I didn't see this posted anywhere. As I think everyone knows, Betty Crocker is putting out some gluten-free baking mixes this June. I was reading Open Original Shared Link and found this:

This is really neat! Thanks for posting it :)

I have been wanting to make a cake or cupcakes but just didn't want to deal with making my own frosting. This is really nice that Betty Crocker is taking the wheel on making gluten free products available in the "normal" type of food products. This will be neat for those of us who live in smaller towns and have a harder time finding gluten free foods.

i think betty crocker frostings are all gluten free "as is" currently... read the label... if it doesn't say wheat, barley, rye or oats then it's gluten free. that is their policy :-)

happy frosting...

Just be REALLY careful making the assumptions that you're making. True, the ingredient lists of some foods don't SHOW gluten, such as the Duncan Hines brand of frosting, but DH won't call their frostings gluten-free any longer because they might be made on equipment that processes other gluten-containing products...i.e. cross-contamination. If in doubt, it's always best to directly contact a company about the gluten-free status of their products.

does anyone know the status for Betty Crockers frostings? I know the ingredient list is self explanitory, but the whole CC is what I'm wondering because som of thier other frostings have wheat in them.

I was in the store tonight looking at the ingredients, gluten or no gluten, based on the LOOONG ingredient list of CRAP, I decided just to buy some powdered sugar and make my own!!!! I just dont like the idea of all those chemicals and whatever else going into my body, gluten or not.

      3 years with Celiac, now I appear fine.

      @Sharke, The updated guidelines for a gluten challenge are to eat ten grams of gluten per day for two weeks minimum.  Lesser amounts of gluten (3 grams) don't provoke an immune response strong enough that the antibodies leave the gastrointestinal tract and get into the blood where they can be measured in tTg blood tests.   Have no doubt that the antibodies made in the small intestine are doing damage there, even if you don't suffer severe symptoms, yet. Did you react to barley prior to going gluten free? Have you been checked for chronic autoimmune gastritis which is another autoimmune disease that sometimes occurs with Celiac Disease? Have you been checked for nutritional deficiencies?  Thiamine deficiency (Gastrointestinal Beriberi) can cause constipation and/or diarrhea, abdominal pain, and weight loss.   Thiamine Deficiency Disorders https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8451766/

      Family education

      @sillyyak52, Count another one in the same boat!  My family has always been in denial.  They said my tummy aches were a ploy to miss school.  My parents passed from health problems associated with uncontrolled Celiac Disease (Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm and Glioblastoma brain tumor).  My sister still has her head buried in the sand.   I agree with @Rogol72, try the consequences of untreated celiac disease shock treatment.  Sometimes people are just scared of having to change their comfortable lifestyle.

      Can food allergies like milk and soy flatten villi?

      By Lotte18 · Posted

      I have never been tested for tTg 6 antibodies but I will certainly do that next time I'm at the doc's.  Maybe there's a home test kit for that?  I drink lactose free milk and seem to be ok so I'm probably not a casein case but...who knows?!

      Gluten Ataxia and Malabsorption

      By knitty kitty · Posted

      I take Life Extension brand Mega Benfotiamine, (250 mg with each of two meals) and Maxlife Natural TTFD-B1 Max Thiamine (100 mg).   I try to take my Benfotiamine and TTFD before four pm, otherwise I have so much energy, it can be hard to fall asleep.

      Some people react to the Casein in dairy the same as to gluten, like me.  I avoid dairy avidly because I get ataxia so bad. Some Celiac people produce tTg 6 antibodies in response to gluten or casein.  tTg 2 antibodies are what blood tests for Celiac measure.  tTg 6 antibodies are also found in Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases, contributing to ataxia.  Have you been checked for tTg 6 antibodies?   P. S.  Can you share your B vitamin test results?
