Gluten Free Wedding Cake


jen71

Recommended Posts

I'm planning my wedding in Oahu and am looking for a bakery that makes Gluten free cakes (it is my wedding day and I'd like to be able to enjoy at least a little). I thought I would have just the top made Gluten free at least.

Anyone have any ideas for bakeries over there? Haven't been able to locate one yet.

Thanks,

Jen

if you cannot find a bakery you might be able to make a cake and find folks to decorate it -- or another deal you could make is offering them mixes they could use and the basics of cross-contamination -- most bakeries would be willing to make your cake in a safe manner -- but you may have to pay them more or just sell them well -- you know, expanding clientele, etc.

Might I also suggest cupcakes. You could get regular cupcakes for all your guests (should be cheaper than doing all gluten free) and then a few gluten free ones for you for that day and the next. That's what I plan on doing at my wedding in April. Good Luck!

It might depend on where your having the wedding. The first thing would be to talk to the pastry chef if its at hotel.

Many of them are aware of celiac and what we can and cant do. It also depends on how high end you want to go.

I would write to Wanda Adams the food editor of the honolulu advertiser. I'm sure she would help you find someone. She did a story on a few of us Hawaiian celiacs including one chef working for a food service equipment company who may be able to help.

Now, If you change to the Big Island, My son was a pastry chef and now a chef at Mauna Kea Hotel. He makes wedding cakes on the side and has made a few gluten free cakes. So has Christope, the pastry chef at the Four Seasons here.

I know of what used to be a great bakery on Oahu -- used to be, because they had no idea what I was talkling about when I asked about gluten-free items.

Hope this helps

      Welcome to the forum, @Bebee, Yes, Celiac Disease has genetic commonalities with MS, hypothyroidism, arthritis, Reynaud, and rosacea.   Usually a gluten challenge is done before endoscopy with biopsies taken,  however I would not recommend a gluten challenge before endoscopy with biopsies for you since you have been gluten free for so long and have so many concurrent autoimmune diseases.   You can still have the endoscopy with biopsy samples taken now.  After several months with dietary changes, you can have another to compare results and check that intestinal health has improved.   You can get a genetic test for Celiac disease which shares genetics with other autoimmune diseases that you have.  Eating gluten is unnecessary for genetic tests. For the rosacea, get checked for SIBO (Small Intestinal Bacterial Overgrowth) that could be causing gastrointestinal symptoms as well as causing skin issues.  Our skin is a reflection of our gastrointestinal health.     Following the Autoimmune Protocol Diet has been helpful in keeping my own rosecea, eczema, and dermatitis herpetiformis and other autoimmune diseases in check.   Be sure to be checked for nutritional deficiencies that occur easily in gluten free and dairy free diets. Keep us posted on your progress! References: Clustering of autoimmune diseases in patients with rosacea https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26830864/ And...

      I am new here, I have been diagnosed with Microscopic Colitis (Lymphatic) years ago and have been gluten-free, DF since, but I still can have occasional bouts of diarrhea (still trying to figure that out).  I also have MS, Hypothyroid, Arthritis, Reynaud's and my rosacea has been acting up lately.  What treatment is suggested to help with rosacea?  I would like to know too if there is a test for celiac if you have been gluten-free?   Thank you, Barb

      Well, that's interesting. I am lactose intolerant and have been managing that for years. I'd be interested in seeing if that changes once I feel better from not eating gluten (one thing at a time for now, though). Helpful to hear about the avenin. I will do some digging and pose that to the dietitian. Grateful for your feedback.
