Gluten Free Castle Cake

Hi! This is a great birthday cake for kids. I made one for my daughter's birthday Saturday and it was really fun! I have photos, let me know if you want to see them. I don't have them saved on an online photo thingy yet.

GLUTEN FREE CASTLE CAKE:

1 1/2 cups white rice flour

3/4 cups tapioca flour

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon baking soda

3 teaspoons baking powder

1 teaspoon xanthan gum

4 eggs

1 1/4 cups white sugar

2/3 cup mayonnaise

1 cup milk3 teaspoons gluten free vanilla extract

VANILLA CREAM CHEESE FROSTING:

2 boxes cream cheese

3 cups powdered sugar

4 teaspoons gluten free vanilla

DECORATIONS:

1/2 bag Mi-del mini chocolate chip cookies

4 gluten free ice cream cup cones

4 gluten free sugar cones (Barkat brand)

THE CAKE:

Preheat over to 350 degrees F. Grease 1 bunt cake pan and one long loaf pan (or two regular loaf pans). Mix the dry ingredients except for the sugar in one bowl, mix eggs, sugar, vanilla, and mayo in a different bowl until well combined. Add the flour mixture a bit at a time, alternating with the milk.

Pour mixture into pans. Bake for 25 minutes our until a toothpick comes out clean.

THE FROSTING:

Mix 2 boxes softened cream cheese well, add the sugar and vanilla and whip until fluffy.

PUT IT TOGETHER:

Remove cakes from pans and let cool. Cut the loaf cake into 4 equal parts (or cut both loaf cakes into 2 equal parts, if you used smaller pans). Cover a large cookie sheet with foil.

Place the bunt cake in the center of the pan, and frost all over with the frosting. Using a sharp knife, trim top and bottom of the 4 rectangular pieces so that they are level. Frost the tops and sides of all 4 cakes, and place them around the center cake.

Assemble the turrets: Using a frosting bag or decorating 'gun', pipe frosting around the top of a cup-style ice cream cone. Place a dab of frosting on the bottom of the cone as well. Place a sugar cone on top of the cup cone, and then place the finished turret on top of a rectangular cake. Repeat these steps for the remaining 3 rectangular cakes. Assemble the last cones as described, and place in the center of the bunt cake, over the hole (you may need to place a small drinking glass or other container upside down in the hole to stand the cones on).

      Contradicting length of time for gluten challenge - please help to ensure not getting false negative. Thank you!

      Okay, it does make sense to continue the gluten challenge as long as you are already in the middle of it. But what will change if you rule it out? I mean, you have concluded that whatever label you want to give the condition, many of your symptoms improved when you went gluten free. Am I correct in that? According to how I understand your posting, the only symptom that hasn't responded to gluten free eating is the bone demineralization. Did I misunderstand? And if you do test positive, what will you do different than you are doing now? You have already been doing for years the main thing you should be doing and that is eating gluten free. Concerning how long you should stay on the gluten challenge, how many weeks are you into it already?

      I mean that I will be re-taking the celiac blood test again while I am currently on the gluten challenge right now, but not sure how many weeks more to keep going, to ensure a false negative does not happen. Thank you.

      Thank you for your help, I am currently in the middle of the gluten challenge. A bit over 6 weeks in. At 4 weeks I got the celiac blood tests and that is when they were negative. So to rule out the false negative, since I’m in the middle of the gluten challenge right now and will never do this again, I wanted to continue consuming gluten to the point to make sure the blood tests are not a false negative - which I did not receive a firm answer for how many weeks total.    My issue is, with these blood tests the doctors say “you are not celiac” and rule it out completely as a potential cause of my issues, when the symptoms scream of it. I want to rule out this 30 year mystery for my own health since I’m in the middle of it right now. Thank you!

      I am a male and had developed osteopenia by age 50 which is when I finally got dx with celiac disease. I am sure I had it for at least 13 years before that because it was then I developed idiopathic elevated liver enzymes. I now have a little scoliosis and pronounced kyphosis (upper spine curvature).  All of your symptoms scream of celiac disease, even if the testing you have had done does not. You may be an atypical celiac, meaning the disease is not manifesting itself in your gut but is attacking other body systems. There is such a thing as sero negative celiac disease. But you still have not given me a satisfactory answer to my question of why do you need a differential dx between celiac disease and NCGS when either one would call for complete abstinence from gluten, which you have already been practicing except for short periods when you were undergoing a gluten challenge. Why do you want to put a toxic substance into your body for weeks when, even if it did produce a positive test result for celiac disease, neither you or your doctors would do anything different? Regardless of what doctors are recommending to you, it is your body it is affecting not theirs and they don't seem to have given you any good justification for starting another gluten challenge. Where you live, are doctors kings or something?

      Sorry to put it clearly, at 15, infertility started (tried to word it nicely) meaning menstruation stopped. Which is in correlation to celiac I mean. Thank you.
