There is a boy coming to my son's birthday party tomorrow. He is Celiac but also has dairy, soy, rice, almond and strawberry allergies. He can eat most of the snack food we have but I would really like to have a treat for him when the other kids have cake.

Any ideas?

Thanks. Both great ideas but I don't have flax meal, dairy-free chocolate chips or soy-free peanut butter. :(

I was planning on the peanut butter cookies but then I called the mom to check on the peanuts and she reminded me that my brand of PB has soy.

I could do dairy free or soy free chocolate chip cookies but I can't manage both. This is hard.

She says it's okay but I like to feed kids and I know how hard it is for my boys at parties.

flourless chocolate cupcake? Open Original Shared Link

Note--she has a note that this will not work without eggs (vegan). However as long as he can have eggs I think this recipe would work with palm shortening or coconut oil in place of the butter. I have made several cakes (just not this specific recipe, sorry) using palm shortening afor the butter/margerine nd I cannot tell the difference once baked. If you can get that dairy free/soy free/gluten free Earth Balance spread that might be an option as well.

I have no idea if this recipe works since there are no reviews. It seems like the flour is misisng from it or something but if I'm reading it right maybe not.

How about meringues or individual pavlovas? Gives you license to be creative and fun to look at and eat.

Thanks everyone. With all the other party prep I am just going to have to make sure he has a safe plate of fruit, candies, chips and veggies and trust his Mom that he'll be happy with a Cashew Lara bar for dessert.

I know I'm late posting but just in case it comes up again. Cotton candy! You can buy it different stores in little tubs. The other kids might just want to eat cotton candy too. Pixie sticks. Would have to check the label on these ~Smarties? Necco wafers?

When you start having a lot of food limitations start thinking just sugar.

We have some pretty serious food colouring allergies in our home. My oldest son hallucinates and has suicidal thoughts if he eats something with food colouring. I'm not as bad but I definitely get twitchy and anxious. So things like cotton Candy, Smarties etc are off our list too. :(

Is watermelon in season where you live? You can carve some really cool things that aren't as difficult as they look, and are really fun!

This is a geat suggestion, I have had peppermint meringue cookies and they were fabulous. Don't have a recipe but google it.

You can make a meringue tower, like a cupcake tower.

Yes - plus you can add so many things to the batter such as toasted slivered almonds, coconut, chocolate chunks, etc. I think meringues and pavlovas are underrated for something so simple and delicious (not to mention incredibly cheap).

When my daughter was off all top 8, gluten, peas, and food dyes we learned how to make hard candy. It isn't that hard, just find molds or make them with aluminun foil.

Really the childrens food allergy network was very helpful and search through "non-food" for "tubies"(feeding tube kids).

I really like the watermelon idea and I just remembered popsicles and very basic frozen sorbet.

kind of late I guess. But one treat you can make fairly easy is microwave peanut brittle. You don't have to use peanuts in it at all. You can use dried fruit, sunflower seeds, coconut shreds, pumkpin seeds, toasted sesame seeds etc. Follow the recipe and experiment. There are lots of recipees on the web. Spread it on a sheet of wax paper to cool. You can also sprinkle carob powder or cocnut on top. Then cut it in squares with a big knife.

This is late but I figure you'd still like ideas for next time. What about macaroons? I have a recipe on our blog:

They're even better with orange curd on top, but we haven't posted that recipe yet. You'll have to stay tuned till my partner gets around to writing it up!

Thanks everyone.

I'm hoping to have this boy over to play with my son. I'd like to feed him well and eat myself so that means coming up with snacks without:

Gluten (both of us)

Rice (him)

Soy (him)

Dairy (him)

Almonds (him)

Food dyes (me and my kids)

Coconut (me)

Strawberries, Kiwi and Pineapple (him)

Can anyone think of milk and butter substitutes that are not dairy, rice soy or coconut? I can handle a little bit of coconut milk or oil but I prefer to avoid it because it makes my throat itch and my stomach hurt if I have very much, I can't handle it at all if it's raw. I made some great cinnamon buns today that would be a safe treat to share as long as I can replace 2 Tbsp of butter and 2/3 cup of milk.

I'll try some meringues too, that sounds great.

Wow! That's a lot of things to avoid. For the butter, how about Earth Balance...they have a soy-free version. I don't know what it's made of. And as a milk substitute, some people use Vance's Dari-Free (I have no idea what the ingredients are though). Might be worth checking it out.

For baking try Palm oil shortening. It's just like Crisco in texture and has pretty much no taste. I have used it for cakes and cookies with good results. And it's great for greasing pans too. I use extra LIGHT olive oil (NOT Extra virgin) for any baking calling for oil or even if it says melted butter you can usually use oil instead.

For spreading on toasts or sandwiches you can use mayo, avocado, jams or jelly, apple butter, pumpkin butter, sunflower butter, cashew butter, etc.

For a milk substitute you could try hemp milk--just make sure it is soy free and gluten free because they seem to put soy in a lot of milk subs.

I have also heard of hazelnut milk although I have not seen it anywhere.

Also, instead of straight coconut milk (the thick stuff from the can) have you tried the coconut milk "beverages" that come in half gallon cartons? It's not as "coconuty" flavor-wise and may not give you a stomach ache if just used in baking. You do have to read the label carefully to make sure it's soy free. I have seen coconut beverage by Silk and also by So Delicious. You might have different brands up there however. It's a good option for putting over cereal--if you can find any cereal he can have--maybe his mom can send some or you could do quinoa, gluten-free oats or buckwheat groats?

Is he only allergic/intolerant to cow's milk? Have you asked his mom if he can do goat or sheep's milk? When I was just lactose intolerant I could use goat's milk and goat's cheese without any trouble but once I became outright allergic to milk protein I started having reactions to goats milk too.

Another idea for anything that is savory instead of sweet you can just use broth instead of milk. Like for mashed potatoes, I use chicken broth. For some soups that call for a little milk I just use more broth instead and thicken it with potato flakes or corn starch.

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      @Jane02, I hear you about the kale and collard greens.  I don't do dairy and must eat green leafies, too, to get sufficient calcium.  I must be very careful because some calcium supplements are made from ground up crustacean shells.  When I was deficient in Vitamin D, I took high doses of Vitamin D to correct the deficiency quickly.  This is safe and nontoxic.  Vitamin D level should be above 70 nmol/L.  Lifeguards and indigenous Pacific Islanders typically have levels between 80-100 nmol/L.   Levels lower than this are based on amount needed to prevent disease like rickets and osteomalacia. We need more thiamine when we're physically ill, emotionally and mentally stressed, and if we exercise like an athlete or laborer.  We need more thiamine if we eat a diet high in simple carbohydrates.  For every 500 kcal of carbohydrates, we need 500-1000 mg more of thiamine to process the carbs into energy.  If there's insufficient thiamine the carbs get stored as fat.  Again, recommended levels set for thiamine are based on minimum amounts needed to prevent disease.  This is often not adequate for optimum health, nor sufficient for people with absorption problems such as Celiac disease.  Gluten free processed foods are not enriched with vitamins like their gluten containing counterparts.  Adding a B Complex and additional thiamine improves health for Celiacs.  Thiamine is safe and nontoxic even in high doses.  Thiamine helps the mitochondria in cells to function.  Thiamine interacts with each of the other B vitamins.  They are all water soluble and easily excreted if not needed. Interesting Reading: Clinical trial: B vitamins improve health in patients with coeliac disease living on a gluten-free diet https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19154566/ Safety and effectiveness of vitamin D mega-dose: A systematic review https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34857184/ High dose dietary vitamin D allocates surplus calories to muscle and growth instead of fat via modulation of myostatin and leptin signaling https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38766160/ Safety of High-Dose Vitamin D Supplementation: Secondary Analysis of a Randomized Controlled Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31746327/ Vitamins and Celiac Disease: Beyond Vitamin D https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11857425/ Investigating the therapeutic potential of tryptophan and vitamin A in modulating immune responses in celiac disease: an experimental study https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/40178602/ Investigating the Impact of Vitamin A and Amino Acids on Immune Responses in Celiac Disease Patients https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC10814138/

      Thank you so much @knitty kitty for this insightful information! I would have never considered fractionated coconut oil to be a potential source of GI upset. I will consider all the info you shared. Very interesting about the Thiamine deficiency.  I've tracked daily averages of my intake in a nutrition software. The only nutrient I can't consistently meet from my diet is vitamin D. Calcium is a hit and miss as I rely on vegetables, dark leafy greens as a major source, for my calcium intake. I'm able to meet it when I either eat or juice a bundle of kale or collard greens daily haha. My thiamine intake is roughly 120% of my needs, although I do recognize that I may not be absorbing all of these nutrients consistently with intermittent unintentional exposures to gluten.  My vitamin A intake is roughly 900% (~6400 mcg/d) of my needs as I eat a lot of sweet potato, although since it's plant-derived vitamin A (beta-carotene) apparently it's not likely to cause toxicity.  Thanks again!

      Hello, @Jane02,  I take Naturewise D 3.  It contains olive oil.   Some Vitamin D supplements, like D Drops, are made with fractionated coconut oil which can cause digestive upsets.  Fractionated coconut oil is not the same as coconut oil used for cooking.  Fractionated coconut oil has been treated for longer shelf life, so it won't go bad in the jar, and thus may be irritating to the digestive system. I avoid supplements made with soy because many people with Celiac Disease also react to soy.  Mixed tocopherols, an ingredient in Thornes Vitamin D, may be sourced from soy oil.  Kirkland's has soy on its ingredient list. I avoid things that might contain or be exposed to crustaceans, like Metagenics says on its label.  I have a crustacean/shellfish/fish allergy.  I like Life Extension Bioactive Complete B Complex.  I take additional Thiamine B 1 in the form Benfotiamine which helps the intestines heal, Life Extension MegaBenfotiamine. Thiamine is needed to activate Vitamin D.   Low thiamine can make one feel like they are getting glutened after a meal containing lots of simple carbohydrates like white rice, or processed gluten free foods like cookies and pasta.   It's rare to have a single vitamin deficiency.  The water soluble B Complex vitamins should be supplemented together with additional Thiamine in the form Benfotiamine and Thiamine TTFD (tetrahydrofurfuryl disulfide) to correct subclinical deficiencies that don't show up on blood tests.  These are subclinical deficiencies within organs and tissues.  Blood is a transportation system.  The body will deplete tissues and organs in order to keep a supply of thiamine in the bloodstream going to the brain and heart.   If you're low in Vitamin D, you may well be low in other fat soluble vitamins like Vitamin A and Vitamin K. Have you seen a dietician?
