I Made Gluten/casein/dairy Free Chocolate Cupcakes!

I had a major craving for chocolate cupcakes this weekend, so I decided to break down and make my own.

I didn't have any Xanthan or Guar gum or any "egg replacer," and didn't want to buy such an expensive product on my meager budget.

So, I used flavor less gelatin instead, as the egg replacer. It worked so well!

I even made the frosting.

I took a picture and wrote about it on my blog. (which you can find the address to in my profile.)

mmmmmm......so good! :)

Congratulations!! One small victory at a time.

Just out of curiosity, can something be dairy free and not casein free? Or casein free and not dairy free? We can tolerate milk products in my family but I have a friend who is lactose intolerant (also gluten-free) and a nephew casein intolerant, I just wonder the difference. Thanks!

Not sure about a product being casein free but not dairy free...however, I am positive that something can be dairy free but still contain casein. In the Coffeemate creamers for instance, they claim that they are gluten and lactose free but they include "sodium caseinate". I missed that the first time and was having some problems until I switched coffee creamers. Be aware that products will not always claim whether they are casein-free or not!

      Celiac disease is the most likely cause, but here are articles about the other possible causes:

      Increased intraepithelial lymphocytes after 10 yrs gluten-free

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hi @Atl222 As @trents points out, there could be many reasons for this biopsy result.  I am interested to know, is your gastroenterologist concerned?  Also, are your blood tests showing steady improvement over the years? I remember when I had my last biopsy, several years after diagnosis, mine came back with with raised lymphocytes but no villous damage, too! In my own case, my consultant wasn't remotely concerned - in fact, he said I might still get this result even if all I ever did was eat nothing but rice and water.   My coeliac blood tests were still steadily improving, albeit slowly, which was reassuring.

      Welcome to the celiac.com community, @Atl222! Yes, your increased lymphocytes could be in response to oats or it could possibly be cross contamination from gluten that is getting into your diet from some unexpected source but not enough to damage the villi. And I'm certain that increased lymphocytes can be caused by other things besides celiac disease or gluten/oats exposure. See attachment. But you might try eliminating oats to start with and possibly dairy for a few months and then seek another endoscopy/biopsy to see if there was a reduction in lymphocyte counts.

      Brown Rice Vinegar (organic) from Eden Foods is likely gluten free

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a solid, well-reasoned approach. You’re right that “koji” by itself doesn’t indicate gluten status, and the risk really does come down to which grain is used to culture it. The fact that you directly contacted Eden Foods and received a clear statement that their koji is made from rice only, with no wheat or barley, is meaningful due diligence—especially since Eden has a long-standing reputation for transparency. While the lack of gluten labeling can understandably give pause, manufacturer confirmation like this is often what people rely on for traditionally fermented products. As always, trusting your body after trying it is reasonable, but based on the information you gathered, your conclusion makes sense.
