Before going gluten-free I was a snack cake addict! It is almost my birthday and I'm hoping to make a Hostess Cupcake knockoff. What do you think, is this doable? Suggestions?

Make cupcakes, bake, then using a pastry bag, while they are not, push through with a cream filled mix. Using a combination of a bit of butter/dairy-free margarine, icing sugar, a bit of extract and milk or dairy-free milk to thin it out is perfect.

I don't know what a cupcake like that you are talking about tastes like... Never had that sort of thing, but these are for delicious, cream filled cupcakes.

I use a paring knife and make a hole in the top of the cupcake and dig out some of the cake. Then I fill with whipped cream using a pastry bag. Then I frost them and store them in the refrigerator. There's a recipe and instructions for doing this at glutenfreeda.com. They are a lot of work but very tasty. :D I send these with my son to daycare and even the gluten eaters love them.

I think it's doable. I'm not sure if you want the (delicious) chocalate icing on top. I would have no idea how to do that. But I just made Gluten Free Pantry's vanilla cake mix and it was SO good.

I don't know that I would add the filling when the cupcakes are hot...perhaps out of the oven awhile and still warm. And then add your filling (you wouldn't want the filling to melt and run back out the hole).

Good luck to you and let us know how it turns out. HAPPY BIRTHDAY! :P

If you want a slightly easier way than stuffing a dozen or so cupcakes, i often make a tube pan cake, cut off the top 1/4, scoop out a trough, fill with filling and put the top back on. THen you can frost the top. It looks like a giant donut and tastes great!

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      Some people prefer eating gluten before bed, then sleeping through the worst symptoms at night.  You might want to try that and see if that makes any difference.   Several slices of toast for breakfast sounds okay.  Just try to work up to the Ten grams of gluten.  Cookies might only have a half of a gram of gluten.  The weight of the whole cookie is not the same as the amount of gluten in it.  So do try to eat bread things with big bubbles, like cinnamon rolls.   Yeah, I'm familiar with the "death warmed over" feeling.  I hope you get the genetic test results quickly.  I despise how we have to make ourselves sick to get a diagnosis.  Hang in there, sweetie, the tribe is supporting you.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By Xravith · Posted

      @knitty kitty  Thank you very much for the advice. I did the exam this morning, my doctor actually suggested me to take something called "Celiac duo test" in which I first do the genetic test and if it's positive, then I'll have to do the antigen blood test. I have to attend 1 month until my results are ready, so I have some weeks to increase the amount of gluten I eat daily. It will be hard because my health is not the best right now, but I also did a blood test to cheek my nutritional deficiencies. The results will arrive on Tuesday, so I can ask my doctor what should I do to control my symptoms and blood levels during this month. For now I'm resting and paying attention to what I eat— at least I don’t look like a vampire who just woke up, like I did yesterday. I'm still scared because is the first time I've felt this sick, but this is the right moment to turn things around for the better.  I realized that if I eat gluten at lunch I cannot finish the day properly, I become severely tired and sometimes my stomach hurts a lot - let's not talk about the bloating that starts later. Do you think is it ok to eat gluten just in the morning, like some cookies and slices of bread for breakfast?

      Help I’m cross contaminating myself,

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      I suffer from Dermatitis Herpetiformis, too.  Like @Rogol72, I had to cut out all gluten-free processed foods, dairy, oats, and eggs before my skin cleared up.  I followed the Autoimmune Protocol Diet. I also supplement with the eight essential B vitamins.  (Meat and liver are great sources of B vitamins.)  Low levels of certain B vitamins ( B12, Thiamine, Pyridoxine, and Niacin) can affect the nerves, resulting in itching and tingling.  Niacin especially helps with the itching and healing the blisters.  Tallow Balm helps with the healing, too.  Zinc and Vitamin A also help with skin health.   I've gotten such good results with Niacin and the other vitamins mentioned that I've never had to go on Dapsone.

      I think Tierra Farms is a gluten free facility, at least that is what it says on the bag of walnuts that I have.
