I called our local Baskin Robins about thier ice cream cakes, and they have a cake base BUT they wold gladly make me a gluten-free one as long as I gave them at least 24 hours notice. Apreantly it has to "freeze over night".

Since we do not have carvel down here, this is next best thing. :)

Wow, what will they make it out of and do you have to worry about cross contaminaton?

Kati, you used to work at TCBY, right? Are these cakes safe?

Looks like there's hope for my birthday yet....

Ice Cream of course, and you always have to worry about cross contimaination. All you can do is educate and hope. :)

With softserve there really is no issue of cross contamination..nothing touches where that comes out...

With ice cream there is a possibility of contamination with scoops...always ask them to wash it

With shivers..the machine may have contamination issues because it mixes up ice creams with toppings such as oreos.

Well the ice cream cakes have wheat in them BUT if you let them know in advance they will make you an all ice cream one that is gluten free.

Talk to the manager though or someone at a higher position then a regular employee because they don't know anything...they will look at you with a blank look on their face.

The manager should take care of this with no problem.

Make sure you say when working on your cake they must not touch any other food while preparing it unless they wash their hands or change gloves before coming back to it. Specify that this is a major health issue and can make you sick with the slightest bit.

The place I worked at catered to these people with no problem...as long as you make them aware of the issue the manager will handle it(at least the manager at the place I worked with did..and was great)

I know that McFlurry's at Mcds are definitely gluten-free because they dont use an universal mixer, they attach a new mixer (the spoon attaches to the mixer) for each mcflurry.

Do you know if the Cadbury Creme Egg McFlurry is gluten-free? I'm in Canada and this item isn't on the website, I guess because it's a seasonal item or it's just not served in every McDonald's... or something.

We have gotten 1/2 dozen or so cakes from our Baskin Robins with out any problems... sadly there is none near by us now (we moved), so we miss them big time. :(

We did have to order 48-72 hours in advance so they could make it. But that was fine. It was worth the wait :D

This is good news, we have a Baskin Robins around here. I will have to give them a call. I miss ice cream cakes.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By trents · Posted

      NCGS does not cause damage to the small bowel villi so, if indeed you were not skimping on gluten when you had the antibody blood testing done, it is likely you have celiac disease.

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I will assume you did the gluten challenge properly and were eating a lot of gluten daily for 6-8 weeks before your test, but if not, that could be the issue. You can still have celiac disease with negative blood test results, although it's not as common:  Clinical and genetic profile of patients with seronegative coeliac disease: the natural history and response to gluten-free diet: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5606118/  Seronegative Celiac Disease - A Challenging Case: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9441776/  Enteropathies with villous atrophy but negative coeliac serology in adults: current issues: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34764141/  Approximately 10x more people have non-celiac gluten sensitivity than have celiac disease, but there isn’t yet a test for NCGS. If your symptoms go away on a gluten-free diet it would likely signal NCGS.

      Taking Probiotics but Still Getting Sick After Gluten – Advice?

      By Xravith · Posted

      I'm very confused... My blood test came out negative, I checked all antibodies. I suppose my Total IgA levels are normal (132 mg/dl), so the test should be reliable. Still, I'm not relieved as I can't tolerate even a single biscuit. I need to talk to my doctor about whether a duodenal biopsy is necessary. But it is really possible to have intestinal damage despite having a seronegative results? I have really strong symptoms, and I don't want to keep skipping university lectures or being bedridden at home.

      They may want to also eliminate other possible causes for your symptoms/issues and are doing additional tests.  Here is info about blood tests for celiac disease--if positive an endoscopy where biopsies of your intestinal villi are taken to confirm is the typical follow up.

      New labs are now very elevated

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      In the Europe the new protocol for making a celiac disease diagnosis in children is if their tTg-IgA (tissue transglutaminase IgA) levels are 10 times or above the positive level for celiac disease--and you are above that level. According to the latest research, if the blood test results are at certain high levels that range between 5-10 times the reference range for a positive celiac disease diagnosis, it may not be necessary to confirm the results using an endoscopy/biopsy: Blood Test Alone Can Diagnose Celiac Disease in Most Children and Adults TGA-IgA at or Above Five Times Normal Limit in Kids Indicates Celiac Disease in Nearly All Cases No More Biopsies to Diagnose Celiac Disease in Children! May I ask why you've had so many past tTg-IgA tests done, and many of them seem to have been done 3 times during short time intervals?
