A luscious cream filling wrapped with moist yellow cake, topped with a thin chocolate ganache makes these gluten free Boston cream cupcakes the most delicious dessert you’ll ever have. Boston cream pies was a favorite of mine since I was a child. Now you can have them, too, in individual-size portions. They are so easy to serve when you’re having guests. One of my gluten-eating guests asked for one to go! Continue reading “Gluten Free Boston Cream Cupcakes”
Sometimes a small cake is perfect for a household of two to four people. This decadent and moist gluten free peanut butter cup cake recipe makes a two-layer cake from 5 to 7-inches wide to a standard size cake. The picture is worth a thousand words. Couldn’t you just dive in right now? The frostings alone are a treat. They taste just like a Reese’s Peanut Butter Cup! Continue reading “Gluten Free Peanut Butter Cup Cake Recipe – 5 to 7-Inch”
This rich and decadent dessert is perfect for holidays and special occasions. The crust cannot be distinguished from traditional graham cracker crust. Everyone enjoys it. If you’re tired of the same old boring cheesecake or love coconut, give this one a try. The coconut and chocolate combination is incredible! Not into coconut? Make this cheesecake recipe, instead.

I created a Gluten Free Boston Cream Pie recipe using my Self-Rising Cake Flour Blend Recipe a few years back. However, after publishing the Custard-Filled Strawberry-Topped Cake Recipe recently, it got me to thinking. It appears my Gluten Free Sponge Cake Recipe truly is ideal for making a gluten free Boston cream pie recipe. It absorbs custard easily, making it super moist and tender. You can fill it with baked custard or pastry cream, which I prefer, or use packaged gluten-free pudding mix. Enjoy! Continue reading “Gluten Free Boston Cream Pie Recipe II”
This Italian dish is so rich and delicious that you can serve it to everyone. Using homemade, gluten-free egg pasta, covered with creamy sauce, marinara, or Bolognese/meat sauce, your family and guests won’t believe it’s gluten-free. Kids who “hate spinach” beg for second helpings of this gluten free chicken cannelloni. Serve it as a side or main dish. Continue reading “Gluten Free Chicken Cannelloni with Homemade Pasta”
This gluten free red velvet cake recipe is moist and luscious. Red Velvet is known for its richness. While not everyone has the time to make a three-layer, double-frosted cake, when you wish to impress guests, this is the cake to make. When time is short, make a single frosted cake and/or make a naked cake (no frosting on the sides). The cake, as well as frosting recipes, were raved about by my cookbook recipe testers. If you usually use ready-made frosting, you may never again.
Note: Also find this gluten-free recipe in my upcoming cookbook Carla’s Best 125 Gluten-Free Recipes. Continue reading “Double-Frosted Gluten Free Red Velvet Cake Recipe”
In Japan, on Christmas Eve, they traditionally serve Christmas cake, made of sponge cake, covered in whipped cream and topped with strawberries. Sometimes it was decorated with chocolate or Santa Clause. It was a symbol of Western modernity and a high social status as they were expensive. Since it’s inception, these cakes have become affordable. They are also available in multiple variations, not just whipped cream and strawberries. I knew nothing about this tradition until Julie asked me for a sponge cake recipe so that one of her sons could make a gluten free Japanese Christmas Cake covered in Cool Whip for school. I forwarded her my Recipe for Gluten Free Sponge Cake. Continue reading “Naked Gluten Free Japanese Christmas Cake Recipe”
Whether you’re looking for a sweet treat to serve at a brunch or to your family, this decadent concoction, will do the trick. Not only can you use chocolate syrup and bananas, but other fruit as well as fruit purees as a sauce. The waffle recipe (see below link) is raved about by many. They’re so light! Continue reading “Gluten Free Brunch Waffles”
One of my favorite recipes is tiramisu. These gluten free tiramisu parfaits combines some of my favorite fillings: vanilla pudding, cream cheese, and whipped cream with one of my favorite cakes, sponge cake. (The sponge cake is the same recipe I use in my Gluten Free Tiramisu Cake Recipe.) The espresso, or strong coffee, along with chocolate create traditional tirmasu flavor. It’s easier to serve when having guests and is impressive. Tiramsu is often everyone’s favorite. May they all enjoy! Continue reading “Gluten Free Tiramisu Parfaits”
