What's your favorite gluten-free cake mix?

Have you ever tried the mix with a egg replacement?

Thanks!!!

My favorite brand is Dietary Specialties ~ found on Open Original Shared Link

They make a WONDERFUL chocolate, and I love their white as well. They also make apple bread, blueberry muffins and banana bread mixes that are out of this world!!! YUMMY!!! Enjoy! :)

P.S. I don't know about the egg issue... check their label/ingredients. :)

If you like angel food cake, Gluten-Free Pantry makes an awesome mix. You just add water and vanilla. My husband can't tell the difference!

I don't usually cook, but when I actually make a cake I use the gluten-free Pantry chocolate truffle brownie mix. I put one cup of cherry yogurt in along with the ingredients called for. The hint of cherry taste is really nice. You can use any fruit yogurt you prefer. I like the brownie mix as a cake because it's more dense than the cake mixes. Plus the cake mixes tend to have that 'sandy' taste to them whereas the brownie mix is chewier and holds its shape better for frosting. An inch of chocolate frosting on top and no one knows it's a brownie mix, anyway.

Hi,

I just got my gluten-free pantry catalog and I never imagined that they had so many products. With the price of the products it's nice to know what works and what is yummy! We're having our first gluten-free birthday party and I was a little nervous but I feel much better knowing that I can make a great cake.

My mom picked up a Pamela's brownie mix that had a recipe on the back for a cake using the mix. I think the website also has recipes to use with her mixes.

The yogurt idea is brillant! My mother-in-law loves angel food cake, this will be great for her birthday.

As far as frosting goes....is this an area for concern? For birthdays I used to use the old powdered sugar and vege' shortening but it's not very healthy! :P I'm still new to cooking gluten-free and I've got so much to learn. I've called a grocery store several times to find out ingredients. The last time I called about cheese and got a well "DUH" response. :rolleyes: I'm finding that I'm supporting the companies that help to make the gluten-free lifestyle easier!! :)

Thanks again!! :)

      Other symptoms that Celiac Disease can cause but resemble other diseases so the cause may be misdiagnosed. What Are the Symptoms of Celiac Disease?

      Thanks Scott. They are gluten-free but cross contaminated.

      Hernia symptoms after gluten exposure

      By cristiana · Posted

      Hi there @MCAyr I have a small umbilical hernia which came about during my second pregnancy.   I can just about see it, and feel it, when I stand or sit, but it is far less noticeable when I lie down.  I always know when I am putting on weight because I can get pain and burning near the site, funnily enough not on the hernia itself but either side!  I would imagine bloating could cause the same effect as weight gain. In my case I don't think it is my bowel protruding but a bit of fat  - sorry,  I realise this isn't painting a very pretty picture.  But in truth it is scarcely noticeable.  It has never really got bigger in size. I was rather hoping that it could be operated on but here in the UK they don't seem to operate on every hernia anymore.  My GP isn't remotely worried about it. In a way, I should be thankful - it is like an early warning system that I need to go on a diet! Cristiana

      The hernia description would likely be unrelated to celiac disease, but you'd need to get it checked out by your doctor to be sure it's a hernia.
