I am impressed! I have been to so many gluten-free bakeries in several states and your goodies are much better. Most just offer cookies and overly iced cupcakes. Have always purchased but have never gone back for seconds. I used to be a pretty good baker. Presentation was not my forte, but the taste......still baking but I am like those lower level gluten-free bakeries. Just cookies and cupcakes. I have not even attempted working with yeast again.

Do not give up your dream yet. There has to be a way! Have relatives in CA?

Yummy! Your baked goods look so delicious.

I was going to suggest exactly what you said. Maybe you could get a job at a gluten free bakery in your area for a while and see what it is all about before taking the plunge on your own.

Be careful about sharing your recipes with them though. I'm sure you worked hard to perfect them. 

Maybe a bakery would offer to buy the recipes from you??? Or maybe you could create a gluten free baked goods cookbook and sell it.

Amazon.com lets people publish their books for digital Kindle download. Go to Open Original Shared Link for more info.

Your knits are adorable. Have you tried listing them on Etsy? I have bought probably 40 knit sweaters for my pups on that site.

Good luck!

Oops! I see they removed the name of the online retailer I mentioned. I didn't know I couldn't mention their name here.

Hopefully you will know which one I meant. The online retailer that makes and sells the Kindle.

Best of luck to you!

I was on etsy.com provably 3 years ago. I posted 4 sweaters, but nobody bought them, so I let it go. Currently I have 14 sweaters and baby dresses for sale. I'm planning to advertise them again on etsy under Simona's boutique (I don't know, if I can write my name here, if not, so remove it).

 

I wish from all my hearth that I could open a big gluten-free, cf, and nut free bakery and supply all you guys. Maybe using overnight delivery like Omaha, or Shari's (chocolate covered strawberries). I know that I would be successful. I have a "know how", but I need money and place. :angry: :angry: :rolleyes::)

Maybe one day....

We usually say it like Amazon. And that works. It's the ".com" part that makes it a link.

simona, every recipe i have ever tried of yours has been off the charts delicious!!  :)  and those sweaters are beautiful.  maybe try the farmer's market where you could sell both at once?  i wonder what the health code/criteria is for selling food at farmer's market.  i know we are allowed to sell canned stuff down here and the stall fee is pretty cheap.  something to try, anyway, and once you are out there, you can network and meet people who may be able to help you start something.  i have faith in your talent :)  good luck, whatever you decide.

      My bone structure is disintegrating and I’m having to have my teeth removed

      There’s a Cosco in Auckland in New Zealand. It’s a bit away from where I live but it’s worth the travel for me. Very appreciative of your advice.

      Celiac Maybe a Possibility?

      By Wheatwacked · Posted

      It seems you have proven that you cannot eat gluten.  You've done what your doctors have not been able to do in 40 years. That's your low vitamin D, a common symptom with Celiac Disease.  Zinc is also a common defiency.  Its an antiviral.  that's why zinc gluconate lozenges work against airborne viruses.  Vitamin D and the Immune System+ Toe cramps, I find 250 mg of Thiamine helps.   When I started GFD I counted 19 symptoms going back to childhood that improved with Gluten Free Diet and vitamin D. I still take 10,000 IU a day to maintain 80 ng/ml and get it tested 4 times a year. Highest was 93 ng/ml and that was at end of summer.  Any excess is stored in fat or excreted through bile.   The western diet is deficient in many nutrients including choline and iodine.  Thats why processed foods are fortified.  Celiac Disease causes malabsorption of vitamins and minerals from the small intestine damage.  GFD stops the damage, but you will still have symptoms of deficiency until you get your vitamins repleted to normal.  Try to reduce your omega 6:3 ratio.  The Standard American Diet is 14:1 or greater.  Healthy is 3:1.  Wheat flour is 22:1.  Potatoes are 3:1 while sweet potatoes are 14:1.  So those sweet potatos that everyone says is better than Russet: they are increasing your inflammation levels.

      Weird Symptoms

      My mother also has celiac disease, and one of her symptoms for many years before her diagnosis was TMJ. I believe it took her many years on a gluten-free diet before this issue went away.

      Weird Symptoms

      By Jeff Platt · Posted

      Ear pain and ringing your entire life may or may not be TMJ related but could be something else. A good TMJ exam would be helpful to rule that out as a potential cause from a dentist who treats that. I have teens as well as adults of all ages who suffer from TMJ issues so it’s not a certain age when it shows up.

      Weird Symptoms

      By cristiana · Posted

      Not sure if related to coeliac disease but my ear ringing  has stepped up a notch since diagnosis.  Even since a child silence really hurts my ears - there is always a really loud noise if there is no other noise in a quiet room - but my brain has learned to filter it out.  Since diagnosis in my forties I also get a metallic ringing in my ears, sometimes just one, sometimes both.  But it comes and goes.   My sister also suffers now, we are both in our fifties, but she is not a coeliac, so for all I know it could just be an age thing.  I do get occasional stabbing pain in my ears but that has been all my life, and I do appear to be vulnerable to outer ear infections too.  So not a particularly helpful reply here, but I suppose what I am trying to say is it might be related but then again it could just be one of those things.   I think in the UK where I live doctors like you to report if you get tinnitus in just the one ear.  I reported mine but no cause was found.  Most of the time it is nothing but sometimes it can have a cause that can be treated, so perhaps worth reporting to your GP.
