Babycakes

It seems like in NYC cupcake cafes are emerging everywhere (Magnolia's, Billy's, Crumbs, etc.), unfortunately they are off limits to people with Celiac Disease and other food allergies. However, I was reading this week in Time Out New York magazine that there is a new cupcake cafe called, Babycakes. All of their cupcakes are gluten free, egg free, dairy free, and free of refined sugars. They are made with very healthy ingredients too. The bakery is open fairly late (until about 10pm) and is located on 248 Broome Street (between Ludlow and Orchard Sts.). I haven't tried it yet, but I most likely will soon. You can see pictures of the cupcakes at Open Original Shared Link . They look very good! Has anyone tried this place yet? If so, what did you think?

OH MY GOD!!!!!! :D

Im so happy I joined this site!!! You learn new things all the time. I was soooo happy to read about a gluten-free Cupcake bakery!!!!!!!!! I havent had a true cupcake in 7 years!!! How did they taste???

I live in NYC. I love Broome St/Bleeker, etc... Will def. go check it out asap. BTW, theres a place close by called Risotteria and they have lots of gluten-free food (including a killer brownie!!!!). Try it out if possible.

I found about this through a web site called CeliacChicks.

This is soooo awesome to exchange gluten-free places in NYC........

Ive heard of a few others, never tried them though.

Lately Ive been eating the gluten-free food at PF Changs. UNBELIEVABLE gluten-free food---what a feeling eating gluten-free Chinese food that doesnt taste gluten-free at all!!!!!!! :o ).

Im so excited :lol:

To mandigirl-

Hey, I've been to Risotteria--the best gluten-free restaurant in NYC... Risotteria was trained by the GFRAP (Gluten-free restaurant awareness program). The GFRAP has many other restaurants certified as being trained to cook gluten-free:

Someone else mentioned Happy Happy Happy, a bakery not on this list, but one that serves gluten-free food, nonetheless: Open Original Shared Link

The cupcakes at Happy Happy Happy are awesome, but I'll definately try this one to. Funny you should post this though, I was just thinking today about how much I miss Crumbs.

      Cold/flu or gluten poisoning? Hello. I've had another similar episode. I find it very difficult to differentiate between the symptoms of a cold or flu and those caused by gluten poisoning. In fact, I don't know if my current worsening is due to having eaten something that disagreed with me or if the cold I have has caused my body, which is hypersensitive, to produce symptoms similar to those of gluten poisoning.

      I'm no longer dealing with constipation. I got my liver test last month and it was in normal range. Two years ago I did have a vitamin D deficiency but I'm know taking vitamin D3 pills. Last month I got my vitamin D checked and it was in normal range. I don't believe I've had my choline checked. However, I do drink almond milk eat Greek yogurt on a daily basis.

      Non-Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (NCGS) can be associated with low ferritin and iron deficiency. Once Celiac Disease (1% of the population affected) has been ruled out by tests the next step is to check for Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity (10% of the population affected) by eliminating gluten for a trial period, then re-introduce Gluten Challange. Have you been supplementing Iron? How are your liver enzymes? Low levels of ferritin indicate iron deficiency, while  59% transferrin saturation indicates high iron levels.  Possibly indicating Fatty Liver Disease.  Choline is crucial for liver health, and deficiency is a known trigger for Non-Alcoholic Fatty Liver.  Some experts say that less than 10% eat the the Food and Nutrition Board established Adequate Intake that are based on the prevention of liver damage. Severe constipation and hemorrhoids may be linked to a bile or choline deficiency.  "Ninety-five percent of phospholipids (PLs) in bile is secreted as phosphatidylcholine or lecithin."  Fatty acid composition of phospholipids in bile in man   Deficiency of these bile salts causes the bile to get thick. Some people with Celiac Disease are misdiagnosed with Gall Bladder bile issues.  Removal of the gallbladder provides only temporary relief. Whether or not celiac disease or NCGS are your issues you need to look at your vitamin D blood level.

      If you have hemorrhoids 1x weekly I don't see how you have time to heal from one episode before you experience another one, unless each one is a very minor event. Have you consulted a physician about your hemorrhoid issue? It's not normal to be having an episode every week unless it is really one episode that is not completely healing between weekly flareups.
