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.

      Celebrity Cruise for Gluten Free

      By gregoryC · Posted

      Just finished my second celebrity cruise. My first was on one of their oldest ships, it was awesome! Now we have sailed on the edge class. Wow! Not only do they have so many gluten-free options but the selection is mind blowing! Any given day you will have between 5 to 7 different gluten-free cakes to try. Yes that is right, one day at the coffee shop I had to choose between 5 gluten-free cakes not including the several puddings on display. So they gave me a small piece of each. 2 were great, 2 were just good, and 1 I did not enjoy. But never have I had the tough decision of which cake to eat?  These selections are from their normal options available for all guest. In the main dining room they always surprised me with some awesome desserts.  In my opinion the best pizza was on the Millennium class and best buffet on the Edge class. Although these two ship vary in size they are both consistent and serving high quality food from the main dinning room. The edge class gives you 4 “main” dining rooms (all included). I was unsure how this would work with my gluten-free diet? It worked great! I was able to order or see the next night’s menu for each of the four dinning venues finding that very little to no modifications needed to be made due to their extensive gluten free options.  The Millennium and Edge class ships provide the best gluten-free options from any of the cruise lines I have sailed with. You will find a larger selection and options on the edge class ships, however you will not be disappointed with the smaller Millennium class. Which is still my favorite cruise ship to date.

      9 year old- questionable results

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @ABP! We can't comment on the test numbers you give as you didn't include the range for negative. Different labs use different units and different ranges. There are no industry standards for this so we need more information. If your daughter doesn't have celiac disease she still could have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity) which some experts believe can be a precursor to celiac disease and is 10x more common than celiac disease. However, there is no test for it yet but it does share many of the same symptoms with celiac disease. Both require complete abstinence from gluten.  It is seldom the case during testing where all tests are positive, even for those who do have celiac disease. This is no different than when diagnosing other medical conditions and that is why it is typical to run numbers of tests that come at things from different angles when seeking to arrive at a diagnosis. It seems like you are at the point, since you have had both blood antibody testing and endoscopy/biopsy done, that you need to trial the gluten free diet. If her symptoms improve then you know all you need to know, whatever you label you want to give it. But given that apparently at least one celiac antibody blood test is positive and she has classic celiac symptoms such as slow growth, constipation and bloating, my money would be on celiac disease as opposed to NCGS.

      9 year old- questionable results

      By ABP · Posted

      My nine-year-old daughter has suffered with severe constipation and bloating for years as well as frequent mouth sores, and keratosis Polaris on her arms. She also has recently decreased on her growth curve her % going down gradually.  After seeing a gastroenterologist, her IgG GLIADIN (DEAMIDATED) AB (IGG) was 22.4 while her IGA was normal. Her TISSUE TRANSGLUTAMINASE AB, IGA was 11.9.  Most recently her genetic test for celiac was positive.  After an endoscopy her tissue showed inflammation of the tissue as well as , increased intraepithelial lymphocytes (IELs) but there was no blunting of the change in the villi.    It seems that every result that we get one out of two things positive rather than all leading to an inconclusive diagnosis. While we do have another appointment with the doctor to go over the results. I'm curious based on this information what others think.    I would hate to have her eliminate gluten if not necessary- but also don't want to not remove if it is necessary.    Signed Confused and Concerned Mama

      Gluten Free ADHD medications

      I guess using "GF" instead of "PL" would have been too easy! 😉

      Help with blood test result

      By trents · Posted

      I was wrong, however, about there being no particular health concerns associated with high total IGA: https://www.inspire.com/resources/chronic-disease/understanding-high-iga-levels-causes-impacts/ So maybe the physician's "borderline" remark is relevant to that.
