My Daughters Birthday Party

We had a birthday party for our daughters last Saturday, they are 7 years old.

we invited 35 guests, only family, and no one has celiac, except for me, but I decided to prepare only glutenfree food, so I could also eat and enjoy.

it was dinner, which included few salds, muffins with cheese and olives, vegetables casserole and for dessert cakes.

everyone ate and enjoyed the food, no one asked me any question, except for my cousin that asked me if the muffins are glutenfree, she couldn't believe that :o .....

what I'm trying to say is that glutenfree food can be tasty like regular food, and even more.

my hubby likes to taste new things, and he tastes everything I make, on the other hand my daughters don't want to try, but they are kids.

I had celiac when I was a baby up to 8 years old, than I started to eat everything according to Dr. orders, I ate everything with gluten up to 29.6 years old, and since than I'm eating glutenfree food again (I'm having glutenfree diet for 9 months). :rolleyes:

Thanks for posting this! I'm so glad to hear it went well. I'm planning a gluten-free birthday for my soon to be 4 year old. I want her to be able to have EVERYTHING at her party (even though she and I are the only ones with Celiac)! :)

For the 1st birthday party post-diagnosis, I hadn't experimented much with cakes and such, so we had a "Hawaiian" theme and did ice cream sundaes. I took my 5yo dd to the store and let her pick out a cart-full ;) of gluten-free toppings and set up a small table so all the kids (ages 4-6) could make their own--it was a HUGE hit!!!

Hey there. I'm new so - just wondering. I want to be able to make birthday parties safe as well as socialy enjoyable. We have several other allergies to deal with as well - and are really struggling with social situations. Do you have other allergies to consider?

THanks!

I like the Pamela's Chocolate cake mix. It is fabulous. I'm not sure if it has other allergens in it or not but it is worth checking out!

Hey,

I don't have any other allergies, but if you want some other recipes, I'll be happy to give you. of course, it depends on your other allergies.

Goodluck...

      Guinness, can you drink it?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a very common question, and the most important thing to know is that no, Guinness is not considered safe for individuals with coeliac disease. While it's fascinating to hear anecdotes from other coeliacs who can drink it without immediate issues, this is a risky exception rather than the rule. The core issue is that Guinness is brewed from barley, which contains gluten, and the standard brewing process does not remove the gluten protein to a level safe for coeliacs (below 20ppm). For someone like you who experiences dermatitis herpetiformis, the reaction is particularly significant. DH is triggered by gluten ingestion, even without immediate gastrointestinal symptoms. So, while you may not feel an instant stomach upset, drinking a gluten-containing beer like Guinness could very well provoke a flare-up of your skin condition days later. It would be a gamble with a potentially uncomfortable and long-lasting consequence. Fortunately, there are excellent, certified gluten-free stouts available now that can provide a safe and satisfying alternative without the risk.

      Gluten Issues and Vitamin D

      By MogwaiStripe · Posted

      Interestingly, this thought occurred to me last night. I did find that there are studies investigating whether vitamin D deficiency can actually trigger celiac disease.  Source: National Institutes of Health https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC7231074/

      By Butch68 · Posted

      Before being diagnosed coeliac I used to love Guinness. Being made from barley it should be something a coeliac shouldn’t drink. But taking to another coeliac and they can drink it with no ill effects and have heard of others who can drink it too.  is this everyone’s experience?  Can I drink it?  I get dermatitis herpetiformis and don’t get instant reactions to gluten so can’t try it to see for myself.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By trents · Posted

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I will assume you did the gluten challenge properly and were eating a lot of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before your test, but if not, that could be the issue. You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not as common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.
