Huge Bubble At The Top Of My gluten-free Cakes


Shiba

Recommended Posts

Shiba Newbie

I have managed to make a great gluten-free sponge cake, and also a gluten-free chocolate roll.

Texture and taste is great, BUT the cakes rise a lot, leaving a huge bubble between the top and the body of the cake. So when it's cooled, it collapses a bit (not a problem) and then the top tends to lift away. This means that when I unroll the chocolate roll to fill it, most of the top stays on the baking paper, no matter how much I've dusted it with icing sugar. Likewise with the sponge, so icing it is a big hassle.

Does anyone know why this is happening? I mean, am I beating the eggs too much, or is htere something I should add?

TIA

The only suggestion I have is to take the pan once you've poured the batter in and drop it on the counter from about six inches up a few times, to shake out air bubbles. And maybe refridgerate the batter first, does that make sense to anyone else? Would that keep it from rising at all? And for the chocolate roll, try using a towel to roll it up instead of baking paper.

      Just judging from the reports we get from forum members sharing their endoscopy results, very common. But we also get a lot of reports of inflammation in those areas coupled with a negative biopsy for celiac. But I wonder if in a lot of those latter cases we are seeing NCGS or a transition from NCGS to celiac. I have no scientific data to support that. It's just a hunch.

      I don't have symptoms now. But this DGP IgG is high than normal. I read your article. Very nice by the way. Based on it I don't need to do DGP IgG because I don't have IgA deficiency. I did it first time because those days I didn't know the right procedure for blood tests so I did all. What might you do if you was me? Just keep eating gluten and do tests again after some time? Biopsy is not available in my town. I also read somewhere if a person has NCGS he doesn't have any blood tests high. Very confusing situation.

      What can I do next? Just continue getting gluten from food and do the tests again after some time like 6 months while observing symptoms if any? I read somewhere if a person has NCGS he shouldn't have any blood tests high. So I'm worry.

      Wow she was just playing with play dough yesterday and I actually thought i wonder if I have to worry about play dough! But no meltdowns yesterday. Is your daughter celiac or just gluten sensitive/intolerant? Your son still had to go on Ritalin after going gluten free?

      I had the endoscopy with biopsy done. I have gastritis and duodenitis at this point. The biopsy should provide the cause of the inflammation findings. How common are these findings when Celiac is the ultimate culprit?
