Hi All!

I am new the gluten-free "lifestyle"...it certainly is one! I keep finding out things I thought were safe and possibly aren't such as...baking powder. Does any one know who makes a true blue gluten-free baking powder and where I might buy/order it? Thanks a million. Please reply soon. I miss my muffins ;-)

I've never seen a baking powder with gluten in it. What are the ingredients of your current one?

Welcome to the gluten free life :)

Hi and welcome :)

I use Rumford Premium Aluminum-Free Baking Powder. It is marked gluten-free right on the container.

I saw Calumet Baking Powder listed on a Gluten Free list we got from the nutritionist. It's made by Kraft (I think) or one of the companies that doesn't hide their gluten. It's "double acting" and my stuff has been rising like CRAZY since I started using it. It works GREAT. And it's gluten free.

Baking powder

Here's baking powder: 1 tablespoon cream of tartar, 1/2 tablespoon baking soda, 1/2 tablespoon arrowroot. That's it, it works just as well as the stuff you buy.

Or

You can substitute baking powder in place of baking soda (you'll need more baking powder and it may affect the taste), but you can't use baking soda when a recipe calls for baking powder. Baking soda by itself lacks the acidity to make a cake rise. However, you can make your own baking powder if you have baking soda and cream of tartar. Simply mix two parts cream of tartar with one part baking soda.

This was posted somewhere in this site and I copied it down.

Thanks, everyone!

Whew! I was using Calumet so I guess I am ok. My naturopath gave me a list of food to avoid b/c they may POSSIBLY have gluten and when I saw baking powder, my heart sank. Ok, that is great. Thanks Agian.

Just make sure you never used a gluten-y utensil in your baking powder! (I have a habit of stirring with whatever's in my hand, had to throw a lot out)

      Second child with Celia

      By lizzie42 · Posted

      After my 3 year old daughter's diagnosis, we all got tested. My 5 year old son also came back positive with number 12x the upper limit.  We will confirm with another tTG and the other 2 tests in the panel.  He has zero symptoms that I have noticed. Maybe occasionally vomiting. He does have asthma. He's kind of an a**hole sometimes but also he's 5. He has SO much energy. Like miles and miles of biking, running, gymnastics. Never stops. Eats great, normal growth. It was comparing my daughter to him that made me push to figure out what was wrong with her!  Is it possible for a tTG test to just be totally wrong?

      European travel with Celiac Disease

      By CJF · Posted

      I'm heading to the UK for a vacation the end of this month on a tour with Road Scholar. I haven't been out of the US since my diagnosis so I'm a little concerned about exposure to gluten during my travels. Most of our meals are provided by the tour. Either the hotels we are staying at, or places we will visit. Road Scholar is aware of my dietary needs as well. Any helpful hints about navigating the restaurants in England is greatly appreciated. Also are there any medications out there to help mitigate the effects of exposure to gluten? Thanks in advance.
