Journal Zeriel's Journal: Ask a subset of slashdot: Celiac-safe cakes? 9
MrsZer's mother's birthday is coming up.
She hasn't had a real birthday cake in years, because she has very severe celiac disease.
I am an excellent baker. I want to make her a cake anyway.
Does such a thing as a good celiac-safe cake recipe exist?
I figure some of you have firsthand experience with this kind of thing, so I'm asking here for recipes you've tried, before I go randomly hunting on google.

its great great stuff. you can find it usually at a whole foods or a wild oats... possibly trader joes.
you should also be able to order it online.
hope this helps

That having been said, you are my hero. I have been looking EVERYWHERE for the Pamela's stuff, and I was afraid I'd have to order it online and pay for express etc.
I will be sure to let you know how she likes it.
