Esentially, I’m gluten free and would like some nice gluten free/wheat free cookies or cakes or muffins recipes that are easy to make at home. I’m not very experienced at home baking so the recipes need to be fairly straightforward and easy to understand so I don’t end up with an inedible disaster.

When I could eat virtually anything, I used to really enjoy jaffa cakes. But now I have to be careful because of my wheat intolerance so can’t just go out and buy jaffa cakes from the supermarket (but sometimes I do). So has anyone got a recipe for gluten free jaffa cakes so I can enjoy them again without risking my health by upsetting my digestive system.

My soon to be eight year old son has asked me to make him a chocolate cake for his birthday party Who knows why!). He also want it to be iced  with white sugar icing and decorated. So I need a good recipe for chocolate cake. Do you think it would be best to use ready-to-roll icing or royal icing? Also, do you think I will still need to put a thin layer of almond paste/marzipan between cake and icing? Thank you in anticipation of all your help.

A good friend will be celebrating his birthday soon. He has a wheat and gluten intolerance. I was wondering if there are any good tried and true recipes out there for a gluten free birthday cake or dessert of some kind. Something that has the lightness and texture of a conventional homemade cake recipe. Please don’t ask me to search for it on Google. I really want a gluten free homemade cake recipe that someone here has tried and was successful.

Recipe for a quick and easy fruit cake please?
