I am needing to make a gluten free cake for a daughter's friend. She is wanting it in the shape of an unicorn. Has anyone tried carving the cake? Thx

I have used this cake mix a lot, but I have not carved it. It bakes up moist and dense if you don't over-bake it. I think it would work, but the only way to know for sure is to try it. One box makes one layer cake. I use two for a sheet cake or two-layer cake. The yellow cake mix tastes good. The chocolate tastes great.

Yes, I have and it's a little more crumbly than a regular cake so cut gingerly. But it is doable with patience.

Never tried that. We use the cake mix for other things like banana nut bread, small cupcakes. Sorry cannot help you.

The gluten free breads I have worked with so far were too sticky for these. I've only tried a couple of recipes so it's a really limited experience.

I have used it to make gluten free oatmeal cookies and they came out great. Even my cookie pro husband likes them. I also use it to make tapioca pudding and anything else that calls for sugar.

That's a good question! I usually follow the recipes on the website first and the cake did seem a bit heavy for me so if xanthan gum would help make it fluff a little more, that may be a good suggestion! If you try and it helps, please let us know!

Yes, I'm a food scientist they work for the gluten free as well. What it is doing is changing the heat distribution allowing the batter act accordingly to make the outer edges react at the same time as the middle. That is how it is able to make it come out flat.

I found a recipe for mini angel food cakes that I used the first time. They came out quite perfect. Those were my wedding cakes last June, I served them with chopped up strawberries & raspberries with a bit of sauce & dollop of whipped cream. They were beautiful & delicious. Since then, I use a regular recipe and it works out fine. I suppose you could even use a boxed angel food mix, though I'm not positive about that since they are not available here in France where I live.

Yes, gluten free and flourless cakes rise beautifully as well. I like to double up on the strips for cakes with longer than normal bake times also the outside doesn't crisp up too much though.

I have not made gluten free bread but have made gluten free cakes with it that was great.

Sorry, I no longer have any packages left to check this out for you. The cake is very good, though, and very much the same as regular (gluten) angel food mix. I use the packaged refrigerator egg whites in grocery and they work great.

Have never made gluten free dough so don't know, but you could certainly press any dough into the cups just like you might in a cupcake tin.

Hello! I have read in many gluten free cookbooks that they are NOT the same. If a recipe calls for potato starch, then that is what you must use. The texture is different - the starch is a very fine powder. I hope this helps!

Yes, I only use it for gluten free breads and have had great results. I haven't tried cakes yet.

The online manual says it has a gluten free setting.So my guess is you should be able to bake a gluten free bread.

Sorry. Gluten allergies are not an issue with me so I didn't think to check that out. I'm sure the bakery that sold the decoration would be able to answer your questions. Good luck!!

I am Sorry don't know. Gluten Free is no Problem. I think if you use baking Soda instead of Yeast it would be possible.

I haven't made that recipe, so I don't know. I used the recipe that came with the pan for gingerbread cake and it was a light, fluffy cake result. If the fudge recipe is similar to that (doesn't sound like it! LOL) it might work. Either way, REALLY grease the pan and add a light flour coating. Hope it works out!!

If you mean gluten-free then I would say there are some issues. I use it for gluten free cupcakes and I am still working on the timing, when I get it right, they turn out delicious.
