Need An Allergen Free Birthday Cake Recipe

I wanted to add that last night I let Annika have a few dairy/gluten free chocolate chips and no reaction thus far. I will give her a few more today and see what happens. I'm thinking that I may just make her sweet potato with brown sugar and color it with cocoa so that it looks like chocolate cake for pictures. Then I'll just whip up some frosting with homemade powdered sugar I guess. Then I can be sure that she doesn't have a reaction on her birthday. I will, however, be trying some of these recipes down the road. They look so delicious!

I have a cousin with egg, nut, and dairy allergies, and for her birthday, we always did a sorbet cake. I think we got it premade, but I'm sure you could make your own if you softened sorbet in a cake pan, froze it, and decorated it!

I wanted to add that Annika is two days into a soy challenge and doing GREAT. No reaction thus far. Before her reaction to soy was immediate, so it looks promising at this point. :) This means that I will likely be able to make her a REAL cake with soy flour (if I can find it).

I DID IT!!! I managed to make cupcakes that are gluten/casein/soy/corn/rice/egg/nut/apple FREE!!! They're moist and delicious and I can hardly believe it! I had to make my own powdered sugar for the icing which didn't get as finely ground as I would've liked, but it was still very good. I can't wait for Annika to try them. Now I'm just praying she doesn't react to sorghum or tapioca. She's never had either before that I know of.

That cupcake looks delicious!! I'll keep my fingers crossed that Annika doesn't react to the soy, sorghum or tapioca. :)

20 hours after eating one and NO reaction whatsoever thus far. I am hopeful. This seems relatively promising. When she first started eating she was reacting to every new food we gave her, so this is truly wonderful news for us.

It looks like perhaps we're in the clear! No reaction! Happy day! I'm so excited.

      My journey is it gluten or fiber?

      Is there a digestive enzyme that helps build a healthier gut? I see people taking them but not sure what really works

      hi, i want to say thank you to you and @trents . after 2 phone calls to my GI, her office called me back to tell me that a blood test was “unnecessary” and that we should “follow the gold standard” and since my biopsy did not indicate celiac, to follow the no dairy and sucraid diet. i luckily have expendable income and made an appt for the labcorp blood t...

      Thoughts? Non-endoscopic Celiac diagnosis in two year old

      Okay that is really good to know. So with that being positive and the other being high it makes sense she diagnosed her even without the endoscopy. So glad we caught it early. She had so many symptoms though that to me it was clear something was wrong. yeah I think we had better test us and the other kids as well.

      So the tTG-IGA at 28 is positive for celiac disease. There are some other medical conditions that can cause elevated tTG-IGA but this is unlikely. There are some people for whom the dairy protein casein can cause this but by far the most likely cause is celiac disease. Especially when your small bowel lining is "scalloped". Your Serum IGA 01 (aka, "total IGA") at 245 mg/dl is within normal range, indicating you are not IGA deficient. But I also think it would be wise to take your doctor's advice about the sucraid diet and avoiding dairy . . . at least until you experience healing and your gut has had a chance to heal, which can take around two years. After that, you can experiment with adding dairy back in and monitor symptoms. By the way, if you want the protein afforded by dairy but need to avoid casein, you can do so with whey protein powder. Whey is the other major protein in dairy.
