Is Gluten-Free Sugar-Free dessert possible?

I have a gluten intolerance along with hypoglycemia. I cannot tolerate fruit, honey, sugar, artificial sweeteners, etc. I can tolerate Stevia, but it tastes disgusting to me. I do however love agave nectar, and I have no reaction from it.





Does anyone know of ANY dessert I could make? My wedding is coming up in less than a month, and it would be awesome if I had a cake of my own (or any dessert for that matter).





Any suggestions?

Is Gluten-Free Sugar-Free dessert possible?
I found this recipe for gluten-free flour for baking...





Barbara's Gluten Free Flour Mixture


1 cup brown rice flour


1/4 cup sweet rice flour


1/4 cup tapioca starch


1/4 cup millet flour (You can substitute another flour with this flour.)








i suspect you could use that for a cake that is made like a pineapple cake, using the agave nectar in place of the pineapple





you have a very difficult allergy combination- i bet you're rail thin!





i also found a site that might help you out, http://glutenfreegoddess.blogspot.com/20... its all about baking gluten free.





you might try a health food store as well- maybe they can help you out





the gluten free godess also has this to say... Okay. I know sugar has gotten a bad rap. It’s blamed for all kinds of symptoms. And some individuals may, indeed, be sensitive to too much of it. After a lot of experimenting and personal research, here is what I – personally - think about cane sugar. [If you are allergic to cane because it is in the grass family, you may be able to handle beet sugar, or palm sugar; ask your doctor.]

I know that I am not going to get it right on the first try ,so maybe someone who also knows what they are doing can add to the idea.


My basic idea is a molded mousse using gelatin, flavored whipped cream and egg whites.


The mousse could be served in molded individual portions to the guests and you and your groom would have a larger mold used so you can do the ceremonial "cake cutting "


We of course need a dominant flavor and it needs to plate well.


Let's see where this goes.
