Any good cake/sweet recipes for egg/dairy/milk allergy child?

[agoodbook]

Hi, just asking for advise- helping DD with DGS' birthday party - one of the littlies is egg/milk/dairy intolerant. We have covered most of the savoury stuff, but would love a couple of sweet things . Can I use cocoa powder for chocolate rice crisps? anything similar that anyone can recommend?

How about these fairy cakes www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle/2014/may/31/gluten-free-egg-free-dairy-free-chocolate-fairy-cake-recipe-susanna-booth

You could make rice crispy cakes with dairy free chocolate or flapjacks with dairy free margarine.

I have an allergic DC and I would have given you the worlds largest hug for even trying! To be honest if you can contact the mum and ask her for a recipe she will probably say don´t be daft I´ll bring x,y or z but thanks for being so nice.

I buy dairy free chocolate buttons from the free from section. Melt and put a teaspoonful at the bottom of one of those small cake cases, push in a marshmallow drop a blob of chocolate on top of the marshmallow and top with a skittle.

This cake is really awesome and is totally vegan (no animal products) if you use water as the liquid. I grew up eating it and got lots of compliments on it at DD's birthday last week. :)

I'd leave out the espresso powder for kids!

It's fairly easy to get vegan black chocolate.

Bananas make a good binder, so you can make stuff with bananas without any eggs.

This makes very nice muffins. You can add vegan chocolate chips to make it more of a treat.

3 very ripe bananas
50g coconut butter
100g sugar
125g almond powder
125g flour
1 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda

Pre-heat oven to 180 degrees.

In a large bowl, mash the bananas with a fork till soft. Add coconut butter and sugar and cream together.

In a separate bowl, combine together the flour, almond powder, salt, and baking soda. Combine with the banana mixture, stirring gently just to combine.

Grease or line a muffin pan, and fill each muffin about 2/3 full with batter. Bake for about 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into a muffin comes out clean.

Thank you for the fairy cake recipe. I have looked through the vegan recipes, but its mostly savoury. We have already sourced some things- luckily she is not gluten allergic, so I will be making peanut butter and banana sandwiches as well - cantkeep Her Mum does a lot, but I have the time and love cooking ! Just now trying to find a good substitute for cheese in the multi veg muffins I make for DGS :)

these are nice too

Just google vegan cakes and you will get loads. Sainsbury's have a good free from range or you could go to a health food shop if you want to shop buy a ready made cake,

Ooh- while I was posting, more replies :) Thank you so much!!

These are nice too. I usually make them, make a well in the center and fill with jam. They get consumed very, very quickly. Could make with chocolate chips too.

225g almond meal
50g brown sugar
1 tbsp ground flax seed mixed with equal amount of water
50g coconut butter
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt

Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Stir together all ingredients. Mix well.

Scoop onto cookie sheets. Bake 8-13 minutes or until lightly browned.

Liara they look lovely - actual birthday cake is sorted, just wanted a few treats for her :)

I make these - vegan brownies and they go down pretty well.

That's really lovely of you, I'm sure she will appreciate it (and if not I'm sure the others will eat them!)

Oh thanks enormouse thats the one I found, and was keeping in reserve in case I didn't get any replies :) good to know they are nice !

They're really nice good, I add a little more water than the recipe suggests though. You can tart them up a little by adding dairy free choc chips.

Here's my vegan cornflake cake recipe

Thanks onykahonie that looks like the recipe I was going to do with rice crispies , so good to know :)

No probs. I also have a vegan tiffin recipe, which is pretty good, if I say so myself!

My dss is allergic to eggs, dairy and nuts so I always make this chocolate cake / fairy cakes:
370g SR flour
6 tbsp cocoa
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
30 ml white / clear vinegar
180ml vegetable oil
500ml water
2 tsp vanilla essence.

1. Combine dry ingredients
2. Combine wet ingredients
3. Add wet to dry mix quickly and thoroughly
4. Bake in 2 sandwich tins (lined or greased with oil) or 24 fairy cake cases for 40 mins (big cake) / 15-20 mins (fairy cakes) at 180 degrees.

I usually decorate with chocolate icing and mini marshmallows

It's so moist and lovely I make it as my standard chocolate cake / fairy cakes now as I think it tastes way better than usual eggs/butter/flour recipes - and loads cheaper too!

Thats the sort of recipe I like - simple instructions ! many thanks wherehave

Someone mentioned marshmallows,...but they are made from egg white so avoid those

thanks for that pumpkin

If the child is ok with soya then you can simply substitute with soya milk and soya spread where milk or butter features in any recipe (one without eggs!!!)

It's dead simple to make butter icing with soya spread, and honestly doesn't compromise the taste, I should mention here, and this is very important, if you do make icing, and have used the bag icing sugar previously and made butter icing with it, it maybe contaminated.

I mean contaminated in the same way when some way a jar of jam gets if someone take jam out of jar with a clean knife, spreads it on their buttered bread, the goes back for more jam with same knife.

The cheaper marshmallows are not made with egg white

Icing sugar may contain egg, be careful using it.
You can make s'mores using rich tea biscuits and cheap marshmallows. Sandwich a marshmallow between two biscuits and microwave for 10 seconds. The marshmallow will expand, squash it down between the biscuits. Add jam if you like and you've got a jammy dodger!
