Celebrating a gluten free birthday

Today is Clemmie's birthday.

I was just too busy to trial and error a cake recipe so I resulted into purchasing a cake mix by 1 2 3 Gluten Free called Devil's Food Cake Mix! I found those at Little Giant located at Causeway Bay.
1 2 3 Gluten Free also has Buckwheat Pancakes mix which is very awesome. My kiddies love those. 

I was cheating a bit cause I couldn't find palm shortening anywhere?! ... I mean anywhere in Hong Kong that is. I even looked at gourmet food stores and found no palm shortening. So I used a whole stick of butter instead. Clemmie could actually go on dairy rotation, but not recommended.

And I used cream cheese for frosting.

For frosting:

1 pack of cream cheese usually 200g
1 to 2 Tablespoons of agava depending on how sweet you want your frosting to be
1 Tablespoon of rice milk just to loosing the cream cheese and make it batter like
6 small strawberries chopped up and add to the mixture

For the cake batter I did change up the recipe from the box a bit.

For cake batter I added these to the premixed flour:

1 stick of butter usually 200g
1/8 cup of chia seed
1/8 cup of flax seed meal
1/2 cup of warm water
1/2 cup of brown sugar
4 Tablespoons of agava
3 cup of rice milk

Pre heat oven at 375 F. 

Soak the chia seed and flax seed meal in 1/2 cup of warm water.

Butter beat till creamy with a mixer. Add brown sugar and beat. Add chia and flax mix and beat.

Add 1 cup of rice milk and beat. Slowly add in the cake mix.

Then add in more rice milk. Then more cake mix.

Repeat until it is thick and gooey.

I have a convection oven. It takes 30 minutes at 375 F.
