Does anyone have a good recipe for a wheat free, egg free, dairy free birthday cake???  Seems like a total impossibility to me!  Also, if you know of a cake frosting with the same restirctions. 

Thanks.

This used to be a sticky and I think I accidentally unstickied it.  This link now is at the top of the allergy forums. 

I think this recipe will work for you.  Spectra (Melanie's) son has an allergy to egg.  The B-day cake she made is free of everything you need it to be.

I am sure she will post.

You can add any paste food colouring to this and it won't change the consistency.

Wow, sounds like me 3 months ago when I was in desperate need of  a recipe lol.  I find this recipe is great, but it really doesn't rise/grow during baking.  So if you want a decent size cake I'd double the ingredients.

Thanks for the Bday cake recipe.  Even if she won't eat it at least we will get to see her make a mess of herself without having to worry about any reaction.

Hehe, yeah, that's what I did.  I put it in front of him, the whole cake, so he could play with it.  I bought another cake for everyone else that tasted much better lol.
