I looked at my life one day, and asked myself where my happiness lies...this is a deep question with a not so deep answer. CUPCAKES!! I have recently found a love for baking. Especially gluten-free baking, my husband is gluten intolerant which can have it's difficulties. I am always on the run for new ideas and decorating cupcakes. So I decided to start my at-home cupcake business. It's in the works, but I hope to keep working to make it better and build my exposure.

New year, new goals.
I got a Kitchenaid mixer from my parents for Christmas!! I'm so excited, now I'm really going to start baking like crazy! I have so many recipes I want to try out (pies, cupcakes, cakes, etc.) the list is never ending. I have a lot of friends that are gluten-free, so in order for me to make gluten-free friendly baked goods, I've been looking at prices of flour (it is very expensive if you buy it at grocery stores). Since I bake so much, I go through it quite frequently. I have checked amazon.com, and various blogs on trying to be more cost friendly when it comes to buying gluten-free flour. A lot of places I've read have said mixing your own all purpose baking flour is the best cost-friendly option. Here are some places I have checked that sound legit when it comes to knowing a thing or two about gluten-free flour mixtures:
Gluten-free flour mixtures (several recipes).
Make your own all-purpose flour mix.
Gluten-free Cooking School
These are just a few that I looked up on Google. I'm going to pick one and see which one tastes the best, and also has the right texture. I know my husband said to limit the brown rice flour because it tends to accelerate the digestive process (if you know what I mean). I'm glad he's around to tell me important information like that, since he's been gluten-free for a couple years now. Happy New Year and happy baking!
