Pamela's Vanilla Cake Mix

Has anyone tried Pamela's Vanilla Cake Mix or Arrowhead Mills Vanilla Cake Mix? I want to make an easy gluten-free cake for my 3 year old's birthday next week, and we tried Namaste Vanilla Cake mix and it wasn't very good. I was just wondering about the other two brands, or if anyone has a suggestion about a different brand that tastes similar to the real thing that would be great! Thanks!

Hi Laura,

I've not tried Pamelas since I can't tolerate tapioca, and I'm not a fan of Arrowhead Mills baking mix, so I've never tried the cake mixes.

My favorite gluten-free cake mix by far is Cause You're Special. The Lemon and Yellow flavors are delicious and the testure is light--more like a wheat-based cake mix.

Gluten Free Pantry makes a white cake mix that's good, too.

Pamela's is excellent! Not expensive & everyone eats it . I usually make my own but when I'm in a hurry Pamela's is the one I use. I not a big fan of Nasmaste.. or Arrowhead mills.....most people do not even know that they are eating a gluten-free cake with Pamela's.

Avoid AT ALL COSTS the Arrowhead mills cake. It is the grittiest, grossest thing I have ever eaten. Like chowing down on a pile of vanilla sand. Gack.

Pamela's vanilla cake is great. I have one in the oven as we speak for my son's birthday today. The smell, taste and texture are great, it's not that expensive, and it's easy to find.

My Favorite that I have tried is called Namaste Foods ... I literally could not stop eating it. I mean this was better then gluten cake. Trust me I have eaten a lot of cake in my life time gluten and non gluten. Not only is it the best tasting I have found it is super easy to make. The only change I made to it was adding about half a cup more sugar to the batter. It was fantastic. I bought it at whole foods.

Pamela's is definitely the one I've used to feed non-gluten-free people. Its my favorite, as the flavor is much the same. The texture is much denser, but that's really the only difference. The chocolate cake mix is just to die for as well.

My son loves Pamela's vanilla cake. In fact, I am making one on Wednesday to bring to a family gathering. It's yummy!

I love Pamela's Chocolate Cake Mix. I'm not so fond of the Vanilla Cake Mix. I do, make the pound cake recipe that's on the bag. I add Health Bar Chips and Coconut and it's wonderful with no calories ;):P ,

I like Pamela's chocolate cake mix, but not the vanilla. I have been told that Authentic Food's makes a good vanilla cake mix, but I've not tried it yet. I think vanilla cake must be one of the more difficult things to master... ;)

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      You might try Heallix. It's a silver solution with fulvic acid. I just put the solution on with a cotton ball. It seemed to stop the nerve pain. Again, not in your eyes or ears.

      GI DX celiac despite neg serology and no biopsy

      Shingles - Could It Be Related to Gluten/ Celiac

      Thanks, I’m still dealing with the pain and tingling and itching and feeling like bugs or something crawling around on my face and scalp. It’s been a miserable experience. I saw my eye doc last week, the eye itself was okay, so they didn’t do anything. I did take a 7 day course of an antiviral. I’m hoping for a turnaround soon! My life is full of stress ...

      I don't think any apps are up to date, which is exactly why this happened to you. Most of the data in such apps is years old, and it doesn't get updated in real time.

My life is full of stress but I have been on / off the gluten free diet for the last year , after being talked into going back on gluten to have a biopsy, that looked okay. But I do have positive antibody levels that have been responsive  to a gluten free diet. I can’t help but wonder if the last year has caused all this.

Ultimately there is no substitution for learning to read labels. The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.
