Gluten-free Wedding Cake In South Florida


LuckotheeIrish1

Recommended Posts

LuckotheeIrish1 Rookie

Well my fiance and I are planning to get married August 2008. We live in Miami, but hope to get married in probably Broward County or Palm Beach County. Our wedding will be gluten free. The only thing that will not be, is the cake for the guests. I'll just get a sheet cake made up and serve the guests that. The display cake will be for my husband and I. So I need this cake to be gluten free. I don't mind a faux layer or two to reduce costs, but I don't want to risk any cross contamination with a partial gluten-free and partial regular cake. So here's the problem. 1, I need to find a baker down here who has some experience making gluten free cakes. 2, make sure their facility will be sterile and clean to reduce risk of cc. 3, I want it to taste good!!!! My mom makes wicked awesome gluten-free cakes, but they are a far cry from wedding cakes. Does anyone out there know of any bakeries in the tri-county area (South Florida) that can accomodate gluten-free???

Hi luckotheeirish1,

If your Mom makes wicked awesome gluten-free cakes maybe, she could bake this recipe I posted

on the Irish Coeliac Society Site.

.

It would just be a matter of covering it with marzipan (almond paste)

and covering that with ready to roll gluten-free white icing.

.

Brand names in brackets can be ignored, the are required by the Irish Coeliac Society

to show ingredients are vetted and 100% free of any possible Cross - Contamination.

.

Here's the Link.

Hope this is of some help or at least it's an option.

.

Best Regards,

David

      In general with pharmaceutical products cross-contamination is a much lower risk.

      Here is more info about how to do a gluten challenge for a celiac disease blood panel, or for an endoscopy: and this recent study recommends 4-6 slices of wheat bread per day:

      Just so you'll know, once you have been gluten-free for any length of time, it will invalidate testing for celiac disease.

      Yes. I have not been tested for celiac. It took forever to get diagnosed with Fibromyalgia. lol. I have an appointment with my regular GP later this month and will convey my findings on improved symptoms and see what his thoughts are. Thank you.

      @Grahamsnaturalworld, It's never too late.   Have you been checked for Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth?  SIBO can cause ongoing symptoms.  Mast Cell Activation Syndrome (MCAS) and Histamine Intolerance (HIT) can also be the cause of ongoing symptoms.  The AIP diet can help with these by starving out SIBO bacteria and calming the immune system. Do you include dairy in your diet?  Casein in dairy can cause an autoimmune response the same as to gluten.  Have you been checked for lactose intolerance?  Some people lose the ability to produce the enzyme, lactase, needed to digest lactose, the sugar in dairy because the villi where the lactase enzyme is made are damaged.  AIP diet excludes dairy. Do you include grains in your diet?  Gluten free alternative grains and ancient grains can be inflammatory and cause symptoms.  Some people with Celiac react to corn and oats.  The AIP diet excludes all grains.  Lectins in grains can be inflammatory and cause symptoms. Do you eat nightshades (tomatoes, potatoes, peppers, and eggplant).  This family of plants produce glycoalkaloids, chemicals that promote Leaky Gut Syndrome.  The AIP diet excludes nightshades.   Are you on any medications?  Some medications can cause gastrointestinal symptoms.  Do you take any supplements?  Some herbal teas and supplements can cause digestive symptoms.  Medications for diabetes, antidepressants, and other pharmaceuticals can cause digestive symptoms as side effects. Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  Malabsorption of essential nutrients can occur with continued symptoms.  Deficiencies in Niacin, Thiamine, and other B vitamins can cause digestive symptoms.  Gastrointestinal Beriberi and Pellagra are often overlooked by doctors because they are not familiar with nutritional deficiency disease symptoms.  Nutritional deficiencies can worsen over time as stores inside the body are depleted.   Have your doctors checked for all these?   I had a horrible time getting my symptoms under control.  I had to answer all these questions myself.  Yes, it's frustrating and exasperating because doctors don't have to live with these symptoms everyday.
