My daughter, Becca, is also gluten intolerant. She bought a new cookbook, Gluten Free Baking Classics by Annalise G. Roberts. Click here for Becca’s review of the book. Even Ken, who is not gluten intolerant, loved the cupcakes she made. So, I wanted to give the recipe a try, too.
The recipe uses a brown rice, potato starch, tapioca mix, the recipe for which is given in the book. It makes a really good layer cake, that does not crumble apart, and was moist and tasty the second day, too. It actually calls for using a lemon curd in the filling between layers, but I was too lazy to make that. The Lemon Buttercream Frosting was delish, though. This recipe is posted with permission from Annalise (thank you, Annalise!)

That looks delish! I love lemon anything!
Just stopped by to wish you and yours a very merry Christmas.
And oh…I commented the other day under my daughter’s name “Becky”. I have a Becky too. Hahaha! She is home for the holidays and keeps taking over my computer and forgets to sign out of her Google account. Got to love um! LOL

Wow – that’s awesome. I forgot I could make lemon frosting for those times that I can’t find the lemon cake I really like! Thanks for that simple recipe – I know it will come in handy! I’m so glad that this book and these recipes are working out well for you and your daughter! Have a wonderful holiday – I just saw your comment at my site – I’m up waaaay too late as usual. LOL. But I’ve been meaning to make my blogroll rounds so here I am! Better late than never! 🙂

Ooooh, looks awesome!
I am not fond of rice flour, I tend to sub with Besan (chickpea) but I think that would be too heavy for that fluffy cake.
May have to give it a go! And I haven’t used rice flour in 4 years! (Boo has been GF for 8 years)
