Swedish Royal Bakery

Today I had a piece of my friend Karen's Gluten-Free birthday cake. HAPPY BIRTHDAY KAREN! I would love to give you a detailed description of how the cake was, but I downed it! I can tell you, this has to be the best Gluten-Free cake I have had.

 

Anyways, The Swedish Royal Bakery is not a dedicated Gluten-Free Bakery (the owner doesn't he claim it is). The cool thing is is he is willing to get things as clean as possible before making your cake. For all you "Gluten-Free Nazi's" this might not be the place for you!

I am ordering a Gluten-Free cake for my daughters birthday for the end of this month. I will take pictures and give a detailed description in my next posting.

 

Happy eating, learning and living!

What is Celiac Disease?

Celiac disease is a disease of the small intestine. The small intestine is a 22 foot long tube that begins at the stomach and ends at the large intestine (colon). The first 1-1/2 feet of the small intestine (the part that is attached to the stomach) is called the duodenum, the middle part is called the jejunum, and the last part (the part that is attached to the colon) is called the ileum. Food empties from the stomach into the small intestine where it is digested and absorbed into the body. While food is being digested and absorbed, it is transported by the small intestine to the colon. What enters the colon is primarily undigested food. In celiac disease, there is an immunological (allergic) reaction within the inner lining of the small intestine to (gluten) that are present in wheat, rye, barley and, to a lesser extent, in oats. The immunological reaction causes inflammation that destroys the lining of the small intestine. This reduces the absorption of dietary nutrients and can lead to symptoms and signs of nutritional, vitamin, and mineral deficiencies.
