Funfetti Cake? Cream Of Mushroom Soup?


AllysonBrightMeyer

Recommended Posts

Okay, so I've been gluten-free for 3 weeks, and I have been "diving in" to buying replacement foods, learning the recipes, etc. There are just 2 favorite foods that I'm craving, and I can't find anything on them.

They are very unrelated, lol! But does anyone know how I can make gluten-free cream of mushroom soup? And/or gluten-free Funfetti cake (that's the white cake with the sprinkles inside)?

Thanks in advance to anyone who has figured either of these out!

Hi,

I have 2 recipes for cream of mushroom soup, but none for the cake.

Cream of Mushroom Soup

1 cup dry milk powder (we use a non-dairy creamer)

1 cup white rice flour

2 Tbsp dehydrated minced onions (can be omitted)

Thanks, Amy! Those are so helpful.

Now I just need to find a way to make my favorite cake again, and I'll be ready to go (at least for now, lol.)

Health Valley makes a gluten free Cream of Mushroom and Cream of Chicken soup. They can be a little difficult to find for some people though.

Progresso makes a "Creamy Mushroom" soup that is gluten free. I thicken it a bit on the stove with a bit of gluten free flour.

hmmmmmmm.....I don't really know what Funfetti cake is (but I want some :rolleyes: ) but I know that Namaste makes some really great cake mixes, and those might work. the sprinkles.........I don't know but you can check ingredients on those. Would colored sugar work? the really large, course crystals - I h ave a fabulous multi-colored package in square cylinder I purchased at a gourmet grocery. I think those are mosly gluten-free.

We like the 'Cause You're Special yellow cake. I have found it in a health food store here but you can also order it online. It looks just like a regular white cake. I haven't tried this, but I would think you could use some sprinkles just mixed in. A lot of Wilton's cake decorating supplies are gluten-free but you have to call to verify.

I wouldn't try the Namaste vanilla cake with this because it makes a very dense, brown cake.

Almost all Wilton candy sprinkles are gluten-free. Also the same with the Cake-Mate brand found in most stores. We use a ton of sprinkles at my house and the only things that I have found to have gluten in them are the edible shapes "pictures" of Barbie, Scooby-doo, Looney Tunes, etc. that either go directly on the cake or have a tab that can stick into a cupcake. They all had wheat starch in them, the rest are fine.

So you could mix a gluten-free cake mix and then stir in the candy sprinkles right before you pour it into the baking pan. It works great.

I use both of these with great luck. I can find the Health Valley ones at the local health food store as well as Kroger and Publix. You might check there and if they don't have it, ask your grocery store to order it.

As for the funfetti cake...... I'm a cake mix girl myself. The BEST one I've found is Cause you're Special. I make cupcakes and freeze for later. I bet you could just make the cake and add in some sprinkles and bake as you normally would. I order these mixes from glutenfreegourmet.com or you can get it from gluten free mall. I think Amazon even carries them now!!!!!!

Good news--Progresso Cream of Mushroom soup is gluten free--I use it a lot and love it. Actually, many Progresso soups are gluten-free--but of course not the noodle or barley varieties, and not the tomato basil, but I've had the lentil and some of the vegetable ones, and they're good--I've had no problems. And these you can find in the regular grocery store, and stock up when they go on sale. As always, read labels. Health Valley also has a cream of mushroom and a cream of chicke that are good and gluten-free. B) Good luck.

Thanks everyone!

I think I am going to try the Cause You're Special yellow mix and add the sprinkles - sounds good to me.

On the soup, glad to hear the news on Progresso, and thanks to all for the recipes as well.

      Thought was finished with this but a friend just sent email saying she takes Tirosin liquid levothyroxine which has no fillers (mentioned by Pgetha above).  Friend's doc sends script to one of Tirosin's direct-mail pharmacies.  Looking that up, government insurance (Medicare/Medicaid) doesn't cover (as Pgetha wrote above).  But if use one of their direct-mail places three month supply is $57/month.  Researching that, happened to learn Yaral also makes a generic gluten-free levothyroxine.

      Lysine is helpful for "cold sores" (oral herpes).

      @Wheatwacked, Are you aware of the interaction of potassium iodide and losartan ?   https://www.drugs.com/drug-interactions/iodine-potassium-iodide-with-losartan-1368-0-1489-0.html#:~:text=Talk to your doctor before,to safely use both medications.

      As a life.long celiac, I understand this.  I simply ask that the medical profession stop disregarding the fact that it should remain a concern for some. It cost me a lot of medical discomforts.

      @dmallbee, about 8% of celiacs react to the oat protein avenin like they do to the wheat protein gluten. In addition, there are some cultivars of oats that apparently do actually contain gluten.
