My 2 year old has Celiac. In our local supermarket there is a beautiful cinderella cake that she of course can't have for her birthday. i live in Albany, NY and I was wondering if anyone knew of somewhere semi-close where there is a bakery that can do this gluten-free. I know its a ljg shot but I figured I'd ask.

I don't know where you could buy a cake like that, but I bet you could make one. I made my daughter one of those Barbie doll cakes one year. You could buy that dome cake pan and bake the cake in there. Then when it's done and cooled, you could buy a cinderella doll (barbie size) and stick her down in it. Then frost it the dome like her dress and make sure to extend the frosting up on her for her bodice. What do you think?

Doll cake pans ---- I believe that Wilton makes these pans and Wilton has a website or you can buy them from a store which sells Wilton goods.....Wilton also sells the top half of the doll that goes with it...

Or you can use a Bundt brand ring cake pan. Somehow you use a lot of stiff icing to fill in the gaps around the doll's waist.

I made this for my little girl last year, and believe me....if I can do this, anyone can!!!! I bought the Cinderella pan from Michaels, it's made by Wilton. I bought a cake decorating book also by Wilton, which listed the specific food colors and tips to use. If you happen to go this route, give yourself plenty of time to decorate. And make sure you grease the pan extremely well, if any of the cake bits stick to the pan, it's harder to follow the lines when it comes to filling in with frosting.

It really wasn't that difficult, until I got to the face. That was the hardest for me, as you can probably see! But my little girl nearly flipped when she saw the cake, and she didn't seem to mind the flaws, lol. I'm going to give it a shot again this year, since our local gluten-free bakery doesn't do cutesy kids cakes.

Here's the link...

I don't know of any bakeries in Albany but there are a few gluten free bakeries nearby. In Brunswick (outside of Troy) there is Sherry Lynn's bakery, there is the Alternative Baker in Kingston (Open Original Shared Link) and there is Soul Dog in Poughkeepsie. Soul Dog is a gluten free hot dog place but has excellent baked goods and does catering and cakes. Good luck!

      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.
