No, I haven’t done it yet either. But when I do, I’ll be using my tried and tested gluten free celebration cake.

Did I tell you this is now known in our family as Daddy-sat-on cake?

Not because he did sit on it – no, there was an accident in transit once (he dropped it) and it ended up looking … well, rather flat. The children, of course, thought this was hilarious, and so a family tradition was born.

(NO, not of dropping the cake OR sitting on it!)

I’ve written a book summarising what we’ve learnt over 20 years of dealing with the gluten free diet, and it might be just what you’re looking for. It packs the lessons we’ve learned into what I hope is a helpful and straightforward guidebook. It’s available on Amazon, as a paperback or for your Kindle…

    Hi Margaret – are you looking for someone to make cakes in Plymouth? I found Ladybird Bakery, which are based in Plymouth. Then there is Let Them Eat and Tilley’s, which is a bit further away (in Paignton)
