I love finding blogs that are about allergen free cooking!!!
I don’t heat the chocolate at all. I put the coconut oil in a glass measuring cup on the stove burner on warm just till it’s liquid. Then I add all the ingredients in a seperate bowl. I’ve tried mixing the maple syrup and the carob powder together, then the coconut oil. I’ve tried adding one each to the oil. I’ve tried it right off the stove (warmer) and I’ve tried letting it cool more to room temp (but still liquid). Sometimes it mixes, sometimes it doesn’t. I’m lost…!
I cannot get the chocolate coating to blend for the peppermint patties. What am I doing wrong?
This website is literally amazing! Keep it up, I just bookmarked you!
lovely recipes
Thank you Cara for the wonderful recipes you share with us. We are working to be gluten free, dairy free and egg free as well as low glycemic. Have you ever considered adding a low glycemic category to your recipes? Again, many thanks.
cara, I’m sorry for calling you carla
carla, what kind of sugar did you use for your pita bread recipe, just trying to figure out what went wrong.
carla, I am having a terrible time making the pita bread, I did not use superfine brown rice flour, and I used your flour blend. did not rise properly and so on, I added more flour and yeast. Should I start over. Please help.
Hi Linda! Sorry to hear you had troubles with this recipe 🙁 If your dough did not rise properly either your water was too hot or too cold for the yeast. Usually you need the temp somewhere between 95-110 degrees. And if you are confident it was, then you might have had old yeast. The finely ground rice flour (or lack of) should not have affected the yeast rise (which, because it is gluten-free) will not rise beautifully the way gluten flour will. Hopefully this helps!
Cara – i just made the Vegan Dark Chocolate Strawberry Cream Truffles….they were amazing! I really love your site and always look forward to all of your recipes! Thanks again!

Cara, I just wanted to say again how much I love your blog. For this reason I have nominated you for a Very Inspiring Blogger Award (see http://missmarzipan.com/2012/11/16/very-inspiring-blogger-award-aka-happy-dancing-on-the-inside/). I truly wish you all the best! 🙂
I really love your cheese cracker snack but have been going crazy looking for a pastry cutter to get uniform little crackers. Please tell me where I can purchase one. Pretty please. Tracy
Hi Tracy! You can find the pastry wheel at any cooking section of any store, like Target or WalMart, etc. Here is a link for one online just in case though: http://www.amazon.com/Wilton-2103-355-Pastry-Wheel/dp/B001BO76HO/ref=sr_1_6?s=home-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1348842380&sr=1-6&keywords=pastry+cutters
Good luck! xo
