Sweetie Cakes Co. by Cat Wellington: Allergy-Friendly Cake Mixes
Filed in archive Food Allergies by ruth on July 20, 2007

Resident of Santa Barbara, California and has food allergies herself, Cat Wellington launched an alternative cake-mix business - Sweetie Cakes Co. - for distribution of certified organic, vegan and fair-trade mixes and frostings.
[Her three chocolate cake mixes (one gluten-free, one sugar-free and one "regular") come in plain brown paper bags that resemble children's lunch sacks and require only the addition of oil and water. The regular chocolate isn't actually "regular" because it's dairy- and egg-free.
The gluten-free cake has a dense, brownie-like taste and texture. The batter has an oily smell, which mostly fades during baking. The regular version, containing organic unbleached baking flour, more closely resembles a typical cake in taste and smell. The frosting, meanwhile, is as sweet and silky as any homemade variety, especially if non-vegans use butter instead of margarine.]
With Cat Wellington's products, people with food allergies can now eat chocolate birthday cakes
