Gluten Free Wedding Cake

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

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By sleuth · Posted

      Of course my son is on a 100% gluten free diet.  I wish his symptoms were not debilitating as there are right now.  He cannot work, even when a miniscule of cross contamination occurs.  It's not just GI distress, but intense fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety, insomnia, etc.  It's literally neurological inflammation.  Not to be taken lightly here.  We have sought out many other possible ways to cope during this window of time (8 months!!!!)  without success.   AN-PEP does not help and seems like studies on this are not well researched.  So, we are trying this out because research shows some promising results.  And, all participants showed no cravings afterwards, no signs of addiction.  The patch is different than the oral route such as smoking, vaping, gum, pouch, etc.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Have you tried AN-PEP enzymes, for example, GlutenX (who is a sponsor here)? A lot of research has shown that it can break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, before it reaches the intestines. It might be a better approach than risking nicotine addiction, and the questionable research around this. I also hope that he’s trying to be 100% Gluten-Free.

      Nausea

      By Me,Sue · Posted

      Hi all  I was diagnosed Coeliac a few years ago and follow a gluten free diet. The list of foods that I can eat without a problem grows shorter on a weekly basis. [I also have diabetes and asthma also].  BUT the reason I am posting this is because I seem to struggle with nausea quite a lot, which is really quite debilitating, and I was wondering if others suffer from nausea, even if following a gluten free diet.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By sleuth · Posted

      @fatjacksonthecat I have been doing some digging about the topic of nicotine and celiac.  I came across many studies that showed that the nicotine patch helped many with long covid and chronic fatigue syndrome.  I have a son who was diagnosed with celiac and his symptoms are severe when he is glutened.  He shows a lot of neurological inflammation and suffered with fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety and insomnia. There have been studies revealing that nicotine smoke actually masking celiac symptoms.  I also read that microdosing with a nictoine patch prevents one from addiction.  We are currently trying this out and so far it has lifted the brain fog and helped with anxiety and mood.  One of the studies I have read showed that it's not so much the dose, but the length of time a person is on the patch that showed improvements.  Many showed significant improvement as early as week 3 and continued through week 12.  We are taking 3 day breaks in between to make sure we don't down regulate the nicotine receptors.   How have things been for you?  Are you still chewing nicotine gum?  Perhaps, try the patch?  And how long did it take to ease up on your symptoms when glutened?

      Hi @KathyR37 and a very warm welcome here.  I am so very sorry that you are going through all of this. I just wanted to check, have you ever been tested for any other gastrointestinal conditions? Cristiana
