Alot of parents ask me about cake mixes for my nut-allergic child.<br /><br />You prove how worthwhile it is to call the company and/or manufacturer for clarification.Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09257784551296505299noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32458049.post-70810903820068102852009-08-04T10:27:05.358-04:002009-08-04T10:27:05.358-04:00We deal with your allergens & more...and I'...We deal with your allergens & more...and I'm going to venture a guess that there is white potato flour and/or soy flour in these mixes which would automatically nix them for us.<br /><br />As well, there is probably potato in the baking powder.<br /><br />Additionally, we've reacted to vanilla that was supposedly gluten free for whatever reason (alcohol potato based?) so if there is vanilla added to the mixes we would avoid.<br /><br />I prefer my own mixes that I've been perfecting for about 10 years to an overpriced mass marketed store bought version, but that's just me!South Slopehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06819698322563085391noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32458049.post-8968147815547906802009-08-04T09:40:58.893-04:002009-08-04T09:40:58.893-04:00In general, I think it's just a good idea to a...In general, I think it's just a good idea to avoid processed foods. Prepared mixes are usually full of junk ingredients. Why take any risks for something like this? Just find the time and make your own safe and "better for you" baked goods.michelle knoernschildhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13807563605493930052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32458049.post-90430560032874796932009-08-04T09:27:35.572-04:002009-08-04T09:27:35.572-04:00We've tried the Brownies.

Until they can get the price down it will be a once in awhile treat. BTW, we lived in Canada for a few years and they are VERY conscientious about tree nuts up there. There are lots of candy makers (Nestle, Hershey, etc.) that have dedicated facilities with no nuts. We were surprised to find they didn't bother to do it for the US market.Aprilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12550732278466684061noreply@blogger.com
