I need to bake a cake for hubby's birthday next week. I am looking for the best box cake (have no desire to make a homemade cake). I could do chocolate or a yellow cake mix. Let me know what you like or which ones were gross so I can avoid them.

Thanks Hez

For my son's birthday I got a gluten-free Ice Cream cake from Baskin Robins' Was a HUGE success. I had ot call in a day or 2 before I wanted it, explain to them exactly what I need done (ALL Ice cream, no cake, no cookies, etc) and etc, but they were happy to do it.

The Gluten Free Pantry has some great baking mixes. I think there is a chocolate mix and a vanilla. I've had both and they're not too bad.

I am a fan of 'cause your special gluten-free mixes too. Made my hubby a cake with them last month and it turned out great: Open Original Shared Link

There are lots of brands out there--you might not have time to order via mail, so maybe some of these others brands will be in a local store: Namaste, gluten-free Pantry, 123 Gluten Free, Authentic Foods, Dietary Specialities, Dowd & Rogers... I use Duncan Hines Homestyle frosting.

I LOVE Dietary Specialties... when I bake a box, I have to be careful or I will eat the whole thing!!! :ph34r: It is THAT good! Very moist and yummy!! I love the chocolate or white. They also make yummy banana bread, apple bread and pancakes. :) Can you tell I love this brand??!!?? :) Hope your hubby has a great b-day!!

That sounds awesome!!! I will have to look into that for my daughters birthday. How was the staff? When you requested an ice cream cake with no cake in it? Do you think they thought you were from mars or something :huh:

And another strange question : Did the shape of the cake hold up, or did it turn into one big ice cream blob? Just curious, I was thinking it would be pretty easy to make one of our own, by using one of those new rubber (silicone) molds that they make now. Filling it up with somewhat melted ice cream, then refreezing it. Just a thought ;) Thankfully I still have till December till I have to attempt my daughters first gluten free birthday party.

My local grocery store bakery also makes ice cream cakes. They are becoming more and more popular. My family bought me one for Mother's Day 2 years ago. It was truly awesome!! SO yummy!! It was 1/2 vanilla, 1/2 chocolate with snikers chunks everywhere. YUM!! So, check your local bakery too ~ chances are they can help you as well. :)

      How long after being diagnosed with Celiac do you feel better?

      By jnstefan · Posted

      My 10 year old daughter was diagnosed with Celiac 2 weeks ago. We've been on gluten free diet now for 2 weeks. She still experiences abdominal pain at times , and is struggling with fatigue. What is everyone's experience with how long it takes for the body to heal and stabilize after starting the gluten free diet? Thanks for any feedback!

      thank you for the insight  Thank a small elevation can be due to this or is it more likely to be cross contamination ?

      HEY HB333!! Did you ever find out what you had???  I’ve been having those same things for 10 months almost a year now!! but I’ve also been in extreme agonizing hell!!  With those bumps, I’ve become itchy everywhere to the point we’re not be able to do anything but itch and cry for hours!! they have gotten so bad they’re all over my body head to toe. I have stuff coming off my scalp and stuff coming out of my ears and all my nails are brittle and breaking and I’ve got stuff under my nails and it’s even in my nose and my eyebrows, and I don’t know what to do!!!   But I’m having those little bumps just like you and white stuff around them and then my hair follicles have white stuff on them and my skin is breaking open and leaking white stuff and my dermatologist in the ER won’t help and I don’t know what to do!!! nobody knows what it is!! I really need help!! did you ever figure out what it was???

      Blood Tests showed positive for celiac / Endoscopy confirmed no evidence of Celiac

      "Similar proteins to the gliadin found in wheat exist as secalin in rye, hordein in barley, and avenins in oats, and are collectively referred to as 'gluten'. The gluten found in all of these grains has been identified as the component capable of triggering the immune-mediated disorder, celiac disease." https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28244676/   "However, it is necessary to consider that oats include many varieties, containing various amino acid sequences and showing different immunoreactivities associated with toxic prolamins. As a result, several studies have shown that the immunogenicity of oats varies depending on the cultivar consumed." https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/26557006/   "In 2007, a study showed that all the varieties of oats tested were immunogenic, with Lampton and Ava avenins inducing lymphocyte activation similar to that activated by wheat gliadin, while Astra and Nave avenins showed less immunogenicity, but still with a measurable effect.6 In 2011, a study showed that there is a wide range of variation of potential immunotoxicity of oat cultivars. It concluded some oat strains are more toxic than others." https://glutenfreeworks.com/blog/2011/06/20/why-oats-should-be-excluded-from-the-gluten-free-diet/   Silano M, Benedetto RD, Maialetti F, et al. Avenins from different cultivars of oats elicit response by coeliac peripheral lymphocytes. Scand J Gastroenterol 2007 Jun 8;:1-4 Comino I, Real A, Lorenzo L, et al.
