My goal this past Christmas. Bake desserts that everyone can enjoy - my niece and nephew have egg/nut/dairy allergies and I thought they would get a kick that we all shared the same desserts instead of the usual "This is for you, and this is for us".
I baked the chocolate cake with the butter icing and carrot cake cream cheese frosting. The chocolate cake was deliciious - in fact, it tasted no different than the usual cake my mom makes. The butter icing was good but the cream cheese frosting on the carrot cake was exquisite. The carrot cake, half the group liked it, the other half so-so but I think this was because it was a carrot versus the recipe. Carrot cakes are like fruit cakes... a love or hate relationship I think.
The info in this book is translatable for other recipes. I converted a Best of Bridges ginger cake recipe into a dairy/egg free dessert. Success. I have converted that dairy free cream cheese frosting by using actual dairy products - it actually tasted NO DIFFERENT than the dairy free version. It must be thanks to the better quality non-dairy products out there and HATS OFF TO KELLY RUDNICKI - you've done a great job. I passed the book on to my niece and nephew as they now have a plethora of desserts to do up with their friends that all can equally enjoy.

If I had to choose one allergy cookbook, this would be the one. I have tried many of the recipes and every single one turned out fabulous. I give it a 5 star rating because it includes colour pictures of the food, so it's visually appealing as well. All other allergy cookbooks I've seen do not have good quality pictures like this book. One of the main features of the book that prompted me to buy a second copy for my mother, were the sections on ingredient substitutes, a list of allergy friendly brands, tips and hints for parties, a section about reading labels, and a page about anaphylaxis. I have read many food allergy recipe books and this one by far is the best when it comes to the quality of the recipes and the useful hints about allergies. The book is not simply a recipe book, rather it's tailored to families living with life threatening allergies. I would recommend this book to anyone living with dairy, egg, peanut, or tree nut allergies.

I purchased this book just over a year ago for my son who is anaphylactic to all dairy products, peanuts, tree nuts and eggs. I can now make treats for my son's school and for him to take to birthday parties. I'm always the designated dessert maker at family gatherings to ensure my son can eat desserts. Our extended family all love the recipes! Thank you Kelly!
