I have amateur cake skills. I bake, I frost, I decorate.....you know, sprinkles and things stuck on top. But if you need a nice cake for wedding or graduation it might require a bakery and lots of cash! I discovered heaven in a box in the freezer at my favorite Basha's store. Gillian's chocolate and vanilla cakes with smooth frosting layer. Keep a long time in the freezer. Taste amazing, rich, moist, like real cake! You know what I mean. Add a few real or artificial flowers, buy some lovely frosting flowers from the bakery and there you go! I spent $50 for a cake of equal size for my sons graduation. It was wonderful but...... This is a more traditional cake. Gillian's Gluten Free Foods

Unlike other diseases where there are medications and !any unknowns, with Celiuac disease there are no meds, and the cause is known. In other words, there is no mystery. So why then, do some continue to suffer. Let's discuss! 1. Compliance - not eating gluten, period, the end. I find many are challenged to give up foods or deal with the emotions off a child who does not want to stick it out. BUT, I dont know anyone that would not give it all up to save the life of a loved one. Guess what, if you give up gluten you WlLL save the life of a loved one. Untreated (still eating gluten) damage and eventual death will result. How quickly depends on how quickly your body looses the battle. 2. Planning - leaving the house unprepared, no backup plan or Plan B. Gotta have it! If you were allergic to bee stings, you would carry that little needle filled with your miracle drug. Same goes here.

 The great news is that there are some really GOOD gluten free options for those of you missing that sweet, warm, toaster treat we used to call breakfast. SOOO glad to find these.

Thank you to these companies for providing JOY and satisfaction reliving childhood memories.

I enjoy  Celiac.com a fantastic resource for Celiac disease as well as tons of Gluten Free and Allergen Free cooking. It includes information for conferences, new products, recipes, journals and more. I found this article very interesting. We often think of various health conditions to be limited to our country or populations. A higher than expected trend was observed in India, more evidence to support we are NOT alone in learning how to change our diet to recover our health!!
