I haven't tried this in a recipe, but it might work. I left half a carton of Sharon's Coconut Sorbet out of the freezer for a couple of hours. I opened the carton, expecting soup. But it looked like it was still frozen. It was cold and about the consistency of whipped cream. I tasted a little - it had a definite coconut taste, but reminded me of whipped cream. I told myself that the next time I've having a treat that needs whipped cream I'm going to leave out some sorbet on purpose and try it.

I have seen soy whipped cream at the grocery store before.

You can put a couple cans of coconut milk in the fridge (make sure it's regular, not light coconut milk). The next day open them up and drain the liquid off the top. Use mixers to mix the creamy part with some sugar and vanilla. It's really good. :D

Mangoo......thank you, thank you, thank you! What a great idea to use coconut milk. I am lactose intolerant, allergic to milk, soy and casein and this sounds like the best substitute. I have tried some recipes using Vance's and Better Than Milk and they were not good at all. My solution at the time was to make meringue and that was the closest I could come.

I've been using a lot of coconut oil (the expensive kind) and it is worth every penney. I hope additional food allergy tests don't come up positive for coconut allergy....that's all I need!

I hope you like it. I forgot to say that I use powdered sugar. Also, a coconut milk with a bit of guar gum in it seems to work well (if you tolerate guar gum). It's best to experiment lots until you get the texture and flavor that you like (I never measure anything).

I made it for dairy eaters last Thanksgiving and Christmas and they loved it. It's awesome on fruit (such as frozen blueberries etc.) :)

My year long search for an acceptable (dairy,soy free)whipped cream topping has just ended, thanks to Mango04!!

I finally was able to try this, the consistency and taste were more than I had hoped for. After beating, it looked a bit "soft set", and I added a small amount of cornstarch. Put it in the frig, and an hour later, could not tell the difference between "my" whipped cream and hubby's cool whip. It thickened up beautifully. Oh, so good on warm chocolate pudding!! I have to admit I forgot to add the guar gum...tomorrow will use guar gum and eliminate the corn starch.

This weekend I also was able to purchase some Luna and Larrys Coconut Bliss non-dairy frozen dessert, and Turtle Mountain Purely Decadent Vanila dessert made with coconut milk......I feel like I have won the lottery! Finally, I CAN EAT.

Try RichWhip Frozen non-dairy topping. It's casein-free, but does contain soy. Check rich-seapack.com

Also Kineret non-dairy whipped topping

      Hi @KathyR37 and a very warm welcome here. I am so very sorry that you are going through all of this. I just wanted to check, have you ever been tested for any other gastrointestinal conditions? Cristiana

      @KathyR37, I would suspect that in addition to gluten intolerance, you have other food intolerances/sensitivities. This is very common in the celiac community. The most common offenders are oats, dairy, soy, corn and eggs with dairy and oats being the big two. Have you considered this? Have you tried keeping a food diary to detect patterns?

      thank you for your advice. I have always taken them and I use Stonehedge because they are in a glass bottle, but don't have to be refrigerated. I also like they are 3rd party tested and state gluten free. But you never know if something better has come alone over the years.

      Thank you for your response. I have already learned about the info you sent but i appreciate your effort. I am the only one in my family cursed by this disease. I have to cook for them too. I make sure that my utensils are free of gluten and clean after using them for other food. I use non-porous pots and pans and gloves when cooking for them. One huge problem...

I make sure that my utensils are free of gluten and clean after using them for other food. I use non-porous pots and pans and  gloves when cooking for them. One huge problem I have is a gag reflex out of this world and if something doesn't taste good it is not going down. Most commercially made breads and such taste like old cardboard.Pastas are about the same. I did find one flour that I like and use it regularly, but it is so expensive! All gluten free food is way more expensive. I only eat twice a day because I cannot afford to buy all that. We live on a very low income so my food purchases are quite limited.

      What you've described—the severe weight loss, the cycle of medications making things worse, and the profound fear of eating before leaving the house—is a heavy burden to carry for 15 years. It is absolutely not your fault. While everyone's journey with celiac is different, the struggles with the learning curve, social isolation, and dietary grief are feelings many in the community know all too well. Your question about whether you should just eat what you want and manage the symptoms is a heartbreaking one, born from years of frustration. It's crucial to know that the diarrhea is a sign of ongoing damage to your small intestine from gluten, and simply managing the symptom with Imodium doesn't stop that internal harm or the risk of other complications. The fact that you are still getting sick within an hour of eating, even while trying to be gluten-free, is a huge red flag that something isn't right. This could be due to cross-contamination in your kitchen (e.g., using a shared toaster, colander, or condiment jars), hidden gluten in foods, or the possibility of another concurrent condition like refractory celiac disease. Don't give up!  This article has some detailed information on how to be 100% gluten-free, so it may be helpful (be sure to also read the comments section.):
