FAQs

Gluten is a protein found in wheat and related grains, including barley and rye. Gluten gives the elasticity to the cake, helping it to rise and keep its shape and often gives the final moist, non crumbly texture.
At Gluten Free Cake Nation we have overcome the lack of gluten to keep the cakes elastic and moist without the need for gluten.

All our cakes are delicious, so people with a tolerence to gluten can easily eat and enjoy the cakes. However those in the community who can not tolerate gluten or are ceoliacs often find that they miss out on the delicious cakes that are served in social situations. At Gluten Free Cake Nation we feel everyone deserves scrumptious cakes, which is why we have developed the gluten free cake range.

Every product is different, but all contain some combination of rice flour, tapioca flour, potato starch and maize flour. However there are corn free flour options, if needed.

When I originally started gluten free baking 15 years ago, there was quite a difference between cakes with gluten and cakes without, however over time the combination of flours have improved, and the gluten free cakes taste just as delicious as gluten filled cakes.

Yes all of our cakes can be frozen. If freezing is required we have an information sheet, with the best way to freeze the cakes. We recommend any left over cake (if there is any), to be cut into slices and frozen, then taken out and microwaved as need to keep the cake as fresh as possible.

This will vary but we recommend eating our baked goods within 3 days. Placing them in airtight container will help preserve freshness.
