One of my best friends was recently diagnosed with celiac disease. I'm surprising her for her birthday with a few friends. I have about a month to test recipes out for a gluten free birthday cake. I've done some research online and found a few recipes, but I was wondering if any of you have recipes to share? What is your favorite birthday cake OR dessert to make that is gluten free? She LOVES chocolate so anything with chocolate will definitely be a big hit. Thanks so much for the advice!!

thanks guys for the recipes! :) can't wait to try them out. the zuchinni cake sounds great, i've had brownies made with zuchinni before, and i agree you definitely couldn't tell the difference.

The recipe zaar one bowl chocolate cake is really good. It's an old recipe that goes by a lot of different names, the Amish call it "whacky cake" and it was in the old "I hate to cook" book. It converts easily just by using a gluten free flour mix with some xanthan gum. As the notes say, with some flours you can cut down the xanthan gum and it still doesn't crumble. The original recipe with regular flour does not have an egg, and still works, the moisture comes from the oil and leaving out the dairy, which can toughen baked goods.

      Sometimes celiacs can also have other things like lactose intolerance which is fairly common. Also research fodmap foods, it's quite complicated but there are some other foods which can cause digestive issues. For me it's too many onions and garlic.

      You may be reacting to some of the ingredients used to imitate gluten products. I eat Amy's Chilli quite often with no problems. When I eat Bush's chilli beans or Hormel Chilli with the same ingredient list, I get heartburn.  Break out the alka seltzer.   Barillo spaghetti has CORN FLOUR, RICE FLOUR, MONO AND DIGLYCERIDES. Udi's White bread Ingredients - water, tapioca starch, brown rice flour, canola oil, dried egg whites, sugar, tapioca maltodextrin, tapioca syrup, sorghum flour, less than 2% of: rice starch, sorghum grain, flaxseed meal,  gum blend (xanthan gum, sodium alginate, guar gum), apple cider vinegar, apple fiber, molasses, salt, amaranth flour, teff flour, yeast, cultured brown rice, locust bean gum, enzymes Chobani Greek Yogurt Cultured nonfat milk, cane sugar, water, natural flavors, fruit pectin, guar gum, locust bean gum, vanilla extract, lemon juice concentrate.

      My TTG was 167 one year ago. Recently had it retested one month ago and it went down to 16. I only recently had an endoscopy done as I was pregnant within the last year. I did not eat gluten prior to this endoscopy as I get very sick. Prior to obtaining the biopsies, the endoscopy said “ diffuse moderately erythematous mucosa to the second part of the duodenum without bleeding.” However, the biopsy came back negative. I assume it’s a false negative as I have also had genetic testing to confirm celiac. However, what would cause the inflammation to the second part of the duodenum and continued positive blood markers if the intestines have healed?

      Thank you for direction.  Eating out is a concern though we rarely do, but I'm prepared now.
