Gluten Free Chocolate Coconut Cake
Gluten Free Chocolate Coconut Cake
I was diagnosed with a sensitivity to gluten/wheat about 10 years ago. Eating wheat gave me migraines and ulcer-like feelings in my stomach. Although I was happy to know the cause of my pain, eating gluten free (along with sugar and dairy free) was not an easy change to make. Ten years ago there were hardly any gluten free products on the market. I had to go to specialty stores to find products I could use.
Baked goods were something I really missed. And I’ll have to admit, my first attempts at baking gluten free were a complete failure! The availability of gluten free products has certainly come a long way and so have my baking results! This Gluten Free Chocolate Coconut Cake is really moist and flavorful. My favorite gluten free flour blend comes from King Arthur and is readily available at my local grocery stores. I have had great success with this baking mix and best of all it does not have a funny aftertaste like many products do!
