This giveaway is now over.
When my son Joshua was first diagnosed with food allergies I remember feeling like I had no clue how I was going to feed him. I’ve tried many recipes over the years with some flops as well as many successes.
While I mostly cook from scratch it is sometimes nice to be able to purchase a baking mix to be easily able to make a safe dessert for my whole family.
Enter Betty Crocker to the rescue.

Now, Gluten Free baking gets even easier (and tastier!) with two all-new additions to the delicious line of Betty Crocker Gluten Free baking products – introducing Gluten Free Sugar Cookie mix and All-Purpose Gluten Free Rice Flour Blend.
Smart moms already trust the great taste of Betty Crocker Gluten Free Brownie, Cookie and Cake mixes that the whole family can enjoy, and now beginner-to-expert bakers can use mixes or create from scratch delicious recipes year-round!
So why are Gluten Free moms choosing Betty Crocker?
- Taste – Our consumers rave about the great taste of our Gluten Free products. Check out some of the great comments here.
- Shareable – You can make one dessert for the whole family.
- Normalcy – You can feel “normal again” baking for your family just like before you went gluten free.
Sounds pretty good, right?
I am looking forward to trying out the gluten-free rice flour blend when it becomes available. It would be much easier to use a pre-made blend than making my own, especially for times when I want to make a quick dessert. (Like for the recipe at the end of this post.)
Now, if you’re going to do any gluten-free baking it’s a good idea to have the right tools.
I was sent a baking set and cake pan just like the one pictured above, and I would love to be able to send you one, too. All you have to do is enter below for a chance to win the prize pack pictured above.

You can grind flax seed in a blender and then store in the refrigerator.
The flax seed and water are a replacement for 2 eggs which can be used if egg allergy isn't an issue.
Regular butter can also be used if a dairy allergy isn't an issue either.
