1st Birthday Cake Help!

So my baby girl is turning one in January, but I am on the search now for a gluten free yellow cake recipe. I am starting early because I have found that it takes some trials and errors sometimes with gluten free baking. Anyway, I have seen recipes online, but I do not want to use potato starch, mayonaise, cornstarch, or rice flour (some of the ingredients I saw). I would prefer to use sorghum, arrowroot, coconut, or a mixture of like for the flour. I would appreciate any help.

Thanks,

Newbie

You could try the allrecipes Gluten Free Yellow Cake and use the flours in combo the way you want.

I would use maybe sour cream instead of mayo? Also, you could use yogurt - just choose a full fat one.

I have found this recipe to be EXTREMELY forgiving. I've even used splenda instead of most of the sugar (used like 3 tsp for rising)...I've subbed sour cream, yogurt, used soy milk, etc. and it's always turned out really yummy.

The only thing I have not tried is an egg substitute. But have been told it works fine.

I hope this helps.

(I'd use a flour mix of sorghum, coconut and arrowroot to replace all the flours in the recipe).

      Forgive me if this has already been discussed. I couldn’t find another discussion about it. I was diagnosed with osteoporosis a couple of years ago after having been asymptomatic for celiac for decades. I ignored the celiac diagnosis because I had no issues, but I was ignorant to the long term damage. I am still asymptomatic, but after years of eating gluten I am now strictly gluten free. The osteoporosis has been improving after taking Fosamax the last couple of years. My question is…..has my body returned to normal bone production on its own now that it is not influenced by gluten? A new problem has surfaced. I have to stop taking Fosamax due to a vascular issue which requires me to take a daily aspirin. The aspirin mixed with Fosamax will increase the chance of internal bleeding and ulcers so I need to turn to Reclast, which I’m trying to avoid. I’m turning to you all to see if anyone knows if there is a chance that my body is back to normal bone production since it is not exposed to gluten. I’m going to ask my doctor if I can stop the Fosamax and take the aspirin until my bone scan next year. Any help is greatly appreciated!

      I was replying to Charlie1946's most recent post where she asked the question if Omeprazole was the right thing to take.

      This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):

      So sorry for going off topic. I have had gerd for about 25 years. I used to take 40 mg in the morning and 40 at night . My current GP has me down to 20 mg twice a day.  I don’t have any issues on this dosage. Hope this helps. Best of luck to you!
