Is All Baking Powder Gluten Free?

I want to make a gluten free chocolate zucchini cake for my granddaughter's birthday. This will be the first birthday treat that I will be able to eat in a very long time. My recipe calls for baking powder and baking soda. I know Arm & Hammer baking soda is gluten free. What about baking powder? Do I have to buy an expensive one that states it is gluten free on the package?

Thanks in advance for any response I get.

Calumet baking powder should be gluten-free. Its made by Kraft and they will list any gluten (& my can doesn't mention any allergens). Its the one with the dark red can with the Native American picture on it.

Thanks! I didn't know it was made by Kraft. I've used it in the past but don't have any right now so wasn't able to check the contents.

I'm so excited about making this cake! The recipe I have calls for a tube or bundt pan so I know my little pan is going to be too small. I bought a new muffin pan for 12 so I can make those and freeze them.

Make your own gluten-free baking Powder.

2 parts cream of tartar

1 part baking soda

1 part starch (corn, tapioca etc) to keep it from 'clumping'

keep in a clean screwtop jar.

Best Regards,

David

      Hi again Sorry to be a pain but my daughter started on her Vitamin B medication a week ago, not sure what dosage as she hasn’t said. However she has been feeling much worse the last couple of days with back pain, bowel and tummy problems, blurry vision, tingling. Had GP appointment after work and has been sent to hospital for scan of head and bloods. She should have had other bloods done when she had her B12 and folate done but GP didn’t put them on the list, ie Vitamin D levels, ferritin, thyroid function tests, glucose. She phoned us this morning very upset and worried. Told her it was probably the body’s reaction to the medication and that it might get worse before it gets better. My husband and I live in the Western Isles and she’s in Glasgow so we can’t exactly jump on a bus and be there at the moment. Hoping you have some words of wisdom for me and sorry again for annoying you. Thanks

      I had to rush to the hospital last week due to anaphylactic shock from taking a dose of an antibiotic. Received EpiPen, steroids, antihistamines, zofran (all injected/IV). When I woke up the next day, ALL of the rashes I've had that started since going gluten free were cleared up. EVEN THE dermatitis herpetiformis was gone. Has anyone else experienced this or happen to know why that would happen? The meds they gave me were all meds that I've taken to try to resolve the rashes, but they never worked in pill form. I'm wondering if it the addition of the epi that helped, it if injected steroids and antihistamines were what did the job.

      Exactly! Negative genetics can rule out celiac disease with close to 100% certainty. It takes tTg antibody testing and biopsy confirm the diagnosis in a genetically susceptible individual.

      What Dr. Gunn states is essentially true. It is a rule out measure. But be aware that to possess either of the two primary genes that have been identified with celiac disease (or both) doesn't necessarily mean that you have or will develop celiac disease. Almost 40% of the general population carries one or both but only about 1% of the general population will develop active celiac disease. It remains latent until triggered by some stress event which may or may not occur. So, there is a genetic component to celiac disease but there is also an epigenetic component. 
    • Dr. Gunn
      Have you had celiac genetic risk testing? A celiac genetic test is accurate with or without gluten in your diet. If you don't carry the celiac risk genes you can effectively rule out celiac disease for life.
