At the time I was surprised and had never had problems with them myself. I am gutted that it seems to have begun to be a problem for me - I love spicy food. However, it may make sense of why a Free From Christmas pudding badly affected me last year. <br /><br />It needs further investigation, but my suspicions have been building, since the porridge incident and since using a ready made gluten free cooking sauce, which contained a LOT of cinnamon. However, I may be jumping to conclusions, you never know!! I'm not throwing in the towel just yet, but am going to let my gut heal a bit before trying again.dairy free baby and mehttp://www.dairyfreebabyandme.blogspot.co.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7820634105388649430.post-60175806585639403282012-12-28T10:14:42.459+00:002012-12-28T10:14:42.459+00:00Thanks Sarah!

I love decorating the cake so much, that next year I may go wartime and decorate a cardboard cake - apparently that's how they 'did' wedding cakes during the war, when food was rationed! Or just go with the Yule log - after all, what's not to love about chocolate? :)dairyfreebabyandmehttp://www.dairyfreebabyandme.blogspot.co.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7820634105388649430.post-61830269287790655902012-12-28T08:56:00.571+00:002012-12-28T08:56:00.571+00:00I'm not a fan of christmas cake but love your ...I'm not a fan of christmas cake but love your decorations :) shame that you had a reaction to the cake, hope you feel better soonSugarpuffishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04568700930605137502noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7820634105388649430.post-83697388447360360922012-12-28T08:54:39.939+00:002012-12-28T08:54:39.939+00:00Thats a wonderful Christmas Cake, I'm really p...Thats a wonderful Christmas Cake, I'm really pleased you got to make one with baby. I'm intrigued by your spice sensitivity. I too had a completely dairy and gluten free day yesterday but did make a tagine containing cinnamon and ginger and a slice of yule log with spices. This morning I'm suffering and I'm scratching my head as to whats caused it. I'm sure it may be a build up of unusual non dairy and gluten foods, or it could be the fact for the first time in years I've had more than a single glass of alcohol this week. However, a small part of me wonders if it not just little one that suffers when eating dried fruit? <br />I'm very tempted (after finding out what my next appointment with the consultant brings)to investigate a complete exclusion diet starting from the very basics. Less of a New Years resolution and more of a necessary process.<br />Hope you feel better soon, Emma xEmma Louisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07593736553489838630noreply@blogger.com
