Gf Cake From Baskin Robins!

[VydorScope]

A while ago I posted that Baskin Robins told me they would make me a gluten-free cake if I gave them 24 hours notice. Welp I called thier bluff this weekend, hey it WAS Father's day, and I ordered a one it was great! Cant wait till I get home tonight for leftovers (ordered a 1/3rd of a sheet for just me LOL )

NOT Cheap though.

EDIT I should note here they did not know what gluten-free was, but they were very good aboutlistening to me, and they even took notes. At one point they even called me and check the indgredents of thier iceing to make sure it was okay!!

That's really nice...[that they would listen to you and be so careful]. And Happy Father's Day to you and the other dads here, however few there are.

That sounds good is it just ice cream or cake too!

My dh got me a clown cone from them once and he brought a gluten-free cone to them and explained that I couldn't have wheat. Well, they put a cookie on the bottom I didn't realize it until I took a bite.

That's great they were listening. Did they know of ways they could contaminate it while making it though? If they didn't know about gluten I would be very skeptical because where they prepare these cakes there is alot of ways it can be contaminated. If you do order it talk to a manager and then request a manager makes it...I know I worked at TCBY and the manager was very accomodating to special needs of people but the employees were a bit careless. TCBY will also do these cakes if you talk to them in advance(at least the one near us does)

Icecream only. Thier normal stuff is part cake part icecream, so they had to make it up specail. They alsed lots of questions, and were very good about it. I ugess I cant speak for any other location, but at least this one realy cared to take the time... I will be back.

Can we eat the icing? Is it gluten-free? Did you have them put any toppings on it? What exactly was the cake that you got? My b-day is tomorrow and the TCBY near us is closing so my Mom wanted to know where else to get a cake. This is great news, but i need to know more details please!!!

They read the list of ingredents on the Iceing and it was fine, but they were not sure about the "confetti" that they use... so I told them leave it off. It was just pure icecream+icing+decorations. I kept it simple for safty. Just call and talk to them, they need at least a full days notice becuase it takes that long for the icrecream to "set".

And I would double check the iceing at the one local to you since its a franchise, there could be some regional differences

Great, thanks so much for your help!!!

The owner of the TCBY I worked at would call whoever made where they got the icing from to verify if it was gluten free. If not, if you bring some in that you can have they will make it with that....not sure if other TCBY's do this but I know this one did
