The Best Gluten Free Confetti Cake

The Best Gluten Free Funfetti Cake - Fluffy, tender gluten free cake that reuses layered tops as cake ball garnishes! Includes baking techniques to create that perfect “just came from the bakery funfetti cake.”

I turned the big dirty thirty a couple weeks back (pisces in the house!?) and it feels so good! Ever since I was a kid, I dreamt of this day. For some reason, in my childhood brain, 30 meant that I was going to be a woman. That I would have it all together. That I was going to be successful. And in most ways, it feels that way or at least leading to that prediction.

For so many years, I would let my stomach succumb to a laundry list of ingredients that made me feel like crap for the sake of pleasing coworkers who rarely knew me or family members that “forgot” that I had a gluten and dairy sensitivity. But not this year! This year, I am making my own damn cake! And the cake will have ingredients that I can fully digest and not feel like crap after! Haha

Having From the Roots just turned 1 yesterday and the website getting a face-lift, I wanted to celebrate with something, fun, fruity, and flavorful. What better way to celebrate than with a drink?

From the Roots has become way more than I have ever imagined. I started out just posting recipes I have created throughout the years and now it has turned into so much more. Within this year, we have been invited to do pop-up events, catered for parties and grand openings for businesses, collaborated with major health product companies, became a brand ambassador for Further Food, Banza, Manitoba Harvest Hemp Foods, and have connected with so many amazing people - YOU!

I couldn’t have done this without YOU, so thank you so much! Well, I could keep rambling, but let’s get to the recipe! I made this into a mock-tail form originally for a Galentine’s Day event. It was such a big hit! But TBH, it would be an even more hit if you added wine or prosecco to it…  But you can do whatever you like! ;)
