I would like to try to make these this year. Has anyone got any experience with this? Or suggestions for a gingerbread recipe that would hold up to making houses?

TIA!

Josef's makes a graham cracker that might work. They're small, so you'd probably have to ice 4 together for one wall, but it would probably work. Or perhaps a small village of tiny houses instead? Might be easier. LOL Sounds like fun...

Gluten Free Pantry has a mix, and Pamelas has a recipe on their web site using one of their mixes.

There are two bakeries selling premade house kits this year, www.thesensetivebaker.com and www.cakeartsupplies.com. Neither has them up on their web sites, but they are available via phone order.

Just to let you know, we did the Pamela's recipe for gingerbread cookies (not the houses.....yet) and made the cookies a little thinner than recommended. The cookie cutters we used were also pretty big, and the cookies were strong. You could easily build with them. They even have "blueprints" for the houses and recommended icing. I think, too, you could use the icing recommended for "gluten" gingerbread houses since normally icing is safe.

I just got my house kits from cakeartsupplies in the mail and I am super happy. They came individually wrapped with the ingredients listed on the outside (they used the Pamela's mix as a base) and assembly instructions. They smell divine even through the shrink wrap. I'm going to make them this weekend, I am super excited.

How much did these kits cost? Does it seem a better deal than attempting to do them yourself with Pamela's mix?

They were $13.50 each, plus shipping. It probably costs a bit more, but as far as time is concerned right now, its worth every penny to me. My favorite part is the building not the baking anyway.

Turns out they are completely sold out already. I guess they didn't count on the huge response. Hopefully they will do it again next year though.

      A question - eggs & dairy

      By trents · Posted

      Lactase is the enzyme that breaks down lactose. Lactase is produced in the small intestine. It is not produced in the pancreas. https://cymbiotika.com/blogs/health-hub/understanding-what-organ-produces-most-digestive-enzymes   "Lactase is found in the brush border of the small intestine of humans and other mammals." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lactase Studies have shown through micro analysis that the small bowel lining from those with celiac disease may never completely heal, even after years of gluten free living. There is healing at the macro level but not all cellular functions may be restored.

      Diagnosed gluten allergy but not Celiac

      By Waterdance · Posted

      Thank you so much for this thorough and informative post. This information does help me to understand my body better. I will commit to a strict gluten free diet. I may not have a diagnosis but I know gluten is causing issues. The worst offender, white bread, causes a reaction within 20-30 minutes. Which I hate because I like sandwiches. Lol. Common sense dictates that it's time to stick to a strict gluten free diet. Thanks for the tips about alternatives. I do cook and bake so it's helpful to know what may work. I appreciate so much all the time and effort you all have put into helping me understand and being supportive. Thank you.

      I went back to consuming dairy after a year of healed villi.  What I didn't know is that along with developing celiac, my pancreas was no longer producing enough enzyme to consume lactose.  My GI said he often sees this with celiac patients.  Some people can go back to dairy with no problems at all and others will develop odd symptoms like ataxia--balance issues, etc.-- for no apparent reason.  It took me a year of suffering to get it all straightened out.  Hope this saves you some time!

      Blood results

      Do you know what the lab's standard range is for the IgA tTG2 result? The Endomysial IgA basically tests for the same antibodies as IgA tTG2 but it uses an older, less sensitive method and the result is positive/negative rather than quantitative. Hence, it is possible to show raised IgA tTG2 antibodies without getting a positive test for Endomysial IgA antibodies.

      She’s eating mostly gluten as far as I know. Think her GP is trying to get her seen fairly quickly
