Wedding Cake Questions

Hi, all!

I'm in the process of planning a gluten-free wedding reception (mine) for December. My mom wanted me to ask if there is any problem with tripling (or whatever math would have to be done) a cake recipe, such as Annalise Roberts's Coconut Layer Cake, which I have the recipe for and have read here that it's been used with great success. To me, common sense would seem to say that multiplying out the recipe wouldn't change anything, but we want to be sure.

Secondly, I've also read in previous threads that Carol Fenster has a wedding cake recipe, but I can't search inside the book on Amazon, so I don't know if it's in Special Diet Solutions or Gluten Free Celebrations. Also, I'm a little concerned by the rest of the title of Special Diet... because I only want to cut out gluten, not eggs, etc. Can anyone help me with this? Thanks so much!

I doubled and tripled Annalise Roberts's carrot cake for my wedding cake last Sept. I had a two 9" rounds, a 12" round, and a 14" round. I believe the 14" round took 3 batches of batter. I froze them all and frosted them when they were pretty cold.

Here's a photo!

Annalise created her white (butter) cake recipe for me. I was searching for a wedding cake type consistency and she worked and worked and worked and came up with that recipe for me!! She is such a sweetie. It is on page 37 of her cookbook.

It is AWESOME!!! I highly recommend it. My family (not gluten-free) begs for it at birthdays and special occasions.

      Thank you. That’s all really helpful. I think it must have been something she ate as the poo colour has settled now.    Starting to see improvements in her tummy, slowly but surely!

      I take all vitamins and supplements.  My cardiologist has me taking B12 5,000 once per weeks.  He gives me complete blood work every 6 months.  He's still building my D levels which is now in 60s.  He wants them in low 80s.  I take 5,000 IU's daily.  With this dosage I've gone from 42 to 65 over a period of about 5 years.  It builds very slowly.   As far as iron, I take a double dose of gentle iron with C on an empty stomach on alternate nights.  Yes, iron is a component for many of us with RLS, but mostly "brain iron" that in some people may require iron transfusions.

      The positive DGP-IGA indicates the possibility of celiac disease. It is typical for someone who does have celiac disease to have some antibody tests be negative and others positive. This is not unique to celiac disease diagnosis. It is why doctors typically run many tests when seeking diagnosis of a suspected disease.  The DGP-IgA test is considered to have high sensitivity and specificity. In general, the DGP-IgA test has been reported to have a sensitivity ranging from 75% to 95% and a specificity ranging from 90% to 100%. Overall, the DGP tests, including DGP-IgA and DGP-IgG, exhibit a sensitivity of approximately 85-95% and a specificity of about 95-98%. The above paragraph is taken from this article which gives an overview of the various tests that can be run for celiac disease and their reliability: What symptoms are you experiencing?

      Yes, get serum antibody testing done for celiac disease. You could also have NCGS (Non Celiac Gluten Sensitivity). NCGS shares many of the same symptoms of celiac disease but does not damage the lining of the small bowel as does celiac disease. There is no test for it. A diagnosis for NCGS depends on first ruling out celiac disease. It is 10x more common than celiac disease. Some experts feel it can be a precursor to the development of celiac disease. Eliminating gluten from your life is the antidote for both.
