Icing

Recommended Posts

KarenFe Contributor

I have seen several gluten-free cakes online and they don't have icing on them. Is icing ok for someone on a gluten-free diet to have? I sure hope so!

I'm looking for a good vanilla gluten-free cake as well as a chocolate one. Does anyone have any favorites?

Thanks so much!

Karen

My favorite vanilla frosting is: one stick of butter, 8 oz. of cream cheese, a bag of confectioner's sugar, a couple of teaspoons of gluten-free vanilla and milk to make it the consistency you want it. To make chocolate frosting, add real cocoa to it to make it as strong or light as you want it. I love to make cupcakes and have one of those cupcake trees, which make such a fun birthday time or for any occasion. Have fun.

I like to make Bob's Red Mill Chocolate Cake from the mix and make my own chocolate butter cream frosting from the recipe on the back of the Ghiradelli cocoa power (baking cocoa) can. But I only use 1 cup of sugar because that's really all it needs. The best part is, there's no rice in any part of this cake (I'm rice intolerant, too, lucky me.)

Our favorite--Cause Your Special Moist Lemon Cake Mix with homemade buttercream frosting. I use the frosting recipe on the side of the Domino's Confectioner's Sugar Box.

I'm lazy so I buy icing - I've had success with the canned Great Value brand from Walmart. However - some brands DO have wheat starch in them, so read those labels !

Here is my favorite homemade choc. cake and its super easy:

I like to add 3/4 cups of choc. chips or part peanut butter chips. I have made it with rice flour mix or sorghum flour mix or some of both and its great everytime. I doubled it and made a 2 layer cake with the directions for Rissaroos black forrest cake (recipes below).

Here is a really yummy frosting. It makes more than enough for a 2 layer cake so you may want to make 1/2 a recipe:

I remembered an old favorite I used to make:

Fluffy Pudding Frosting

1 cup cold milk

1 sm. pkg instant pudding mix (gluten-free)

1 8oz. cool whip

Pour milk into bowl, add pudding mix. Whisk until blended, 2 mins.

Stir in cool whip, gently, with rubber scraper until all one color. Frost, keep cake/cupcakes in fridge. Frosts 24 cupcakes. (I had extra fluff to eat with a spoon...mm.

      Antibodies my number is in 500's. COVID hit and I was  layed off from my job so no insurance (was in Arizona) so couldn't complete all the other testing they wanted to do. Back home and contacted Minnesota Mayo and they take my new insurance so considering going back in spring.

      pdm1981 asks what I was also thinking. That is, refractory celiac disease.
    • pdm1981
      I've been to the Mayo Clinic. Outstanding place. Did they test to see if you might have refractory celiac disease? This may explain why the symptoms persist but what numbers are off the charts? Are they antibodies, liver enzymes?

      Hi Dawn,   Back in the Fall of 2019 with Covid looming I considered getting a pneumonia vaccine.  I went as far as getting in line and reading the pamphlet and saw the warning about not getting it if you ever had a reaction to diphtheria.  I instantly recalled a tetanus booster shot in 1971 that caused a severe reaction.  Tetanus booster shots include diphtheria.  I haven't had a tetanus shot since, but recent lab results show that I have many timed the immunity required.  Good Luck.

      Since we don't know what you reacting to when you get vaccinated, we can't say whether or not the pneumonia vaccine will cause a reaction. Is there some common ingredient in these vaccines that is causing a reaction. I mean, with many vaccines the antigen is delivered via a solution containing albumin (chicken egg protein). Some people are allergic to chicken egg protein so they can't take those vaccines. That kind of thing. When you say your "numbers are off the chart", what numbers do you refer to? Are you referring to celiac disease antibodies?
