Blackcurrant Mousse Cake with chocolate and egg free meringue
Blackcurrant Mousse Cake with chocolate and egg free meringue
This little blackcurrant party on a plate is dairy free, egg free, nut free and gluten free :). If gluten is ok in your house, just swap the cake for any traditional vanilla cake or sponge which suit your allergies. I have used the delicious blackcurrant powder from Sujon. It is a significant undertaking in full, awesome if you want a fancy dessert, but any of the items on it’s own is also fab! My favourite part is the meringues, they are white with flecks of blackcurrant on the outside, but when you break them open, that are a beautiful purple inside and bursting with blackcurrant flavour.

This Egg Free, Dairy Free Caesar Salad is egg free, dairy free, nut free, and easily adapted (as I did) to be gluten free.
Sujon Product Review
Sujon Product Review
I’ve been enjoying Sujon berries for a number of years now, and had tried their blackcurrant powder a few years back, so I was pretty excited to be given some to try out and see how it might work with allergies. Although lots of people take this powder for health reasons: supporting muscle performance, reducing fatigue and supporting the cardiovascular system (see Sujon’s website for more information about this), I was interested to see how the powder would work in baking, and everyday allergy-friendly recipes.
Gluten Free Cornflake Crusted Chicken
Gluten Free Cornflake Crusted Chicken
This Gluten Free Cornflake Crusted Chicken is super crunchy and is also dairy free, egg free, and nut free. I used Hubbards gluten free cornflakes, but anything crunchy will do! I served it with steamed rice, veges and a spicy soy sauce (granted, the sauce wasn’t a huge hit with the kids haha but I really enjoyed it!)
Dairy, Egg and Gluten Free Chocolate Strawberry Brownies
Dairy, Egg and Gluten Free Chocolate Strawberry Brownies
These Dairy, Egg and Gluten Free Chocolate Strawberry Brownies were made using the super yummy chocolate mix from Hunter Gatherer Gourmet, but I have included a recipe for my own chocolate brownies (recipe here) if you aren’t able to source this or can’t tolerate nuts. It is layered up with a soft strawberry flavoured ‘cream’. It does set firm in the fridge if you want a more structured look, but I love the soft, gloopy, chocolate-strawberry mish-mash.

Funwithallergies is a blog where I hope to show that having children with allergies doesn't mean food and life has to be boring! I'm Malena, solo Mum to 3 beautiful girls with varying levels of allergies. I have anaphylaxis to spinach as well as a serious dairy and beef allergy, plus I was a chef and pastry chef for more than 10 years prior to having children so I feel I have a lot to offer!
