Gluten Free Cupcakes

Carolina Cupcakery - Dessert Cafe, in Chesapeake, Virginia is my new find (and friend)

I recently has some personal experience with them, when they donated their products and their time to feed thousands of people for an Extreme Makeover: Home Edition project in our area.

Not only did they supply many of us with gluten free cupcakes daily as well as those sugar free, they volunteers hours upon hours to serve meals.

I can say, that I've never enjoyed a cupcake more. :D

That's great! People are so generous :)

There was a homemaker over, 1 to 2 yrs ago, about an hour from us. The 4 kids had to be fed thru tubes in their tummys. They had a white blood cell disease.

I'll be stopping there on my way to Nags Head in May!!!!!!!!! Not sure if I'm more excited about the beach or cupcakes?!

That's a tough call, BUT, consider eating the cupcake WHILE sitting on the beach. How's that thought??? I love it.

Thanks for posting Lisa, I think we're on our way to Suffolk soon, so I'm going to have to mosey out to the cupcakery. YUM!

I went yesterday! The cupcake was scrumptious and they were super friendly. I also picked up some gluten-free sourdough cheese rolls, which are also quite yummy. I do believe I'll be stopping on my way back to Va. :wub:

      @Alibu, Migraines ran in my family as well.  Correcting my Thiamine insufficiency made a dramatic improvement in frequency and duration.   If you take Thiamine, B12 and B6 together, they have analgesic (pain relieving) properties.  Taking thiamine every day has cut down on their occurrence and severity for me.   Take Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine or TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide).  These forms get into the brain easily.  Magnesium Threonate gets into the brain easily, too, and helps thiamine work.  My gave a sigh of relief when I first took it, and no migraines. Yes, lowering histamine levels helps one feel better, too.  Vitamin C and B12 help reduce histamine.  A low histamine diet can help, too.  DAO supplements lower histamine, as well.  DOA is a digestive enzyme we can run short on.

      @ehb   Great you're going to start the AIP diet!  I know it's scary and stressful, but you'll soon start feeling better.  It's a challenge, but you can make it.  Do ask for a Erythrocyte Transketolace test which tests for Thiamine level.   I hope your Vitamin D level is between 70 and 100 nmol/L.  In this optimal range, Vitamin D can act like a hormone and regulate the immune system.  Vitamin D 3 is the form that the body can utilize well.  I was prescribed the synthetic firm D2 and my body didn't like it.  I know getting my Vitamin D up in the eighties made a world of difference to me.  My depression improved and I felt so much better at higher levels.   I prefer Life Extension brand for many vitamins.  The important thing is to read the label and watch out for fillers like rice flour.  This may help. Keep us posted on your progress!

      @knitty kitty I have an appointment to go over the results tomorrow. Vitamin D was in the normal range. I’ve decided to start the gluten contamination elimination diet, while avoiding nightshades as recommended by the AIP. I am still hoping to get support from a nutritionist or advice from the doctor about supplements to make sure I’m getting enough nutrients. I’m still having a hard time sorting through all of the different brands and possible combinations

      We've definitely all had such thoughts.  But as Scott says, it does get easier with time.  I'm not sure where you are posting from but in England where I live, over the last ten years or so most things I missed at first now have gluten free substitutes.   I still miss Twix bars, and chocolate Penguins (a type of biscuit) but I'm hoping sooner or later someone will create a decent substitute for them! One thing that I remember my husband said to me when I was feeling down one day  was: "Why don't you try to think of all the things you can still eat, rather than the things you can't?"  The list is long, and it did help - sort of!

      It looks like they are naturally gluten-free, but not labeled gluten-free. https://www.quakeroats.com/products/hot-cereals/grits/instant-grits-plain
