Pamela's Vanilla Cake Mix

Has anyone tried Pamela's Vanilla Cake Mix or Arrowhead Mills Vanilla Cake Mix? I want to make an easy gluten-free cake for my 3 year old's birthday next week, and we tried Namaste Vanilla Cake mix and it wasn't very good. I was just wondering about the other two brands, or if anyone has a suggestion about a different brand that tastes similar to the real thing that would be great! Thanks!

Hi Laura,

I've not tried Pamelas since I can't tolerate tapioca, and I'm not a fan of Arrowhead Mills baking mix, so I've never tried the cake mixes.

My favorite gluten-free cake mix by far is Cause You're Special. The Lemon and Yellow flavors are delicious and the testure is light--more like a wheat-based cake mix.

Gluten Free Pantry makes a white cake mix that's good, too.

Pamela's is excellent! Not expensive & everyone eats it . I usually make my own but when I'm in a hurry Pamela's is the one I use. I not a big fan of Nasmaste.. or Arrowhead mills.....most people do not even know that they are eating a gluten-free cake with Pamela's.

Avoid AT ALL COSTS the Arrowhead mills cake. It is the grittiest, grossest thing I have ever eaten. Like chowing down on a pile of vanilla sand. Gack.

Pamela's vanilla cake is great. I have one in the oven as we speak for my son's birthday today. The smell, taste and texture are great, it's not that expensive, and it's easy to find.

My Favorite that I have tried is called Namaste Foods ... I literally could not stop eating it. I mean this was better then gluten cake. Trust me I have eaten a lot of cake in my life time gluten and non gluten. Not only is it the best tasting I have found it is super easy to make. The only change I made to it was adding about half a cup more sugar to the batter. It was fantastic. I bought it at whole foods.

Pamela's is definitely the one I've used to feed non-gluten-free people. Its my favorite, as the flavor is much the same. The texture is much denser, but that's really the only difference. The chocolate cake mix is just to die for as well.

My son loves Pamela's vanilla cake. In fact, I am making one on Wednesday to bring to a family gathering. It's yummy!

I love Pamela's Chocolate Cake Mix. I'm not so fond of the Vanilla Cake Mix. I do, make the pound cake recipe that's on the bag. I add Health Bar Chips and Coconut and it's wonderful with no calories ;):P ,

I like Pamela's chocolate cake mix, but not the vanilla. I have been told that Authentic Food's makes a good vanilla cake mix, but I've not tried it yet. I think vanilla cake must be one of the more difficult things to master... ;)

      High blood test numbers - with scales. Any advice?

      By RMJ · Posted

      I’d say celiac is likely.  Please continue to eat plenty of gluten until your endoscopy to be sure that any gluten-related damage can be seen.  Plus it gives you one last chance to enjoy your favorite gluten-containing foods. I hope the endoscopy/biopsies give you a definitive answer.

      I do also have the bloating, gas, constipation, hair loss, an auto-splenectomy that no one can see any reason for and some elevated liver enzymes that don't seem to have a cause, I also have joint pain and some spinal compression fractures that have no explanation.  I am only 42 so haven't had a bone density test yet.  My calcium was normal, but my D was a little low.  They haven't checked for any other vitamin deficiencies yet.  My blood test for an autoimmue disorder was quite high but my Thyroid was all normal.

      Hi, I have been having a lot of back pain and gut issues for 8 weeks or so.  I saw the GI on Monday and my results just came in from the lab.  Some of these number are high and off the little chart from the lab.  I am reading this correctly that I most likely have Celiac, right???  It would explain a lot of things for me.  She does have me scheduled for a colonoscopy and endoscopy in  2 weeks to do the biopsy.  I posted this prior, but forgot to put the range assuming they were all the same.  Someone advised me to repost with the ranges for some insight in the meantime. Immunoglobulin A, Qn, Serum 140 (normal) - Normal is 87-352 Deamidated Gliadin Abs, IgA 256 (High) - Moderate to strong positive at or above 30 Deamidated Gliadin Abs, IgG 65 (High) - Moderate to strong positive at or above 30 t-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgA 31 (High) - Moderate to strong positive above 10 t-Transglutaminase (tTG) IgG 10 (High) - Positive is at or above 10

      Colonoscopy with large area of inflammation

      By trents · Posted

      Usually, the blood testing is done first and the endoscopy/biopsy follows for confirmation if there are positive antibody test scores. Historically, the endoscopy with biopsy has been considered to be the gold standard for diagnosing celiac disease. If the tTG-IGA scores are very high (5x-10x normal), some doctors will forego the endoscpoy/biopsy and grant a celiac disease diagnosis without it. So, if you are starting with the endoscopy/biopsy that may be all you need to arrive at a diagnosis. Another possibility would be for the GI doc to do a blood draw for antibody testing on the same day you come in for the endoscopy/biopsy.
