Birthday Cake for One-year Old with Milk, Egg and Peanut Allergies

whole foods carries that mix that you are talking about. Also, I think central market carries that brand. Market street MIGHT carry it. At Kroger you might want to look in their organic/specialty section. As for a bakery specializing in those allergies, I don't know. There is a great place called Laura's Bistro in Plano that does gluten free stuff. They might know of a place that could do a cake for you. Good luck!

Try the Wacky Chocolate cake recipe. We tried the Cherrybrook Farm's cake and honestly it tasted like sweet cornbread to us. The texture is very dry. I did the Wacky Cake and everyone begged for the recipe. Also icing is Very Simple! I will never buy it again. Buy butter flavor Crisco sticks, pure vanilla flavor and powdered sugar. You just combine about 1 lb or the sugar with 1/2 stick of Crisco, 1 tsp of vanilla and add water as needed. Use a mixer and it whips right up! I know that most of the Pillsbury frostings do not contain milk or peanuts. I am not positive about eggs though.

Crazy Cake is awesome and easy.

SuperTarget does carry Cherrybrook Kitchen and even has the premade frosting along with the mix.

My daughter has a dairy allergy, and we substitute Fleischmann's unsalted margarine or Earth Balance in the brown tub...but I am not 100% that they're dairy free. Both make great frosting; you almost can't tell the difference.

Also, be sure to check out www.kidswithfoodallergies.org. They have a great recipe database.

I bake and decorate from home and one of my most favorite websites is www.cakecentral.com. It has recipes and forums where people post results and ideas all the time about what they have found and tried and tested. I know there are allergy recipes on there so give it a shot.
Hope this helps!

Bake your own with your favorite recipe only use "almond milk" and "egg replacer." Both sold at places like Whole Foods or Central Market. Also, I highly encourage you not to use sugar- use honey instead!

Check out Indian Bakeries. The Vegetarian ones have alot of options. I know my Indian friends use a bakery in Richardson. Have a look on the web.

Try Laura's Bistro. It is located at 930 W. Parker, Suite 420 in Plano. It is open Tues thru Sat. Tel ###-###-####.

Here is a recipe if you're up for making it yourself. I will have to do the same for my daughter's birthday as she is allergic to milk. Good luck to you!

Cherrybrook does have a box mix but it is not in every store. Some of the Kroger locations have started carrying it in their main boxed mix aisle. Sprouts carries it as does Super Target, some Tom Thumbs, Whole Foods, and Central Market.

I have cooked for egg, milk, and peanut allergies before but cooking without egg can be tough. We made Duncan Hines and used Sprite instead of eggs and it worked pretty well. Google vegan recipes and you will probably find something.

Also---Whole Foods sells an egg substitute in their baking aisle.

Good luck!

Hi L., I live in Allen also and I have seen the Cherrybrook farms cake mixes and frostings at the Super Target at the corner of 121 and custer. I am pretty sure they have them at the Kroger at Alma and McDermott. Not positive about the Kroger though...I was in there Friday but I was also in Tom Thumb on Saturday so I might be confused. You could always call though. Target had them for sure.
