Cinderella Cake

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!

      Oh, okay. The lower case "b" in boots in your first post didn't lead me in the direction of a proper name. I thought maybe it was a specialty apothecary for people with pedal diseases or something.

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! There are other things that may cause elevated tTg-IgA levels, but in general a reaction to gluten is the culprit:

      Hi @trents Just seen this - Boot's is a chain of pharmacies in the UK, originally founded in the 19th Century by a chap with the surname, Boot.  It's a household name here in the UK and if you say you are going to Boot's everyone knows you are off to the pharmacist! Cristiana

      I am looking to find a Celiac Dietician who is affiliated with the Celiac Disease Foundation who I can set up an appointment with.  Can you possibly give some guidance on this?  Thank you!

      Nacina, Knitty Kitty has given you good advice. But I would say/add find a Fat Soluble B-1 like Benfotiamine for best results.  The kind found in most Multivitamins have a very low absorption rate. This article shows how taking a Fat Soluble B-1 can effectively help absorption by 6x to7x times. https://www.naturalmedicinejournal.com/journal/thiamine-deficiency-and-diabetic-polyneuropathy quoting from the article.... "The group ingesting benfotiamine had maximum plasma thiamine levels that were 6.7 times higher than the group ingesting thiamine mononitrate.32" Also, frequency is much more important than amount when it comes to B-Vitamin. These are best taken with meals because they provide the fat for better absorption. You will know your B-Vitamin is working properly when your urine becomes bright yellow all the time. This may take two or three months to achieve this.......maybe even longer depending on how low he/you are. The Yellow color is from excess Riboflavin bypassing the Kidneys....... Don't stop them until when 2x a day with meals they start producing a bright yellow urine with in 2 or 3 hours after the ingesting the B-Complex...... You will be able to see the color of your urine change as the hours go by and bounce back up after you take them in the evening. When this happens quickly......you are now bypassing all the Riboflavin that is in the supplement. The body won't absorb more than it needs! This can be taken as a "proxy" for your other B-Vitamin levels (if taken a B-Complex) ...... at least at a quick and dirty level......this will only be so for the B-1 Thiamine levels if you are taking the Fat Soluble forms with the Magnesium as Knitty Kitty mentioned. Magnesium is a Co-Factor is a Co-factor for both Thiamine and Vitamin D and your sons levels won't improve unless he also takes Magnesium with his Thiamine and B-Complex. You will notice his energy levels really pick up.  His sleeping will improve and his muscle cramps will get better from the Magnesium! Here is nice blog post that can help you Thiamine and it's many benefits. I hope this is helpful but it is not medical advice God speed on your son's continued journey I used to be him. There is hope! 2 Tim 2:7 “Consider what I say; and the Lord give thee understanding in all things” this included. Posterboy by the grace of God,
