PS Cake for a Multi allergy Kid

[Naijay]

Hello Everyone!
I have an eleven month old who is allergic to peanuts, milk, eggs and wheat. I dont what I am going to do about his birthday cake next month. My questions is does anyone know of a bakery thay specializes in allergen free cakes in the Seattle area or delivers to the Seattle Area. I also welcome receipes.

YESS!! Well...I am in NJ and there is a bakery in Millburn, NJ that is exactly what you are looking for and as of September 1 she is taking orders. I just saw this on ABC news yesterday, they did a special feature on her. I would double check on all the allergies, but she is def nut free, I know that doesn't help, but I thought I heard that it was organic and more....

I JUST READ ON....they do use eggs and milk. It looks like she has special orders for gluten free things

hmm... does it have to be a cake? those are some pretty crucial cake ingredients there....


My niece is allergic to eggs and dairy and peanuts and she always has a spice cake on her birthday. She''s not allergic to wheat though. I suppose you could make a cake with rice flour or quinoa flour or something similar, but I doubt an 11 month old would be into a spice cake. Maybe a pudding or something with rice milk? or cool whip? Good luck to you!

Yes I seen it to Golden, unfortunately she doesn''t deliever past NJ, NY and Phili. I''m in NY now but only for 2 more weeks and we''re relocating permantely to Seattle. I was thinking of having his grandmother send it but im afraid it will get messed up through delivery. MArking a box fragile means nothing these days..smh

I can''t eat wheat but I know in the healthfood section you can buy gluten free cake mix (you need to check the other allergies) and egg replacer and you can use alternate milk.

I know that orgran does some fantastic special mixes and products that are egg, nut, milk, wheat free.

Try a healthfood store, the cake mixes I have tried are yum they taste like real cake

Wacky Cake is excellent and has no nuts dairy or eggs. You can google the recipe for example, http://southernfood.about.com/od/chocolatecakes/r/bl01018c.htm
I have made Wacky Cake multiple times and it tastes great! I don''t know about wheat allergy though - is this in regular flour? If so maybe you can substitute an appropriate flour. There is a book called Help! My child is allergic to everything! cookbook, which may have some ideas for you!

"Wheatless in Seattle" in Greenwood, sells gluten free foods. Not sure if they have eggs/dairy, but you can call and see.

Central Market (in Shoreline & Mill Creek) sells gluten, egg, and milk free deserts. Some are very expensive. A muffin is about $4 and the cakes they sell are small.

Also, check Whole Foods and see what they offer.

Hi, no advice on the cake issue, but just wanted to tell you, in case it''s encouraging, that I was allergic to EVERYTHING as a baby too (except peanuts... which is a special case) and by the time I was 5 or 6, all the allergies were gone. I can eat anything now. No allergies at all.

I gather the peanut allergy won''t ever go away, but the other ones might! So here''s to your kid''s the 10th (or earlier) birthday cake being a cakey cake!

Just thought that might be encouraging.

Unfortunately his allergies are too sensitive, I found out he was allergic through my breast milk, he''s never eaten any of these things directly. I took him to an allergist to confirm after 2 reactions

[Naijay]

Thanks Deelight, I will look into that
