How can I find a Gluten Free Cake that is right for me?

When it comes to gluten free cakes, there are not a lot of options to choose from especially when buying from a local Patisserie. Whether you just want to avoid gluten for health reasons or for a family member to celebrate a special occasion, you’ll need to find a cake that fits your needs. 

Klook.com

Some cakes are specifically designed as gluten-free, meaning they don’t contain any wheat or barley. Others are made with ingredients like rice flour or tapioca starch that can be replaced with gluten free alternatives

Our team is dedicated to helping you find the best gluten free cakes for you! We searched high and low for the best gluten free cakes in town, and we are happy to share this gluten free cake Patisserie with you.

Best Gluten free cakes in Singapore

Patisserie Glacé was established in 2008 in Singapore with the intention of importing the finest pastries from Japan, including Japanese cakes, pies, cookies, and tarts. The cake making is headed up by Chef Tomoko.

Patisserie Glacé

Chef Tomoko and the rest of her team have been directly and passionately engaged in the process of ensuring that all of the items at Patisserie Glacé have the same flavour as they would in Japan ever since the patisserie first opened its doors. The style of Glacé's pastries is consistent with her fundamental convictions, which are that the components must be of the greatest possible quality and include no preservatives; they are creations that a mother would give to her kid.

Glacé’s philosophy of serving products largely decorated with fruit has found favour with the CBD office workers since its inception. Its creations have graced birthdays, weddings, even for Mr Lee’s birthday!

Is Life a Recipe will work for Cakes (well sometimes)!

When we received an email from Patisserie Glacé asking us to take a look at their latest gluten free cakes, we were a little dubious, I mean how good can something taste when you take the fun out of it?

Patisserie Glacé Cake Delivery

As you can see from the Patisserie Glacé box below it came in a solid carboard box and had plenty of internal room for the cake to be placed but more importantly to be removed without spoiling the beautiful gluten free cakes in transit.

Cake Quality of the Highest Order

Patisserie Glacé Gluten-Free Strawberry Decor Cake Delivery
Just look at the overal quality of this cake, from the smooth exterior to the fresh strawberries on top, a delight to see.
Gluten-Free Strawberry Decor Cake Fresh Strawberries
When you cut open the cake you will see how they have created a vertical sponge cake piped with fresh cream and strawberries!
Gluten-Free Strawberry Decor Cake Plated
Now admittedly we could have done a better job with the plating up of this slice of cake and even touched up the strawberry.

Chocolate Cake Anyone?

Patisserie Glacé Gluten-Free Cake Choco
Look at the sheen on that ganache? Two mini macaroons for everyone to fight over!
Gluten-Free Cake Choco Rice Flour Sponge sandwiches
Again with the vertical layering of the sponge only this time its piped with chocolate and cream!
Gluten-Free Cake Choco Plated
The Gluten Free Choco was heavier than the strawberry but we guess that from the chocolate layering.

The Gluten Free Choco was a big hit with the ladies! It also was not overly sweet.

Do they even look like gluten free cakes? They certainly didn’t taste gluten free!

Gluten-Free Cake Choco and Gluten-Free Strawberry Decor Cake

When Patisserie Glacé delivered two gluten free cakes, we were shocked but boy was that the best decision they made because then we really had to review in a battle off between the two gluten free cakes, it set tongues wagging, so who was the ultimate champion out of these two cakes on the Ultimate Cake Off!?

Jude Jude, who says you can’t have your cake and eat it?

Patisserie Glacé the Taste Test

I think both of these cakes should be called head exploding cakes because they are so good. My favourite one was the strawberry and vanilla cake because I really liked the strawberry jello pieces and I love vanilla too.

So light and super moist. I really like it because it is not so sweet, but such a delicious chocolate almost like truffle with like a caramelised coffee overtone. The strawberry vanilla cake comes with like a layered jelly in the inside but made from fresh strawberries. It is just divine.

I was impressed even by the packaging, and then when I opened the box and saw these two stunners, I knew we were onto something special. Incredibly, these are gluten free cakes. Perhaps that's why they are so light, almost a fluffy sponge so not filling at all. Yes, I reckon you could eat a whole one to yourself. I loved the chocolate one because it was quite decadent. Like my wifey said, not sweet just super savoury. And then POW the strawberries hit you with a wonderful citrus hit that is balanced by the layers of delicious vanilla cream. Glace proves that actually you can have your cake and eat it and eat A LOT IF IT!!!

We had some guests over for the evening by chance and not one of them thought they were gluten free cakes! Two of them took the website for future needs as they have family and friend that are gluten intolerant. The ladies all loved the chocolate version, but my personal preference was the strawberry as it was so light and rich. The strawberries were fresh and so sweet.

In the end the Gluten free Cake Choco stole the show!

Congratulations to the crew at Patisserie Glacé for making such incredible gluten free cakes, you really can’t tell the difference! **We are not saying that just because we got paid in cake!**

As you can see the Gluten free cakes passed the Taste Test with flying colours! If anyone else wants to send us cakes feel free to get in touch!

More information about Gluten Free

Here, we will teach you what you need to know about gluten free cakes and make sure that you can enjoy the best gluten free cakes in town, guaranteed!

There is a growing demand for gluten free products, as many people are sensitive to the protein found in gluten. For those who are gluten intolerant or have celiac disease, eating foods that contain gluten can cause serious health problems. Fortunately, there are a number of gluten free cake options available on the market today.

When choosing a gluten free cake, it is important to choose one that is made with certified GF flour. Many grocery stores now carry specialty GF flour blends, which make baking GF cakes easier. However, if you don’t have access to specialty GF flour blends or don’t want to fuss with making them yourself, you can also use all-purpose flour instead. Just be sure to check the ingredients list for any traces of wheat and/or glutens.

What is Gluten?

Gluten is a type of protein found in many food items, including bread, pasta, and cake. It is important to note that gluten can be hidden in many products, so it is important to be aware of the ingredients that you are consuming. People with gluten sensitivity often have trouble digesting this protein and may experience symptoms such as bloating, gas, constipation, and diarrhea. If you are not sure if a product contains gluten or not, please contact the manufacturer for more information.

What are the symptoms of Gluten Intolerance?

The symptoms of gluten intolerance can vary from person to person, but they can include gastrointestinal problems, such as diarrhoea, constipation, and bloating, as well as joint pain and fatigue.

Many people believe that gluten intolerance is a type of food allergy, but this is not always the case. Gluten intolerance is a condition that occurs when the body can’t digest gluten, which is found in many types of bread, pasta, and other foods. Symptoms of gluten intolerance can vary from person to person, but they can include gastrointestinal problems, such as diarrhoea, constipation, and bloating, as well as joint pain and fatigue. If you’re having any of these symptoms and you think you may have gluten intolerance, it’s important to talk to your doctor about it.

Is Gluten free diet necessary for people with Gluten Intolerance?

While a gluten free diet is not always necessary for people with gluten intolerance, it can be a great way to manage the symptoms of the condition. In addition, a gluten free diet can help to reduce the risk of other health problems, such as weight gain and heart disease.

When following a gluten free diet, it is important to be aware of the types of foods that are allowed. Gluten is not present in many vegetables or fruits; however, there are some exceptions. It is also important to watch for foods that may contain traces of gluten (such as malt or wheat flour). Following a gluten free diet can be challenging at first but can be very rewarding over time?

What are the benefits of a Gluten Free Diet?

The benefits of a gluten free diet include the ability to manage the symptoms of gluten intolerance, reduce the risk of other health problems, and enjoy delicious food without the worry of gluten.

A gluten free diet is a popular way to manage the symptoms of gluten intolerance, reduce the risk of other health problems, and enjoy delicious food without the worry of gluten. Gluten is a protein found in many types of grains, including wheat, barley, and rye. People with celiac disease have an immune system problem that causes them to react badly to gluten. Others who are gluten-sensitive may experience symptoms such as bloating, abdominal pain, diarrhoea, and headaches after eating foods containing gluten.

A gluten free diet eliminates all sources of gluten from a person’s diet. This can be a challenge for some people because many foods contain traces of gluten. The benefits of following a gluten free diet include managing the symptoms of celiac disease or gluten intolerance; reducing the risk for developing other health problems such as type II diabetes; enjoying delicious food without worrying about whether or not it contains gluten; and saving money by avoiding expensive specialty foods.
