Gluten Free Desserts

Ok, I need to tell other celiac's about this. I went out to eat tonight with some friends. I had looked at the menu before at was pretty sure I could figure something out to eat. I had called as well, and the person I spoke with seemed to understand what gluten free meant.

Ok, so we got to the resaturant, its called the Sunflower, its in Boulder, CO. I had eaten their, prior to my gluten-free diet. Its pretty good. Its a place that servers only organic foods and such. Its a restaurant though, so its all dish's made with organic things.

The menu was very non gluten-free friendly, but they made me some salmon that was really good. Not feeling sick yet either...

Now comes dessert. I was like, well I probably can have ice cream. The waiter brought out the "display" platter of all the cakes and pies. The last dessert caught my attention. I thought.. "wait! DID he say what I thought he did?""" I asked to repeat, and he said "and this is our flour free gluten free chocolate pie" I was like hello! I will have that. It was great! I was shocked and further amazed then when I looked at the dessert menu, and it actaully had a symbol for vegetarian,ok I expected that, but it also have a symbol for all desserts that were wheat free! Woohoo. I remeber seeing that when I was around in England and some places in Europe, but having one place here, even it if it was just a dessert menu was cool.

Oh, here their website.

All in all my meal was good, and dessert was great... I was a bit nervous at eating my salmon dinner their as it was very "mixed" together with a glaze and some potatoes, but the waiter had assured me their chef well understood a gluten-free diet and would make it especiially for me. Still feeling ok. :>

      Welcome to the forum, @yellowstone! The most common ones seem to be dairy (casein), oats, eggs, soy and corn. "Formed" meat products (because of the "meat glue" used to hold their shape) is a problem for some. But it can be almost anything on an individual basis as your sensitivity to rice proves, since rice is uncommonly a "cross reactor" for celiacs. Some celiacs seem to not do well with any cereal grains.

      What foods can trigger a response in people with gluten sensitivity? I've read that there are foods that, although they don't contain gluten, can cause problems for people with gluten sensitivity because they contain proteins similar to gluten that trigger a response in the body. I've seen that other cereals are included: corn, rice... also chicken, casein. I would like to know what other foods can cause this reaction, and if you have more information on the subject, I would like to know about it. Right now, I react very badly to rice and corn. Thank you.
