My mom is on a strict eating program and cannot have sugar or flour. She tells me she can have sprouted whole wheat berries, sprouted flax seed, whole oats, whole wheat (not whole wheat flour), sprouted barley.
I started doing these cakes and she just loves them but knows she can't ever have one..... 
Can anyone help me so I can suprise her?????
I would be so grateful!!!!!!
would she be able to eat the flour if you gridned it yourself from the wheat berries?
I suppose. As long as it is the wheat berries. Ok so I need to look into how to grind up wheat berries and then maybe use a artificial sweetener for the sugar?
Do you have whole foods supermarkets in your area? You might be able to find stuff like that there.
Can you mom have spenda? If not there are a few other sweeteners that you can use.
Brown Rice Syrup, Agave both grain based sweetener.
The other thing you can do is look for Gluten Free Recipes on the net. I have a few but their use Sugar or Spenda. Maybe 1 uses Honey, I would have to took it up. Gluten Free, means using white and brown rice Flour, potatoe starch and corn starch and a few other types of flours.
But you can get some great recipes if you look up allergy baking. It's amazing sometimes how you can make a cake that is almost free of everything.
Let me know if any of these are options and I can try to help some more.
Good Luck.
There's a magazine I love that I get recipe inspirations from called: Living Without.
As someone also mentioned: Whole Foods. They some coupons at the checkout counter, a booklet, (grab them before you shop). There's a coupon for a pre-made Gluten free/Wheat Free cake mix.
As far as sweetner, Stevia goes a LONG way and doesn't have an after taste or is health-questionable like splenda. Agave nectar is good.
Check out different types of Flour like soy or brown rice.
Good luck!
OH MY GOSH! YOU ARE ALL SO AWESOME! I'm really excited. I can't wait to get started on this for her! She will love it!
THANK YOUUUUUUUU!
MamaBerry have you found Stevia in any other form other than the green powder? I use it in tea and some reg. cooking that calls for sweetener that you cannot really see.
I have not used it in a cake and would think it might make it somewhat un-appetizing?

here is a recipe for a choc. cake with no flour and only a tsp. and a half of sugar.....don't see why you couldn't use a substitute?
hi ther u can also do a google serch for vegitarian diabetic cake recipes or vegan diabetic cake recipes as they use barley,soya,rice buckwheat ,potato flour etc (u can get htese ingredience at a health food store) and the diabetic part is for the lack of sugar good luck xoxoxox 
Boy tonight seems to be the night for allergies and food problems.
Stevia is available at your local grocery store in a powdered form. It is much sweeter than sugar and is an herb and does not fool around with your glycemic index. No reaction whatsoever on diabetics. I live on it but I am told that it has a slight licorice flavour, I don't notice that. When baked you don't taste it at all.
Brown rice syrup is malted and reacts a little but is nice too. There are various evaporated cane juices but all of these have sugars that react with diabetics. Stevia will not in any way shape or form and it is not a chemical. It is a dehydrated herb.
Secondly, flours are pretty much interchangeable. So you can use spelt, quineoi, amaranth, and I forget the rest of the grains at the moment. You can use soy and then rice if you are unable to locate the others.
Spelt is unoticeable in your cooking. Wheat is the only grain that we have mass produced & synthetically produced at the expense of the others to the point where some bodies don't acknowledge it as a food.
You might find that she has no problems with other flours and your baking will not suffer.
Good luck.
Oh, spelt (one of the best in my opinion) and the other flours made of grains are available at any health food store and probably in your local grocery store if they have a health food location.
