Can you use Rice? Coconut Flour is great but it tends to be very dense. So I try to only use 1/4 coconut flour for the total flour amount.

I usually do a mix -- Rice flour, Amaranth flour, Quinoa Flour, and Coconut flour.

Sorghum, tapioca (use only 1/4), millet, oat, buckwheat are all great flours as well A mix of 3 or more is usually better.

My family is gluten free, oat free, corn free, potato free. So baking can be interesting

I will post photos! But not sure how pretty it will be LOL I'm thinking of actually making a small 6 inch birthday cake for both of them to share. Will see what I come up with.


This is another REALLY GOOD birthday cupcake recipe. Again I always cut the sugar in half (we aren't a big sweet-sweet family).

1 cup white rice flour
1/3 cup tapioca
3 tablespoons ground flax seed
1/2 teaspoon ground chia seed
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup cocoa powder - FOR DOGS use CAROB powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
2 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 tablespoon vinegar (any variety will do)
5 tablespoons canola oil or coconut oil
1-1/4 cup cold water
1/2 tsp cinnamon (optional)

These are really fluffy and always a hit. My family who is not "special diet" LOL ... they love these cupcakes. My nephews gobbled up 1 each last night for my mom's birthday.

Here they are fresh out of the oven!

I made mini-cupcakes for Gus and Grace.... I haven't decided on frosting yet. I may just drizzle them with some left over strawberry puree.



They are very yummy and smell great
