gluten-free Cake That You Can Buy & Have Shipped


Guest cassidy

I'm having a baby shower next month and the hosts are looking to buy me a gluten-free cake. I was so happy with this because I was going to make my own cake and bring it to have while everyone else had gluten filled cake. They are looking for a bakery that can make the cake. They said they would let me check everything out before they ordered it so I would feel comfortable. This is so nice of them, I don't care if I get any presents.

So, has anyone ordered a cake? I am very sensitive and don't usually eat things that are produced on the same lines as gluten, so I would really prefer a totally gluten-free bakery?

If we can't find something affordable, are there any good box cake mixes? I haven't baked at all because I'm afraid that my baking pans and things have gluten left in the crevices and I don't want to go out and buy new stuff. Can you line pans with wax paper when you are baking?

Wildwood Cafe in Austin is a gluten free bakery that looks like it will ship cakes. Their carrot cake is delicious. I think even people who eat gluten will like it. I'm not sure about the other ones but everything I've had there has been good.

And for your question about baking with waxed paper, yes it can be done.

I believe Grainless Baker can be shipped too.

Terra Cotta has the most awesome carrot cake, but I think you can only order it in Canada. They are based in Alberta.

      If possible find quinoa with a gluten-free label--when grown in Peru or Ecuador it is far less likely to have wheat contamination. Canada increasingly is producing more quinoa, and when grown there it the likelihood of wheat contamination is higher.

      Welcome to the forum, @Grahamsnaturalworld What exactly do you include in your diet?  Do you keep a food journal to track symptoms? Have you tried an elimination diet like the Autoimmune Protocol Diet?  It's very strict, but I found it excellent for reducing inflammation, calming the immune system, and promoting healing in the gastrointestinal tract.   The AIP diet was developed by a doctor who is a Celiac herself, Dr. Sarah Ballantyne, who wrote The Paleo Approach.   Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  Sometimes vitamin deficiencies can manifest as gastrointestinal problems.  Which symptoms do you have currently that make you think your refractory?  How long have you been on a gluten free diet?  When were you diagnosed?

      I think @trents may be correct here, and you've caught celiac disease in its early stages. A gluten-free diet might be the safest approach.

      Welcome to the forum, @Garlic! This kind of question is always a gray area and the answer must be nuanced. Ideally, every celiac should stay away from any potential source of gluten, however small. But we don't live in an ideal world and sometimes it is appropriate to take risks as long as the risks aren't too large and the consequences not too drastic. Realize these companies work hard at covering their butts against possible litigation so they often err on the side of abundant caution to guard against this. And Costco is a very conscientious organization as well. In reality, cross contamination from shared equipment is usually not a significant threat except to those celiacs on the ultra sensitive end of the spectrum. Do you fit that category? Note, we are talking about cross contamination from using shared equipment, not other sources of CC such as happens in cultivation, transportation and storage. I mention that because some types of products are typically heavily cross contaminated in these other ways. A prime example is dried legumes.

      I recently noticed a “warning” on the back of Kirkland Quinoa packages sold in my area. It says in part: “Allergen Information: Processed on equipment that also packages products that may contain. . . wheat, . . . .” I have been buying my quinoa at Costco for years and I believe it used to have gluten free on the label. I don’t know when this warning first appeared. I’m concerned that I might be getting gluten through this source. Any thoughts, experiences? Do you think a thorough rinsing of the quinoa before cooking would help? Thank you in advance for any advice.
