flavorfinder and go to the flavor finder at bottom left and search by ingredient (gluten free is an option!).

Thanks so much for posting this! I would not have even looked at the ingredient list since "cake" is in the name of the flavor,

Be aware, though, that some of the light ice creams are not gluten-free--here are the ingredients for

Edy's light French Silk

INGREDIENTS: milk, skim milk, sugar, cream, corn syrup, chocolaty chips (sugar, coconut oil, cocoa processed with alkali, partially hydrogenated coconut oil, cocoa, salt, soy lecithin, natural flavor), whey protein, cocoa processed with alkali, egg yolks, tapioca maltodextrin, soy protein, cellulose gum, natural flavor (derived from wheat), mono and diglycerides, carrageenan, guar gum, glycerin, salt, dextrose, vitamin A palmitate

At least, they didn't hide it.

I went out looking for this today. Ugh... I can't find it anywhere, even where they say they should have it. I'm hoping they get it on the shelves soon. I've never had cake flavored ice cream and it sounds really good to me right now. I did get the peanut butter cup one and it is excellent.

I couldn't find this ice cream either and John really wants it too. He made me drive to 5 Giant stores looking for it.

He he he... The things we'll do for our men, huh? Did you try using the flavor finder on the website? They had a section where you could put in your zip code and see where a specific flavor was located.

Thanks Savvvyseller for the tip. I would NEVER have checked any of the Edy's ice creams and certainly would not have thought that I would've liked a cake tasting one. I purchased Take The Cake and Choco 'N Roll Caramel and they are AWESOME! I can't decide which one I like the best. I DID have a reaction many hours later but I'm fairly sure that it was something else but still I have a call into Edy's just to doublecheck. Can't tell WHAT is bothering me these days. I found this ice cream at a Meijer's in St. Charles, Il (near Chicago) but did not find it at my local Jewel. :rolleyes:

angelbender Newbie

I just went to the edyslowchurned.com website and voted for Take the Cake! It's at 32% and the next closest is the cheesecake one which is NOT gluten free. Sooooooo.........if you like Take the Cake, please go and vote! The top voted for flavour they will make into a permanent flavour. For once our vote may actually count! Angel :D

      I agree, it so often overlooked! I live in the UK and I have often wondered why doctors are so reluctant to at least exclude it - my thoughts are perhaps the particular tests are expensive for the NHS, so therefore saved for people with 'obvious' symptoms.  I was diagnosed in 2013 and was told immediately that my parents, sibling and children should be checked.  My parents' GP to this day has not put forward my father for testing, and my mother was never tested in her lifetime, despite the fact that they both have some interesting symptoms/family history that reflect they might have coeliac disease (Dad - extreme bloating, and his Mum clearly had autoimmune issues, albeit undiagnosed as such; Mum - osteoporosis, anxiety).  I am now my father' legal guardian and suspecting my parents may have forgotten to ask their GP for a test (which is entirely possible!) I put it to his last GP that he ought to be tested.  He looked at Dad's blood results and purely because he was not anemic said he wasn't a coeliac.  Hopefully as the awareness of Coeliac Disease spreads among the general public, people will be able to advocate for themselves.  It is hard because in the UK the NHS is very stretched, but the fallout from not being diagnosed in a timely fashion will only cost the NHS more money. Interestingly, a complete aside, I met someone recently whose son was diagnosed (I think she said he was 8).  At a recent birthday party with 8 guests, 4 boys out of the 8 had received diagnosis of Coeliac Disease, which is an astounding statistic  As far as I know, though, they had all had obvious gastric symptoms leading to their NHS diagnosis.  In my own case I had  acute onset anxiety, hypnopompic hallucinations (vivid hallucinations upon waking),  odd liver function, anxiety, headaches, ulcers and low iron but it wasn't until the gastric symptoms hit me that a GP thought to do coeliac testing, and my numbers were through the roof.  As @trents says, by the grace of God I was diagnosed, and the diet has pretty much dealt with most of those symptoms.  I have much to be grateful for.

      @xxnonamexx, There's labeling on those Trubar gluten free high fiber protein bars that say: "Manufactured in a facility that also processes peanuts, milk, soy, fish, WHEAT, sesame, and other tree nuts." You may want to avoid products made in shared facilities.   If you are trying to add more fiber to your diet to ease constipation, considering eating more leafy green vegetables and cruciferous vegetables.  Not only are these high in fiber, they also are good sources of magnesium.  Many newly diagnosed are low in magnesium and B vitamins and suffer with constipation.  Thiamine Vitamin B1 and magnesium work together.  Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine has been shown to improve intestinal health.  Thiamine and magnesium are important to gastrointestinal health and function.

      Welcome to celiac.com @sha1091a! Your experience is a very common one. Celiac disease is one the most underdiagnosed and misdiagnosed medical conditions out there. The reasons are numerous. One key one is that its symptoms mimic so many other diseases. Another is ignorance on the part of the medical community with regard to the range of symptoms that celiac disease can produce. Clinicians often are only looking for classic GI symptoms and are unaware of the many other subsystems in the body that can be damaged before classic GI symptoms manifest, if ever they do. Many celiacs are of the "silent" variety and have few if any GI symptoms while all along, damage is being done to their bodies. In my case, the original symptoms were elevated liver enzymes which I endured for 13 years before I was diagnosed with celiac disease. By the grace of God my liver was not destroyed. It is common for the onset of the disease to happen 10 years before you ever get a diagnosis. Thankfully, that is slowly changing as there has developed more awareness on the part of both the medical community and the public in the past 20 years or so. Blessings!

      @EndlessSummer, You said you had an allergy to trees.  People with Birch Allergy can react to green beans (in the legume family) and other vegetables, as well as some fruits.  Look into Oral Allergy Syndrome which can occur at a higher rate in Celiac Disease.   Switching to a low histamine diet for a while can give your body time to rid itself of the extra histamine the body makes with Celiac disease and histamine consumed in the diet.   Vitamin C and the eight B vitamins are needed to help the body clear histamine.   Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?

      I found out the age of 68 that I am a celiac. When I was 16, I had my gallbladder removed when I was 24 I was put on a medication because I was told I had fibromyalgia.   going to Doctor’s over many years, not one of them thought to check me out for celiac disease. I am aware that it only started being tested by bloodwork I believe in the late 90s, but still I’m kind of confused why my gallbladder my joint pain flatulent that I complained of constantly was totally ignored. Is it not something that is taught to our medical system? It wasn’t a Doctor Who asked for the test to be done. I asked for it because of something I had read and my test came back positive. My number was quite high.Are there other people out here that had this kind of problems and they were ignored?
