Really Yummy Frosting Recipes

I've been baking gluten free cupcakes and I really want a homemade from scratch frosting recipe. The problem is I tried the kind that asks for shortening, vanilla, confectioner's sugar, etc. It just has a fake taste to me. I really have been trying not to eat dairy so it kind of limits what I can put in it (ie: butter). Does anyone know of a frosting recipe that is both tasty and dairy-free and also not premade or from a mix?

I will look around this weekend and see if I can find something. I have an allergy cookbook that has various recipes and how to alter them.

Have you experimented with coconut oil or milk yet? If you are doing chocolate you can make a fake 'ganache' with gluten free choc. chips and some sort of liquid... I always just suck it up and do confectioner's sugar :lol: . (shortening makes me gag) so I like to use maple syrup or honey depending on what I am eating. I did a rum-maple glaze once for a pumpkin spice cake and it was yum! I use honey on applesauce cakes and that is really delicious.

I wonder what would happen if you tried whipping coconut milk with eggwhites. Adding some natural flavors and sweetener to that.

How about White Mountain Frosting or Seven Minute Frosting? I'd make it with cream of tartar and substitute vanilla beans for the extract.

recipezaar#300324 has a recipe for vegan chocolate frosting. You might be able to get creative and make different flavors with it like vanilla or peanut butter.

I used to make a frosting with 1 cup milk, 1 sm. box instant (any flavor)pudding and 8oz. coolwhip... but I don't know if that will suit your needs. Whisk milk & pudding, fold in topping. Store in fridge.

I am reading a bunch of good recipes from Open Original Shared Link

She has some frosted cake recipes that sound good. Maybe you can make them dairy free.

Have fun experimenting!!! :P

      Does anyone here also have Afib

      By cristiana · Posted

      Interesting, when I suffered for a few months with ectopics I noticed that carbohydrates would cause indigestion and bloating in my stomach, then that would lead to my heart skipping beats, and I could feel it in my throat, it was very unsettling.  My last serious bout of this was after eating a Muller Rice Pudding for breakfast.   I happened to be wearing a 48 hour halter at the time and cardiology picked it up, but they weren't worried about what they saw. There was some British doctor who'd made some videos on the Vagus nerve that I remember watching at the time which made sense of what I was experiencing, there did seem to be some sort of connection.

      I asked my cardiologist about stopping vitamins.  He said his tests account for all detectable vitamins from sources other than food.  I only need to stop them for a couple of days.  He has me keep records of meds and vitamins I've ingested over the past 10 days and prior and he does his calculations.

      Do some people with Celiacs develop hypoglycemia?

      By jessysgems · Posted

      Reply to treats I try and eat to bring up the glucose. Sometime I get up 3 times a night and eat something. I don't think food is the issue. A lot of the food they say should help doesn't.  Many mornings my level is 59 and I feel sick, sometimes for hours. It has been recommended I go to an Endocrinologist.
