How to Avoid Cross-Contamination with Gluten-free Baking for Celiac Disease

- Tag your friend with Celiac disease so they can share this post. Let’s raise awareness about avoiding gluten cross-contamination!
Celiac disease is an autoimmune disease which is triggered by ingesting gluten. Gluten is a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye.
As little as an 1/8th of a teaspoon of flour contains enough gluten to trigger the autoimmune response in someone with Celiac disease.
When that happens, the body (incorrectly) attacks its own cells - which causes damage to the small intestine and a whole slew of awful symptoms. Not to mention the overall inflammation that occurs in the body!
When your friend with Celiac disease asks if something is gluten-free, please understand how serious this is.
To make a gluten-free dish, follow these guidelines:
✔️ Check with your Celiac friend about what to do to avoid gluten
✔️ Double-check ingredients for hidden sources of gluten
✔️ Thoroughly wash pots, pans, utensils, and cutting boards
✔️ Don’t use wooden spoons or cutting boards
✔️ Avoid cooking anything with flour at the same time as your gluten-free baking
✔️ Buy a gluten-free dish instead of making it if cross-contamination is difficult to avoid
These tips are helpful for other allergies and sensitivities as well. The best thing to do is to talk directly to the person who manages their food intolerances so you can follow what works for them!
Also, please know how much it means to your loved one that you would go out of your way to make sure they feel included in your celebration. Food is more than just nutrients - it’s also about connection with people you love. ❤️

All that effort to make your friend feel seen, heard and empathized with is priceless.
Seriously, this honestly makes me tear up. If someone did that for me I would sob. I don't think I know anyone willing to go through the effort though. My fam and friends love me, but they are all just trying to deal with their own stuff.
Sending hugs
As someone who’s been on the receiving end of that effort I can confirm it’s one of the nicest things you can ever get. Knowing that someone truly cares and respects your needs and that they’re willing to put the work in to make sure you feel safe is the best gift you could possibly get ❤❤❤
Totally worth it!
Others are it our mommy and daddy nor shrinks to validate you for every single thing. She did a nice gesture. It should have stopped there.
My grandmother has a separate drawer, separate utensils, and a separate cupboard of ingredients for gluten-free baking. None of our family are gluten-free, but she has ONE friend that she likes to bake for, and I think that's absolutely the kindest thing.
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Your grama is lovely..🥰
This is kind of remniscent of how my house has a kosher kitchen, where the meat and milk are kept separate, have separate sinks, dishes, utensils, refrigerators, etc
ops
@@cheffailureyup! Also grew up this way because of kosher and this really puts into perspective just how hard we try just to eat every day. But in a way it sort of makes me appreciate it more: how hard we work for our food.
❤❤❤❤ that's amazing 🥰🥰
i had no idea that gluten free was this intense until my mother in law found out she had celiacs and had to get all new dishes, pots n pans, containers, etc. i wasn’t aware that cross contamination was this much of an issue but ill definitely keep that in mind if i decide to make her something. thanks!!! im genuinely so glad i came across this
My high school banned peanut butter because we had someone die because someone next to her was eating it. Allergies are no joke.
@@Marika50 it really is not a joke. They had to rush me to the ER because I could smell the cooked crabs and lobsters and the grilled squid my aunt made that she stored at the back of our van when we were going to the beach. I was seating next to the driver's seat and it was a very big and long van. I had an intense allergic reaction just 2 minutes in "contact" with the smell.
it's nearly killed my mother several times through cross contamination alone!
@@Marika50my brother's peanut allergy is airborne too, he couldn't even be in the same room as an open, untouched jar.
@haldouglas4773 did you know people can outgrow peanut allergy sometimes. I did. Now, I am not saying it happens for everyone, but about 2 years ago I was having some tests done because I was having skin issues and they ran allergy panel and I was no longer allergic to peanuts. It's crazy because in the past I went to anephalictic shock
What a husband educating that person for like 2 hours and what a great person sitting through all of it and paying attention
Yeah something fishy about that friend with the husband
I was most impressed by the husband, who turned out to have been paying enough attention to relay all these details to the friend!
@@OrigamiMarieI find it a bit sad that it is considered more impressive that a husband is able to listen vs a friend who really went out of their way. That being said it is pressive on both of their parts, that he was able to give then info so clearly that the friend was able to make a cake that op could eat without fear. They both sound like good people, and I'd feel super safe around those two people.
I had a friend in college with an anaphylactic allergy to eggs. Eggs are in everything. I quickly learned how to adapt some of my family’s recipes to be completely egg free, and we would do these same steps (double wash everything, make sure not to use anything that could cross contaminate, etc)
When I brought in a full egg free vanilla cake complete with decorations and piping, hearing her say “I could have a wedding cake someday!” is something that’s stuck with me even almost 8 years later.
My son has an anaphylactic allergy to eggs too. It's very hard! But once you figure it out, it becomes much more doable. He was 1 when we found out. so the hardest part was teaching him not to eat anything without asking us first! He's 5 now and is very good about it.😁
That’s beautiful ❤ What seems a small gesture to one person can be hope for another.
My mum isn't allergic to eggs but really just can't stand the smell and taste of eggs in any baked good so I learnt how to make egg less version of almost everything! A lot of Indian bakers are like my mum so I found that you can order cakes from them and they'd be so egg free that often eggs don't make it into their house...
Some people have no empathy and will force food. I have always had a messed up digestive system and general IBS. When i finally became an adult andnhad access to health insurance i started seeing a gastroenterologist. They started by putting me on elimination diets. It was horrible that people would try to undermine it all the time. For 1 month i was on no gluten, then no red meat/animal protien, no fat, no this/that. My iwn family would dump my plate full of the thing i wasnt supposed to eat even when there were plenty of options or purposely add butter to the mashed potatoes i made with no animal fat or not fat at all.
They'd be so nasty when i explained i am following doctor's orders and undoing the periodic diet would be throwing my money and health away. In the end it turned out to be my gall bladder which still isnt bad enough to remove. So i am stuck with some days just not being able to handle fried foods or certain spices even though i love all food.
I also dont talk to my family anymore because of their behavior toward my health and lack of respect of anyone really, even themselves, not just me.
As someone who is allergic to eggs, I wish someone would do this for me! Whole Foods stopped selling their vegan cake, and that was the only way I could enjoy a slice of cake when I wanted to 😢
My partner has celiacs so it’s wonderful this channel exists. They live on their own and they have their own kitchen.
if she lives on her own of course she has her own kitchen :D
@4xcleo you can say that but pre covid I looked at a place with my fiance and it did not come with a kitchen 😅
@@brookewilson1950 wtf ahahahah which country?
Holy crap. I may love my friend but I'd have to just buy you a gluten free cake.
@PainfulJess That's a great option, too!
thats certainly a kinder option than just leaving a person out of getting a birthday treat.
I mean either way it should be the thought that counts. U still went out of ur way to get them a special gluten free cake when I didn't have to n could have gotten them nothing. Anything is better then nothing. Even if it's just a single cupcake with a candle on it at least u triedm
I know people with life treating food allergies with very serious symptoms even from trace amounts and I would never volunteer to make them food. Not because they aren't worth the effort or something, but because I don't feel competent to do that. They could literally die if I messed up something. I don't trust myself with their life in this matter. I'll buy them something premade that they have indicated is safe and tasty for them to consume or just buy something that is not food. It's not a very good birthday gift if someone gets hurt.
And there might be a situation where the person you made the cake for isn't totally comfortable trusting that you did everything correctly, but they also feel like saying no would be ungrateful and rude.
@@SininenMeriyou sound like a good and thoughtful friend. That's the part that matters. 🙂
I had a friend bake me a cake for my 18th birthday. I don’t have celiac, but I do have a lot of food allergies (many of which require the steps taken in this video). I cried when she gave it to me, by far the most thoughtful and amazing gift anyone has given me! Plus it tasted amazing
The "I know" and incredible effort to understand what it takes to eat have me chills. It really *does* , in fact, mean a lot.
I have two friends who have celiac disease and neither of them are this sensitive. They wont eat the food if it has any flour, but they never worry about cross contamination like this.
@@SorbusAucubaria people can have different levels of coeliac disease, so some people have to be more careful than others.
Dad was highly allergic to tomatoes. We wked REALLY hard not to contaminate ANYTHING he could come in contact with. It can be difficult but, it’s important. Bc hurting or killing a loved one is so much worse!
It gave me chills in my front-bottom.
Some people can eat dairy but not to much, some people can't eat dairy, and some people will go into shock if they touch it.
As a person with celiac disease, I can say that this kind of thing means the world to me. When somebody puts in the extra effort to learn how to avoid cross contamination, it’s amazing.
Excuse me, if this is disrespectful but what is celiac disease
@@liliumbeautyit’s a belly ache 😂😂
@@lisawarnick4831Nope! Not just that. It inflames and damages the small intestine lining.
@@liliumbeautyHere! From google ; An immune reaction to eating gluten, a protein found in wheat, barley, and rye.
Over time, the immune reaction to eating gluten creates inflammation that damages the small intestine's lining, leading to medical complications. It also prevents absorption of some nutrients
@@liliumbeautyVery similar to gluten allergy (I think it is actually, just another name for it iirc but i could be wrong)
I was not aware of cross contamination with utensils/bakeware/ingredients. This is such an eye-opener and proves why those with Celiac disease aren't "picky" but just eant to live. Thank you for sharing such an informative video! Your explanations are wonderful!💖
I've heard that some people are sensitive to the point that using an oven that's previously baked bread could cause enough cross contamination for a reaction. It's truly, fully wild.
@@deathXbyXlightThat's my mother unfortunately. I wish we could accept stuff like this, but it just breaks our hearts to watch people go through efforts only for us to have to give it to a neighbor or throw it away
@@deathXbyXlight It's true. Our house oven is dedicated gluten free. If hubby wants something gluten he has to use our guest house to cook or bake.
Having been gluten free for 7 years now we find even dogs eating wheat will make us sick. So it isn't uncommon for that stuff to happen.
I'm so glad this was helpful ❤
My mom is severely allergic to eggs. Our family doesn’t treat her the best (oldest daughter). She’s the black sheep of the family and I don’t talk to them anymore because of it. Anyway, she recently went to stay with her best friends parents in Cali for her friends baby shower. She woke up one morning and her BF’s dad woke up early and made egg-free pancake batter and cooked it first for her before making everyone else’s pancakes. When she got home and told me this she was crying, and I teared up bc I’ve always wanted my mom to be treated like that. She deserves that and so much more. Our family would’ve griped and made her feel like a burden for “ruining” everyone else’s meal or pancakes or “making it about herself”. I love my family but I will never forgive them for how they’ve hurt and broken my mother’s heart over and over again. Now, I don’t eat eggs and don’t put it in any of my cooking bc I don’t like them, and I’d rather share a meal with my mom than make her eat alone or feel like a burden.
You are a lovely daughter ❤
You're amazing for that❤
Thank God she has you.
She is lucky to have you as a daughter! 💕 I feel like in life, finding your friends and chosen family is like collecting seashells. It’s a 50/50 chance visiting the beach you’ll find some good shells. So when you do, you pick it up to bring home. But there will be many visits where we don’t find any shells. And even worse, there’s always litter you have to avoid! 😅 (omg, that was like a never ending metaphor! It kept growing as I was typing and wouldn’t stop! 😂)
I had a regular allergic to eggs. For her breakfast special, we knew to scrape the grill, put the eggs separate in the to go box (her husband would eat them) and it was no issue. We used sealed plastic cutlery for carryout. I know that us giving a damn made her a regular. I don't work there anymore but I miss you, Joy!
The video made it crystal clear that I should never bake an allergy free cake for anyone. I really appreciate the heads up because I would never have guessed that about wooden spoons, not about the double washing. I will absolutely purchase my allergen free gifts from safe vendors. There are too many cooks in my kitchen to make home cooking to this exactitude a possibility for me. But bless every single one of you that can. Everyone deserves home cooked once in a while.
it’s not really true for everyone. For example a dear friend of mine would eat gluten free food cooked by other people with no problem
@@eppendorf6306 - I imagine you are right. I suppose I really meant I will no longer assume that just following an allergy recipe is enough. Im a foodie love to cook, and bake, but just as I do not have the time or money to support a kosher kitchen, I can’t pull off an allergen free kitchen to this level. I am not going to mess around with treats if the chance of my accidentally poisoning a friend is so high.
You can definitely just verify with said person about their allergies. Some people can't even smell their allergen without having a reaction, and other people can eat their allergen as long as it's cooked a certain way.
Just make sure its no gluten.. its hard to Get all the gluten of the wooden spoon. You dont have to put it in the dishwasher, just make sure its well ckeaned.. I have Celiac to. Buy new ingredients and Wash everything before you use it ☺️
💜
As someone who has struggled with people not understanding my needs for gluten free this would melt my heart
It means so much
My house has gone gluten-free because of my allergy. It helps that I am the cook.

How is that funny? @@blackweb.

When I was in nursing school a colleague of mine had a gluten allergy.
One day I brought homemade pizza for the whole class and baked a small one just for her (making sure to check everything and not cross contaminating) and she almost cried when she saw that little pie just for her. Such little effort can make a person's whole day
That’s so sweet!
I used to work with a woman who brought donuts to work every Friday. My coworkers and boss were always forgetting that I couldn't eat gluten and were either always forgetting me or always inviting me to grab sandwiches or cake in the break room. One day this coworker set the donut box down and then handed me a prewrapped GF pastry she got at the coffee shop downstairs that came from a specialty bakery downtown. It made me so happy that she actually thought of me! Of course, she only did that once, and promptly forgot me again, but it was a tiny ray of sunshine.
Is it really this serious though: they can even tolerate some residual flour!??
Genuine question cause idk
@@ellaova it depends on the person, I cleand everything and made sure not to cross contaminate the oven and my colleague told me that a different pan with gluten free ingredients was enough but she still thanked me for going through all the steps just to be on the safe side. The person in this video is very sensitive and needs more steps to not be sick
That’s so sweet a lot of ppl wouldn’t even think to do that or even care when I use to babysit the little girl was told she had a gluten allergy and her mom went to the store to get some things seen it was a little more money and said it’s a scam! She wouldn’t buy it so me and my man went shopping for her got her a few things and she was able to eat that but it’s just crazy how selfish some ppl are
I have a friend with celiac and she was so happy when I baked a cake for her. It is about twenty years ago. It was not so easy to find a recipe or the right ingredients. Today you can find those in every discounter. But it was worth the effort, she was so happy and thankful.
My Dad has celiac and I’ve been raised in a gluten free household. When I try to explain to people how severe it is, and how careful you have to be they don’t believe me, because “my [family member] is gluten intolerant. The difference between the two is huge and everybody always says they know how to be safe, but they don’t. They know how to keep a gluten intolerant person safe, not someone with celiac disease. Thank you SO much for bringing this to people’s attention!
As someone who has a minor gluten issue, there is almost no comparison. I have a cousin and a coworker with celiac. My coworker actually has a service dog to sniff for gluten and make sure she’s safe. Meanwhile, I’m upset in the bathroom for a couple days if I end up with too much of something I shouldn’t have. People are starting to be a lot more understanding, but growing up, I was always told I was just being overly dramatic. It has taken me years to get used to even gluten free bread and pasta because the taste and texture remind me too much of being sick as a kid.
@@PartiBunniI am lucky to have 2 ovens and one is gluten free. I have a gluten free cooking & serving equipment cabinet away from gluten for cooking for my daughter in law.
It can literally be the difference between life and death.
I have a question, if someone with celiac disease touches gluten then is that dangerous or is it only dangerous when ingested?
@@PartiBunnias someone who works in restaurants, yes, theres a huge difference mate.
As someone who struggles to cook on a normal basis... I couldn't imagine having to do this for myself let alone a friend. Major props to anybody who goes through all that for their friends they're a real one
i think if you're doing it for yourself you probably just wouldn't have anything with gluten in the house in the first place so the cooking itself would be pretty normal. this is more for people cooking from a non gluten free kitchen.
Gluton free stuff is very expensive and limiting and very bland. If you aren't living alone, then there is probably still gluton in the house you have to avoid.
@@jadedawes2556 gluten free stuff isnt expensive or bland. fruits, vegetables, yoghurts, ice cream etc are gluten free.
@@okami7amaterasu Okay, and you expect someone to live on a diet of just that? No, to just find food is very hard in general, I know because my sister has not long been diagnosed and I've tried a lot of the gluten-free stuff with her, it's very bland. A lot of things unnecessarily use gluten and a lot of stuff that don't, are contaminated. There really is not much choice for things to buy and gluten-free food is marked up because of the fad diet of going gluten-free, so it's not viewed as such a dangerous thing, people assume it's a crazy health fad. So yeah, very expensive. We've had to change her whole died and now spend way more than we used to on food for her. Not everyone has time or equipment to cook at home from scratch. Even if everyone did, that would still be incredibly expensive...
@@okami7amaterasu And for a start, gluten-free ice cream is more expensive than other ice creams. Plus there are way fewer options for flavours too.
as someone who really enjoys cooking for others, this is a pure act of love💞
My sister bought an oven, just for my mom to bake her bread, cake and cookies when she got diagnosed on older age.
food is instrumental to love
@@lienbijs1205ooooh that’s so sweet 😊

When I was a chef at a cafe, I used to make all the staff lunches and a few people on our team had severe food sensitivities (no gluten, dairy, or eggs, or all 3). Hearing them talk about how great it was to not experience food anxiety and actually be able to enjoy their meals at work warmed my heart. No one should feel afraid of their food accommodation request being interrogated, or not taken seriously.
Please would you share some of your favourite dairy free lunches with me?
@LornaBaker-cw7qx I know it's kinda plain, but I like to make my mom this spring salad with strawberries and a honey lemon vinegarette. She's lactose intolerant, so I always try to keep that in mind when I cook for her. For hot dishes, I like to make Asian food. A lot of their population is lactose intolerant and they didn't have access to dairy when a lot of the dishes were developed, so you can find a good verity of dairy free foods.
It’s nice to see someone calmly answering questions instead of getting all defensive.
But … it’s the same person 😭😭
For me it is nice to actually learn to ask those questions before blindly rejecting or accepting
It’s not real mate
@@formant84 i know. But it is about roleplaying the situation. Not many People handle their celiac disease like that.
I have celiac and have been gluten free for over 15 years... I don't ask ppl questions like this and I would never respond like this bc I'm not a toddler. 😂 ppl get annoyed bc you're questioning them and their intentions after they worked hard at making them something they didn't have to make you.
As a person with celiac disease, You've earned my respect 👍
SAMEEE
Same
Ditto!
I did this for my friend's husband who can't have any gluten whatsoever. It was one of the most stressful things. I kept waiting to hear that I got him sick, but he loved the food!
How kind of you! ❤
Gosh this makes me feel a little bit bittersweet. I’d love to have such a caring friend.
same
As I have celiac disease myself, if a person does this, it's truly heartwarming. My best friend takes a lot of baked sweets with her to school, but only gluten free. In her house they also have a separate drawer with only gluten free stuff and have a lot of gluten free bread so I can always stay over and lunch there. Their also always clean their entire kitchen when I come over. I really appreciate all the effort they go trough for me. If she reads this, I love you ❤
What a kind friend you have ❤❤
Out of curiosity, as a person who actually has a medical condition that necessitates avoiding gluten, does it bother you at all the way so many people are now “gluten-free” who are only jumping on some fad diet bandwagon? Or do you just think, oh well, they’re being silly but at least it means there are products for me in the supermarket now? I wonder if the available products will dwindle back to nothing once it’s not fashionable to be “gluten-free” again, probably.
@@llddau I don't gatekeep my medical conditions, there's no point to it really. Getting upset will change nothing and raised awareness just means things are far better labelled which I greatly appreciate and that at least for now so much more is available. Some will remain regardless of popularity too, it used to be a lot more difficult to find labeled recipes I didn't have to adapt myself if I wanted a version I could eat safely and now there's much more options. Enjoy what is for now and contribute knowledge while more people are listening and do acknowledge that there are different degrees as well. Some people get bloating and upset stomachs, gluten free improves their quality of life and health even if their symptoms are so much less severe than some of us. If a restaurant asks "diet or allergy?" to my request for gluten free, I appreciate greatly that they will inform me before hand instead of haphazardly trying and I still end up sick. I want to know because some cuisine adds wheat to everything. I
My friend is allergic to everything and she doesn’t bother asking anymore, I know what she can’t eat and she knows I would never risk it! I love hosting and I always make sure to tell her everything I made that is safe for her. After being really close with someone it’s easy to remeber these details when it’s so important to their health
Did it take some time to "dare" to do it or was it an immediate thing for you? Because when I watched this video, my first thought was "fuck no, I'd never do this". Not because of the extra effort, I don't mind that, but the chances that I did something wrong anyway are too high, just as the stakes. So I don't think I would dare to take on so much responsibility for another person's health.
@@mimiharvsame like someone else could possibly die due to a small little freckle that i missed nope i don't want that kind of responsibility
Omg i love you❤
Im allergic to everything too. So i know how much your gest means😊
@@mimiharv I would ask her all the time in the beginning but after a while I could be confident about it. I never cooked things that cross contaminated, it would only be prepped things, otherwise I’d just forgo altogether. Like she’s allergic to sesame so I just wouldn’t use it in case a spare seed got misplaced. But for shellfish, once I had a prepared shrimp cocktail that I literally opened in front of her for the first time and placed on the other side of the table. Didn’t ever have any chance to touch the other dishes. Other wierd ones is she’s allergic to mustard so I always check condiments when we get fast food or have dipping sauces, even if she’s already checking I just like to be sure (she can’t have chick fila sauce!). Shes also allergic to eggs unless they have been cooked all the way through due to the protein changes so I know I can give her baked goods or even chicken fried rice, but no sunny side up or anything like that. I used to check all the time on that one cause it’s so finnicky lol, I told her I wasn’t gonna be the experiment for French toast, she will have to try that on her own. She’s had way more close calls at restaurants, even at her parents house (they cook crab and make her sit outside cause the vapor causes her irritation instead of just not having it!) never had one at my house so I think I’m doing alright. I also worked in food so I know how to sanitize for allergies.
Our family's and friends just know we'll bring our own food to every event. Just a safety precaution!
As a really young person who has celiac disease for around a year this video has made me really happy
Aww! That's sweet!
thats very sweet, but dont share your age online plz, there can be a lot of bad people here.
same :')
@@bananaboiled8938 Its so annoying having celiac I went to a buffet in the morning and like 5 things out of a million thing were gluten free🥲
@@theshiniestmudkip Thank you!
This is genuinely really helpful for highlighting how many things can be contaminated. I have a good friend with lots of allergies including gluten and though I’ve never baked her anything I have wondered sometimes how often a knife gets put back after slicing some bread or the flour was dusted off a spoon which then went into the bag of sugar and gotten a little overwhelmed thinking how I could possibly remember everything that could be contaminated so I don’t forget to clean something.
I used to have a pretty severe gluten allergy and I wish I could’ve felt comfortable asking these questions! I never had the heart to ask when someone made me something.
how did it go away?
Used to? Are you cured?
@@DiAllinson could have been NCGS, which can sometimes go away over time.
@@TigerFucker what is that?
I appreciated that she appreciated the effort and didn't act that that treatment is normal or expected.
I can't imagine anything else tbh
Except she did, and there was no sense of reciprocity or that she would return the favor. I used to be friends with someone who lied about having celiac (openly admitted to it, laughed about making restaurant staff remake her food), so I have zero sympathy anymore. I'm trying to make friends with someone else, and she's dragging me around over where we should go out to eat and I think she might be doing the same thing. Eat what you are served or bring your own food and stop complaining about it to make everyone else feel guilty or make yourself feel more important
Meanwhile, some people in the restaurant during saturday night dinner rush:
Why can't you make an allergy proof gluten free meal right now?
It's very hard to accommodate if you're restaurant isn't set up for it!
@@PeasAndHoppiness No indeed, it's challenging and kind of scary. If people called in advance we'd have a section of the kitchen reserved and deep cleaned, and have select staff work only that section, but that's near impossible on the busiest days, you need as many hands in as much kitchen as possible.
Don't offer gluten free options if you cannot prepare them all the time. I'm not being snarky just honest. So many restaurants wanted in on the gluten free market they didn't think about all it takes or the results of cross contamination.
@@jenna6149So you’d rather they aren’t served period? Literally just call ahead which is very standard for people with allergies. Such a complex allergy to avoid can’t reasonably be catered to when the place is busy and there was no notice, it wouldn’t be safe because during a rush like that you might be distracted and miss a step or mess something up. People with Celiacs should absolutely be able to eat at restaurants and have those options, which is why they’re available by the way, but to expect it to just be casually whipped up when it’s that much of a process is ridiculous. That’s like yelling at your server for putting sugar in your tea when you didn’t specify you didn’t want it, which you seem like the type to do. Have courtesy, Karen.
@@jenna6149there's a difference between catering for someone who is gluten intolerant and someone who is celiac though. At most restaurants where I've worked, if someone tells us they will get sick or have a severe reaction to any amount of gluten or another allergen, we wouldn't serve them.
So many people really don't understand celiac and what a person has to go through daily! It's really good to see a video done correctly ❤
I like the fact that the character who bakes the cake sounds genuinely kind and accepting of the other character’s needs. I found this video soothing.
It gives anxiety and sadness to me
My dad has celiac disease and i keep seeing people not believing him when he tells them about these issues, so seeing this video right now made me really happy :) i hope many, many people see it, because it's such a pain and it would be nice if there was just a little bit more awareness
One of my best friends in high school started developing celiac and I learned all of the things to look for when getting her food and she was so grateful.
@@brennajohnson503that’s so kind of you 🤍 I’m sure it felt very lonely and overwhelming to deal with those unique struggles.

@xplr259 according to my dictionary, it's celiac in AE and coeliac in BE. Just to clarify this for any non-native speakers like me and before this ends in a pointless language debate, which should not be the point of my original comment, thank you.
@@mfel1766what is celiac disease?
😭💜 this is my brother with my food allergies. Every holiday when hes baking cookies he does mine first, and anytime hes using something new he double checks with me since ingredients can be SNEAKY.
I'm so grateful for him 💜
You have a very nice brother. My siblings get annoyed with how much allergies I have and my one of my brothers even think I’m faking it when something bad happens. I don’t have celiac or nothing it’s something different that involves gluten.
@@LoopsLV that's sad. Hope you have some other understandable people around you
@@yuiitodoro7791 I do my mom is the only person who goes out their way to cook for me.
That's so sweet
thats so sweet! im not allergic to gluten but if i was my brother would probably make it have gluten on purpose lol
I'm also Celiac and i really appreciate when people do this, makes me happy
As someone with celiac disease I can confirm that this is a very good thing to do for your friend
Same 😊
What's your reaction to gluten? I just had a course on gastroenterology and am curious. Can you please explain your experience of it?
I agree that if someone truly has celiac disease it is vital to be extra cautious. But so many people are not eating gluten, because it is trendy to say you are gluten free. Also, a gluten intolerance, where someone might have a bit of a digestive issue, won't be overly harmed if gluten is consumed. However, only 1.4% of the global population has celiac, so much of the fuss is drama seeking.
@Avery - would really notice if someone hasn't washed the backing form not carefully?
Vomiting and stomach pain
I have a mate who helps run multiple AA groups and when she had three different new members arrive who were all varying degrees of gluten sensitive, she asked me (I am very sensitive to gluten), to bake their celebration cakes so as to avoid any cross contamination. It's a wonderful feeling when people make that sort of effort for you, and it's an honour to be the person making the effort for someone else, particularly when it's something as important as their AA birthday.
That's really sweet, and i think it's awesome you respect your friends' recovery like that
@@jesthebob Thank you. :)
God bless you.
"Gluten sensitive." Good grief. Some people just want to fussed over because they're starved for affection.
@@mewho6199did you wake up and pick ignorance?
Gluten senstive is juat an umbrella term for people who can range from celiac disease to having an allergen.
Like for instance I don't have lactose intolerance I have an allergic reaction to milk. My throat itches and I start to congest. I have gone to an dermatologist and also confirmed it was an allergen.
I'm also allergic to the Whey protein once again confirmed by an allergy test at the dermatologist this makes me gluten senstive without gluten involved because whey it is in most breads.
Can folks like you learn to use ANY medical website. I don't want to be fussed over I WANT TO NOT FCKIN VOMIT. Fun fact thats an allergic reaction and a common one.
If you don't want to know what its like to have to force your own vomit out your throat cause of how thick bread is to the point you genuinely worry you may die I pray you never do.
Good grief some folks really be playing with others lives cause they can't accept someone's dietary needs.
as someone with lot's of allergies, if someone does anything like this for me I'll start crying out of gratefulness.
I was told I was celiac early this year I'm 13 and the change has been really hard but I'm so glad I found a channel for this
As someone with Celiac, I really appreciate this video.
I hope you bring your own food to dinner parties!
@@tq999Believe it or not there are thousands of safe delicious naturally gluten free foods.
@@tq999 lmao
Yeah as also a someone with celiac it makes me feel appreciated
😮😮
“So I wouldn’t gluten you “ excellently put!
Lol I have celiac desie and thats what my mom has always called that 😂
I think I'd cry if someone went through this much effort for me. My family tries, but like "let's toast your bread first" tries. I finally told them I couldn't share the toaster, even if my bread went first.
Family is funny when they are learning about a whole new thing like this.
When I went dairy free (vegan, but tbh I am allergic to dairy), my dad was so mystified that I think honestly he still doesn't understand all these decades later 😂
I tried and tried but it wasn't getting through..(my mom is only slightly better 😂)
To him, dairy is milk. Maybe also cheese. His brain shut off to it when I tried to tell him foods that have those ingredients will also be omitted. He couldn't understand ingredients mattering, so long as I wasn't.. I don't know.. drinking milk from a cow's udder straight up..
🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️🤦♀️🤣
@CaptainAMAZINGGG 😂 my sister can't do dairy either, but she got lucky since my grandpa was severely lactose intolerant so we grew up with my mom using margarine instead of butter and making other substations. She still buys cheese and dairy milk for herself, and occasionally forgets, but she's better than the average person.
There's a new study that suggests the whole toaster, pots and utensil things isn't necessary. I share a kitchen with my family (who eats gluten) and have zero issues. You should check the data. It makes a difficult life so much more manageable.
@staceyiwaskow320 I use the pots and utensils, as long as they're washed first. I only know the toaster is an issue because of a reaction I had using it directly after they did. IDK if crumbs transferred or what. I've learned all my triggers by trial and error lol. My family isn't very accommodating (like they have a fit i have a rice cooker smaller than a coffee pot), they'd never be OK with me having my own cookware.
Also I have full blown celiacs, not just a gluten intolerance, which could make a difference. My best friend is gluten intolerant and likes to refer to it as having "gluten points". She can get away with a bit of cross contamination, where if I get even a bit of it I swell up and get a migraine within a couple hours.
I still eat out when on vacation or on road trips, I just know I'm not going to feel very good. I try to avoid eating gluten while out, but asking a restaurant kitchen to get rid of anything with flour in it that could come near my food is kinda ridiculous lol
@@SessaVthe toaster thing was for celiac's. But if toaster is a thing for you, then best to avoid! I share mine with my family after reading that study and no reaction. Yeah I've eaten out with gluten intolerant people and then the waiter comes back with 'yeah there's soy sauce in it' and then she goes 'oh I can have a little' 🤦🏽♀️ so embarrassing AND I'm sitting there as a celiac.
The amount of empathy and compassion to be this kind and thoughtful is amazing. Whether it’s family or friend, that’s a lot of effort to prepare a cake. Like someone said in the comments, I’d probably just buy a gluten free cake bc that’s too much prepping at home but if someone does this for you, treasure it!
I love cooking for people with food allergies. I love science, so prepping the kitchen kind of like I’m prepping my lab. And the substitutes and modifications let me use my creativity. Best of all, they are so excited that even if the recipe didn’t turn out perfectly, they still think it tastes great since they don’t eat the regular version. So it’s basically a guaranteed way to make someone with food allergies happy 😊
Can you make me some banana bread without bananas? If you can figure that out, let me know, I really miss banana bread 😭
@@SleepyDaisy99 Maybe pumpkin bread? That stuff is amazing 🙌
@@clairer342 pumpkin bread is delicious, but not quite the same unfortunately 🫶
I would cry if it went this well when I questioned someone. They usually lie or make me feel bad for being ungrateful that they tried to make me something. I have an aunt who tried to tell me whole wheat tortillas didn't have gluten because they were "healthy", like ???? The reasoning of some people literally makes NO SENSE
I hate so much when people lie for things that will hurt you for your particular diseases, they're the worst, you decide how much physical suffering you can tolerate (and it can be zero, most time it's just about being careful and following certain simple instructions, not something that hard, and you're in your right to be zero tolerant, some people will not care or change until you apply the zero tolerance policy sadly) not them
People who don't have dietary limitations/needs (needs not temporary diet choices) can't fully understand how beautiful this is. I'm diabetic and when I'm pregnant, my insulin resistance is so High I have to carb count everything. That year someone made me a diabetic friendly pumpkin cheesecake and delivered it the day before Thanksgiving. I cried. It's hard anyway but especially on holidays like birthdays where food is such a huge social and cultural part of the celebration. we all need more friends like this. I always participate in the teal pumpkin project for Halloween all kids can be included.
❤❤❤ i have glaucoma and i also can't eat too much simple carbs at a time, and i don't have caffeine anymore, sending lots of love❤ God bless you✝️❤️
My kids have fpies. 6 trigger foods which were major ingredients in just about everything out there, along with their derivatives and byproducts down to trace amounts. I had no idea how intense food prep and sanitation needed to be until my daughter was born. When wed have people over or we would be invited places we'd always bring her separate food and dishes and make sure everyone is aware not to give her anything without talking to me first.
We also do the teal pumpkin ❤
❤have you looked at the option of going carnivore for a while to get rid of your diabetes?
Just so readers know, diabetes and insulin resistance are not the same thing.
@@JulieK89 ah yes, the perfectly reasonable treatment plan of trading diabetes for scurvy. thank you, doctor internet.
I do this for my celiac friend. She is an awesome person and it’s well worth the effort.
I live with someone that has celiac disease, so all of this is second nature to me now but thinking about one of the their friends going the extra mile like that would make them so happy. They often bring their own things with them just so they aren't a burden on people.
As someone who as a celiac dad,brother and sister this was very true I grew up gluten free and constantly had to explain to people and make sure there hands etc were clean.It was very difficult to go to party’s because people always did gluten stuff.This is a great video
and what happens if you have some gluten?
Coeliac disease is an autoimmune immune disease. Eating any amount of gluten can cause permanent damage to your digestive system.
ive always thought ppl who have celiacs look like language arts teachers and heres another example of my thesis being true
Dang release the survey. I want to know if I do!
Well it's actually Celiac disease not celiacs so...
I have one of the most severe cases of celiac in the world and I am a trans guy who looks like a 13-year-old version of Kuboyasu Aren from Saiki K
That’s nice to know… 😭
Awww I did this for my bonus daughter for her birthday. The look on her face was all the confirmation that I needed. It was very appreciated! :)
Bonus daughter 💚
You have a bonus daughter? I have a bonus son!

@@Jae_Moi step-mom and step-kid sound bad according to Disneyland, so it’s a positive connotation for that to make it sound cooler

i have celiac disease and always feel left out at restaurants and other peoples houses because they don’t know who bad it can be. i have never had someone go even close to doing this for me ( i do understand how hard it can be to clean everything) but this rlly warmed my heart.❤
Do you have to bring your own food wherever you go?
Gayer than the double checking husband lesbian. Nvm I'm just deleting this gay person
@@hshepard5538I have coeliac disease, and often for parties or picnics I will pack my own food, but for restaurants I look at the menu ahead of time to check if there are gluten free options and if there is a risk of contamination
Yes
My cousin is allergic to corn and corn derivatives. There are virtually no alternatives in food for her. Everything we consume has corn derivatives and/or corn syrup in it. At least GF people have alternatives!
I did all this for a friend with a peanut allergy. Washed the glass cake pan and metal bowl with a fresh sponge, and used new flour and sugar, just in case. I've done this for friends with gluten intolerance and soy allergies, too. I love to bake, and have my own food restrictions, so I sympathize with rarely getting home- baked goods.
But I always list my preventive measures and tell them if they feel uncomfortable about eating it we can just give it away. I never want someone to feel like they have to risk their health just to show appreciation for my efforts.
That’s amazing!!
I have celiac disease and once I had to go to a restraunt and I ordered gluten free pasta we confirmed it was celiac and then when they brought it out only until after I ate it I realized it tasted too good to be gluten free and following that night my stomach hurt, I vomited, and could barely move without a headache. I was miserable for the next week until it got out of my system and I started to feel better. Celiac is a serious thing and if someone made me a cake with this much generosity I would probably cry. It’s hard to transition from eating gluten to being gluten free entirely especially when your “Friends” make fun of you and threaten to sneak gluten in your food to make you sick…
If people sneak gluten into your food they are not your friends.
I've had a similar experience to you when I went out for pizza with a friend, she always has the gluten-free option too even though she is not Coeliac or NCGS, the restaurant must have mixed up the pizza base as within an hour I was feeling really unwell, too unwell for it to have been a small cross contamination. What annoyer me most is, I had been to that restaurant many times before on days when it was really busy and on this day there were only 4 other diners in the restaurant. I haven't neen back since.
Same thing happened to me tonight with a burger bun
yah....my daughter doesn't trust anyone's word that it's celiac friendly. She's been glutened too many times. :( Most average people do not understand the lengths they truly have to go to in order to assure it's celiac friendly.
I'm so fucking good at sniffing out gluten any time I taste gluten and brush it off thinking I'm paranoid I'm doubled over and vomiting within the hour, I don't second guess myself anymore if I think I taste gluten it's out (of my kitchen and my mouth)
@@butasimpleidiotwizardSame!! I once had an experience at a restaurant where we even looked stuff up we asked the chefs the managers. And then when the food arrived I was like. This is good… too good. I tasted teriyaki sauce and my whole family called me crazy, but turns out it was teriyaki sauce…
I can relate to this video so much. I have celiac disease too and it’s really hard when people don’t understand about cross contamination and I think that this video represents what people should be like in this situation.
It means the world to me when people go out of their way to make sure I can eat with them. I’m really glad I have the friends who actually take the time to be careful and do the work it takes to keep me from being so sick! I’m really grateful your video is out here to help people understand what we go through and need. Sometimes, I feel bad when I shouldn’t. Normalizing this helps me to feel better about it❤
This is very true! I lost friends over my celiac diagnosis because it was "too difficult" to go out to eat with me.
That’s horrible. I’m sorry that happened! It ain’t easy, but we make it through❤️
I have severe food allergies. Thank you for teaching people about this stuff cause just making something blank free isn't enough. And I'm happy people realize that and take to time to make something safe.
As someone with a ton of severe allergies and gluten free this would be a dream come true. I recently had someone who tried but didn't fully understand the ingredients and therefore when I asked the ingredients I wasn't able to eat the cake. It's hard because not only want to try and of course appreciate their efforts but also seen that it hurt them me having to refuse. When there are different allergens that are hidden under many different names it makes everything that much harder and riskier to try foods that I've not prepared myself.
I think the social nature of food makes these things so hard. Having to refuse food from a well meaning person who tried to make it allergy free makes me feel so bad. The best people are the ones who are willing to make the effort AND still understand you may choose not to partake without feeling hurt.❤
What about a supermarket tho it has gluten & gluten products and conveyor belt isn’t wiped down after every use. Things leak on the conveyor belt all the time. Main culprits are juices, flour regardless of what kind, & suger.
Maybe try inviting her over to do some baking with you and that way she can learn the right way to do it, so you can eat what she makes, and she doesn't feel bad for making it wrong.
@@NicholasJH96On a lot of packagings there's just an information that it may contain something. This way the company ensures they won't get sued in case something does leak.
I completely understand! I’ve got MCAS, and I’m allergic to so many things! I tell people to not make me anything, because it’s just too hard!
My mom has celiac disease and can’t eat gluten, so this is really sweet and if someone did this for her I’m sure she’d be thrilled :)
My daughter has celiacs and this kind of stuff is so appreciated ❤
In my entire life, I have never met anyone with a gluten allergy- not in any European country that I lived in. Truly makes me wonder why Americans seem to be so much more frequently allergic to lots of things…
💉💉💉 It’s the stuff they inject into people. They’re creating these problems. And some are just attention seeking babies.
Quite an ignorant comment. How do you even know? Most people don’t announce it. Anyway, from The Association of European Coeliac Societies (AOECS)
“1 in 100 people are estimated to suffer from coeliac disease in Europe. Applying that ratio, it can be assumed that more than 7 million people are affected by coeliac disease across Europe, with only approximately 25% of those actually receiving a diagnosis.”
@@TammyJames-yg2hs Read my comment again and at least TRY to understand it. I never said it doesn’t exist at all. 🙈
@@nicitanic lol I never said you wrote it didn’t exist! Actually read my comment and TRY to understand, you can’t say you NEVER met anyone with a gluten allergy. 🤡

Wow! Not even my family would do this for me. Cherish and protect anyone who cares this much!
Right! i have gluten intolerance due to Hashimotos, so way less severe than celiac, and I can handle cross contamination... and most of my family still wouldn't consider this stuff. Just like pull an "oh no" face when they realise they've cooked "family" meals that I can't eat enough of to constitute a meal and I have to go cook extra.

I wish just one of the people who claim to care about me had even an ounce of this kind of care and compassion when it comes to gf food. Someone who has this kind of friend is very blessed!
My out of town friend stopped in for a visit one time on their way through our state. Her son has food allergies, too. When I offered him a snack, she was hesitant until I told her that they were safe for him. She was overjoyed that I made sure to have some options for him.
I have celiac too! I'm fourteen and I have had it since age 2. People often overlook all these specific things but I could get fatally I'll if I eat too much gluten and even 1/8 of a teaspoon can permanently damage my intestines. I NEEDED this video. Thank you so much!
I have celiac & this is exactly how my boyfriends mom is for me whenever she cooks / bakes something gluten free :) she’s so sweet and asked so many questions and actually listened when I explained how sensitive I can be to minimal cross contamination. Such a loving family & I feel so blessed to not be seen as a bother as celiacs often are!
I wish more people were like this friend. 😢 I don’t have anyone who would go out of their way and do this for me.
Gosh mate, that makes me sad. It must be a lot!, constantly worrying but whether something you're eating will make you ill.
I'll admit I only learned recently just how sneaky food labling is, how easy cross contamination is (xmas this yr incl an inlaw branch incl. x1 GF_ now, let me specify this was NO compromise on our usual menu, just a lot of ingredient checking and care_ we went with a 100% gluten free lunch, to which my sole independent contribution was The Ham.
"The ham!, I thought, no flour, job done"_ are you laughing, ...that's OK I may one day too, not yet though.
Having secured a safe guaranteed 100% GF (& nitrates too, that's just a pref but a health one we're all fairly married to) at ridiculous effort, now I had to glaze and bake it!
I'm a simple cook and planned a simple cook;
A citrus, ginger, balsamic glaze
Preserved oranges [already in the cupboard, big old GF on the pack!] and cloves to garnish [got those too]!
Id cleaned the whole kitchen, had clean utensils, and was spooning powdered ginger into oj&balsamic when, I swear to all gods, a voice in my head said "STOP. Call [SiL] to check"
Oh and thank those gods, all! Because...
(Having not opened the ham packaging when I'd been dusting the room with glutenee yet UNLABELLED, spice powders) I sent hubby out on a desperate 10.mins.close missionforfresh oranges to quick candy.
The glaze became oj, honey and tamari
When I then realised (too late for the store) that the whole cloves I did have were too risky (an open pack unsealed, stuffed into a jar w another pack of powdered all spice, see above) .. so close!!... deep breaths... toothpicks are a poor man's solution but rosemary springs felt Christmasie enough... stumbling back in from the garden i spied a neighbour who, i love this neighbourhood, had overheard my weird wail of "no.fuh'king.cloves" (summer here, windows open) and miracule upon a star I say!, offered me her unopened packet!!
Getting it safely wrapped and secured in the fridge like the crown jewels of England left me feeling so very humbled for any time I probably had done an internal (oh I hope it didn't show) eyeroll at someone's hardships living with restrictive dietary concerns.
❤😢I have been gf for about 15 years and NO ONE has ever made let alone just BUY me a $10 gf birthday cake I have had to make or buy my every year and I ask people who say they love me and would do anything for me but they don't even remember or care. We should make each other cake 🍰🎉❤ I am also the best cook I know
I mean if you pick good friends, you’ve likely already experienced it. Some people just keep friends to prevent loneliness not to because of companionship and love.
I can't even get my family to be this careful. But they are in denial of their own allergies. I just don't eat at or participate in parties. This really makes them POed as I am the best baker in the family. 😅
Same, including siblings. My wife is the ONLY person that would do this, but she's also GF, so that doesn't really count. My sister just resented me every time I told her I couldn't eat things made directly on her bare butcher block table because it had been used for wheat flour. She made me feel like such a burden every time I came over. It was serious schadenfreude when she was diagnosed with Celiac, herself, a couple of years ago. It's the one time "eat quinoa!" feels like clapback lol.
Everyone deserves a thoughtful person who will go through this for them ❤️ diseases can really be heavy on a person :')
Even just the courtesy of making something gluten-free (and personally dairy-free) for me makes me feel grateful, but putting in all the effort to avoid cross-contamination in all the ways no one else would think is so so validating ❤️
I do this when I bake for my mom who has celiac. It’s very important and she appreciates it. When so much of the world revolves around gluten in treats. It’s nice for them to have something they can eat totally safely. This is a great friend!
This is so helpful! My daughter's best friend has celiac disease and I've been learning how feed her safely when she comes over. Now I will be able to serve her some homemade cake, instead of the store bought cookies. Thank you 😊
My brother and dad all have celiac, and they cant eat most things from other people since they dont know if its been cross-contaminated. Its hard for us, especially since my brother is a teen, and im glad that we have a friend like this. I dont think ive ever watched someone mention celiac in a video, so thank you!
So they can't tolerate any trace of flour!? I never realised is was that sever and imagined you need a decent amount to have any negative side-egfects.
What are the side effects specifically? Diarrhoea?
Genuine question cause I'm trying to learn more
@@ellaova for them if they eat the next day they get really grumpy, and have stomach problems. I don't know much about them getting glutened since we try to not do it.
Its not just flour, it's wheat, barley, and other things that are gluten (I forgot the rest-)
Celiac is when your body attacks the intestines when you eat gluten basically, and you can die from it.
That's a keeper there. Both the husband and the friend. I wouldn't even care how the cake tasted the fact that someone went through all that effort would be enough.
Hats off to the person who does this for anyone with so much patience.
My mom is a celiac and when I explain how to make things to other people they are always very overwhelmed. Congrats on being able to condense it all into one video!
My stepson was celiac AND allergic to gluten requiring EPI and the fun celiac symptoms 😭 this literally has me in tears! He had to have his own sets of pans and dishes etc everywhere he stayed (grandparents, uncles) BC of how bad it was. He was so lucky to have so many ppl who loved him and wanted him safe that everyone made special cupboards just for him that were otherwise locked so no accidental use happened!
I know someone whose allergy is so severe, they have to have dishes and utensils that haven’t ever touched gluten. My heart goes out to anyone dealing with this.
my dad has celiac disease, it was normal in our household to have two separate sets of butter for dad and the rest of us, he had his own toaster and everything
My mom is the Celiac and she immediately puts some of the butter in a Seperate dish so she can use it and no one else is allowed to touch it.
Butter? Why?
@@doritos80 if you use a knife that has been in contact with bread for example then the Butter would be contaminated and a person with Celiac would not be able to use the butter
This was so educational! Thank you for sharing, I didn’t know about cross contamination for gluten
My friend got diagnosed with some pretty bad celiacs a couple years ago and we are all still in high school. I remember how fun it was to try new gluten free recipes and buy fun stuff at Walmart like gluten free Dino nuggies 😊 it’s so true that when you love your friend you’ll have fun helping them ❤

This is a good way to comfort your friend, family or who ever it is. I feel like coeliac awareness week needs something because everything else has something happening or on the tv when we have nothing so we need to do something.
God bless you for posting this! Three of my family are wheat allergic and celiac. My daughter so bad she must carry an epi pen. People just do not understand cross contamination.
A friend of mine is a professional chef and he ones told a story about someone who was in the same Situation that he just cannot provide safe food for them bc their big kitchen is used all day to cook stuff thats not safe for them. The Person making the Reservation understood, was happy to be made aware and was able to bring something for themselves to still enjoy a meal with the group

@@ivoryhenson1285 thank you
As someone with many food intolerances thank you for showing cross-contamination. Many dont know and dont take it seriously.
This is so sweet! If I ever have a friend who has a dietary disease or allergy bad enough to make cross contamination bad for them I'd be extra careful to make safe food for them whenever I have the time and ingredients to. These people struggle to find places they can eat bc of the risks of cross contamination, so making them something enjoyable and safe would make anyone's day (or week if it's enough to last that long!)
I have a few relatives with minor food allergies and intolerances and even then I want to try my hardest to make sure there are options for them to eat with 0 risk.
You sound amazing. Just FYI if you do ever meet someone like that, mix by hand. The regular flour that gets into the motor of mixers gets into the food unfortunately, a lesson that took me a while to figure out.
This is realistic. At least for the first occassion of them cooking for you. Its their safety and health their converned for. And It may seem extra, but it's a great gift for special occasions for people with eating restrictions. Itd suck not to get to eat freely. My bf has a tree nut allergy. I went to hell and back to find the perfect flavorings and dupe ingredients to make nut free macarons. He'd never gotten to try them 💔 And the other night, he got to try orange chicken we made together, since it's almost inaccessible from non cross contaminated settings. He loved both as much as I thought he might and he gets to taste how much I appreciate him.
Yup, first time I baked for someone with a serious allergy I kept all the wrappers and had them double check me.
Several food allergies and my family still doesn’t understand this. Well portrayed!
Mhmmm and how many of these allergies are actually backed up by an allergist, not a NP? Your family likely has doubts for a good reason.

I Never knew there are so many things to look after if you want to make something safely gluten free.
Thank you for this video. 🙏❤
I have a celiac parent. This would really make her day. Usually when people give her homemade food, she can't trust that it's safe.
Oh my goodness thank you! I was just about to make my friend some gluten free brownies. Thank you for this advice!
Those are the REAL gifts. It's the chronic illness love language.
Because it's not even about the cake itself, it's the thought AND execution. Educating yourself about your friend's/family member's condition is a gift. Actually understanding it is one of the best way to say "I love you".
