Can anyone recommend a really great gluten-free dessert that the normal gluten eating population would love? I have to bring a dessert to a party. My normal standby awsome dessert is a flourless choclate cake, but this dessert has to be chocolate free.

Any thoughts?

If you can find it my favorite is Gluten-Free Pantry's Angel Food Cake mix. Especially if you have a big stand mixer. I think it is exactly like a gluteny angel food cake. Love it.

Open Original Shared Link is my favorite desert of all time. I haven't made it since going gluten-free but I suspect even with the normal brands I was using it is already gluten free. If not, it would be easy to substitute a gluten-free brand for any gluten containing item in this list.

A couple of warnings however. This is not a desert you make and take. This has to be made on site and eating immediately. Also, the there are not enough digits on your calorie counter to count the calories in this thing!

If you can get your hands on a bag of the Gluten Free Pantry truffle brownie mix. That is a crowd pleaser and non-celiac enjoy it as much if not more than we do.

APPLE CRISP

10 Apple peeled and diced

1 cup of brown sugar

3 tbsp of cinnamon

1 box of Enjoy life - Cinnamon cluster cereal ( not sure if that is the right name but they only have the 3 choices of cereal and the cinnamon one is the one you need.

Mix apple, sugar and cinnamon and put in a casserole dish.

Crush the cereal into smaller peices, mix with 1 tsp on cinnamon and 1/4 cup of brown sugar and sprinke over the top of the apple mixture.

BAKE 350 for about 30-45 minutes.

If you want it low fat you can use sugar free brown sugar splenda.

I like it and most people I fed it to liked it and didn't know it was fat free or gluten free so I think it is good.

People who don't have a lactose problem will eat it with ice cream or whip cream. I eat it just plain.

Good luck

Strawberries are in season here! How a strawberry pavlova? It's a meringue crust spread with real whipped cream and piled high with lush, beautiful berries. It's delicious and naturally gluten-free.

Thanks everyone. I just bought the gluten-free Pantry angel food cake mix. And the Pavlova sounds AMAZING. I like the fact that it is a traditional dessert, so it should be great no matter what!

      Gluten Ataxia and Malabsorption

      I have been on supplementation for almost 11 months with no deficiencies showing up on blood work. So was just hoping to hear someone else’s story where it took longer to heal.

      Here’s the answer from the company 😊   Hi Emily,    Thank you for reaching out to us! We can confirm the Organic Protein + 50 Superfoods Powder is gluten free. The organic barley and wheatgrasses we use are harvested prior to jointing, before the grain forms and any gluten protein is present. Rest assured appropriate measures are taken to ensure our gluten free products comply with the FDA final rule to be labeled as gluten free, as claimed on the side-panel label. Our suppliers are required to verify each ingredient and in order to ensure that our gluten free products comply with the FDA requirements, our manufacturing facilities use the ELISA test method to confirm gluten levels are less than the standard limit of <20 ppm.    If you have allergy concerns about consuming the grasses, we recommend consulting further with your healthcare provider. I hope this information helps! Please let us know if you have other questions.

      Postponing seeking a diagnosis?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @kim-d! Recently revised guidelines or the "gluten challenge" recommends the daily consumption of at least 10g of gluten for at least two weeks up until the day of the antibody test blood draw. 10g of gluten is the amount found in about 4-6 slices of wheat bread. IMO, I would wait until you have time to do it right so as to remove all doubt as to whether or not your gluten consumption was adequate for long enough to ensure valid testing. In the meantime, focus on removing gluten from your diet and see how your symptoms improve (or not) as one piece of the diagnostic puzzle.

      Postponing seeking a diagnosis?

      By kim-d · Posted

      Hello. I'm a 22 year old college student and I've had constant stomach problems since I was 14. Recently I noticed that my problems get worse when I eat more wheat. I tried to follow a gluten free diet, which didn't end up entirely gluten free, but I still had reduced my gluten consumption very much, and I felt a lot better. I also have fatigue, inability to gain any weight, iron deficiency, possible vitamin deficiencies, really bad memory and brain fog that increases by time, unexplainable muscle aches and tachycardia which all can possibly explained by celiac/NCGS.  I wasn't able to continue a completely gluten free diet as I am eating from my school and dorm's cafeteria and almost all food there have gluten so I was going very hungry. They do offer a gluten free menu with a report though. So I decided I should try getting a diagnosis if I can, especially after reading how it was much harder to do gluten challenge after quitting gluten for a while. I was able to get an appointment for next week, and started eating around 150gr of bread per day to be sure.  First 24 hours I didn't feel any worse so I was starting to doubt myself, but then bloating hit hard. It wasn't anything unbearable, but the problem is I have finals soon and I'm now realizing this is a really bad time to do this. I can't begin studying from pain distracting me. I'm thinking of cancelling the appointment and eat low gluten until exams are over.  I worry about one thing. Before I went low gluten, I was eating a lot of bread already for over a month, which is what clued me into gluten, and I only went low gluten for around 10 days before going high gluten again. I wasn't that worried about a false negative. But if I eat low gluten until my exams are over, it means over a month of low gluten, and I would need a lot more time eating high gluten later to get a correct result.  I'm not sure which one should I do, bear it until my appointment or cancel it and try again when I'm free later. And If I choose the second one, how long would I need to do the gluten challenge for a blood test?
