Gluten-free Cakes and Biscuits

We are very happy to report that we have tested all the recipes in the Delia's Cakes book, with gluten-free ingredients.

And we're even happier to tell all gluten-free cake-makers that we have been most impressed with the results. Sometimes the cakes might be a little more crumbly, but most of the time there is very little difference, particularly with muffins, fruit cakes and biscuits. To make your cake gluten-free, just replace any ingredients listed below with gluten-free versions.

The gluten-free ingredients we used are:

• White flour, plain and self-raising


• Baking powder


• Cornflour


• Cereals


• Porridge oats (ground in a mini-chopper to replace oatmeal)


• Polenta
  
  NOTE: A small number of our recipes were really not suitable; these have been marked with an asterisk on the contents page of Delia's Cakes Book.
