So..this is the first year me and my husband are gluten free and his birthday is coming up on the 14th. I've been trying to find a really good recipe for soy and gluten free mocha cake. the Gluten is the bigger deal we can have soy if necessary. I tried looking at betty crockers gluten free stuff but I don't see anything mocha. I am doubting i can just get chocolate cake mix and mix coffee into it...suggestions? I'd really appreciate it!

I don't know what a mocha cake is - other than espresso powder added to cake and frosting. If that's what you mean, I'd buy King Arthur gluten-free chocolate cake mix and espresso powder. Add about 1 tsp. each to the cake and frosting.

Brewed coffee won't give you the flavor you're looking for. You need espresso powder.

You could try this. I subscribe to this mag and their recipes are usually quite good.

Happy Birthday to your hubs!

I would think any chocolate cake mix could be used, just use coffee instead of water for the cake mix, and put espresso powder in the frosting as previously suggested. Sounds good!

      What apps or tech tools help you manage celiac disease?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Olenaideole! There are phone apps that read product bar codes to check for gluten ingredients but they depend on user input maintained data bases so they are generally incomplete. There have also been pocket gluten detection meter gadgets available in the past but I'm not sure if any are still on the market. The main company that manufactured them sold the business to someone else who eventually discontinued the product. Not sure if any knock offs are available yet. And even so, that was an expensive gadget that required the purchase of non reusable cartridges that were themselves expensive.

      Biopsy confirmed no celiac, low gliadin igg but high gliadin iga?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Gliadingoaway! You say you "avoided gluten for awhile". What was the timing of that with regard to when the biopsy and blood draw for the celiac antibody tests were done? If they coincided, that would explain the negative biopsy results and the mixed results in the blood antibody testing for celiac disease. Any testing for celiac disease is invalidated when a person has been on a gluten free diet leading up to the testing. Those having already embarked on the gluten free diet must restart gluten consumption in generous amounts for weeks/months prior to testing if they wish a valid diagnosis. By generous amounts, I mean at least 10g of gluten daily which is the amount found in about 4-6 slices of wheat bread.

      SSRI stopped working after gluten free diet due to Celiac diag

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Redlima! Not sure if this could relate to your issue but it is well-known by the celiac community that gluten has an opiate-like effect that causes some people to experience withdrawal symptoms upon going gluten free. This usually manifests itself within the first few weeks. So, I'm not sure that fits with your time frame. Also, I wonder if the healing of the villous lining of the small bowel since going gluten free and how that improves absorption of vitamins and minerals might have something to do with what you describe. It may have changed the way the SSRI was being metabolized or something. When you ask about the impact of CBT on mental health after going gluten free are you referring to the direct effect of CBT on mood or to coping with the social impact and lifestyle changes that celiac disease and having to eat gluten free inevitably brings?

      Biopsy confirmed no celiac, low gliadin igg but high gliadin iga?

      By Gliadingoaway · Posted

      Biopsy confirmed no celiac but I did have gastritis from h pylori. Gliadin IgG was low but Gliadin IgA was high. Anyone know if this gluten sensitivity is temporary and goes away as I recover from gastritis? I avoided gluten for awhile but wonder if I should go back to gluten over time. I did eat fried wings last week with gluten by accident and felt fine afterwards. Just wondering why gliadin iga is high
