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

      Wow! You're pretty young to have a diagnosis of SMA syndrome. But youth also has its advantages when it comes to healing, without a doubt. You might be surprised to find out how your health improves and how much better you feel once you eliminate gluten from your diet. Celiac disease is an autoimmune disorder that, when gluten is consumed, triggers an attack on the villous lining of the small bowel. This is the section of the intestines where all our nutrition is absorbed. It is made up of billions of tiny finger-like projections that create a tremendous surface area for absorbing nutrients. For the person with celiac disease, unchecked gluten consumption generates inflammation that wears down these fingers and, over time, greatly reduces the nutrient absorbing efficiency of the small bowel lining. This can generate a whole host of other nutrient deficiency related medical problems. We also now know that the autoimmune reaction to gluten is not necessarily limited to the lining of the small bowel such that celiac disease can damage other body systems and organs such as the liver and the joints and cause neurological problems.  It can take around two years for the villous lining to completely heal but most people start feeling better well before then. It's also important to realize that celiac disease can cause intolerance to some other foods whose protein structures are similar to gluten. Chief among them are dairy and oats but also eggs, corn and soy. Just keep that in mind.

      I was just diagnosed at 26 after accidental finding. Any simple tips for newbies? Things a non celiac would never think of? I already went through my prescriptions and identified some medications that have gluten. Is there a beginners guide? Celiac for dummies?

      Would it be rude to ask your age?

      Wow! Thank you @trents I  really appreciate the responses. This line of diagnosis has me questioning a lot of symptoms over the course of my life. Very validating and very much a bummer at the same time.
