Gluten-Free Carrot Cake
Pineapple makes this delicious cake extremely moist. Xanthan gum is a corn-based, gluten-free thickener that can be found on your grocery store's baking aisle. —Taste of Home Test Kitchen

Makes cupcakes for my daughters wedding for the guests who could not have a piece of her wedding cake and they where as popular as the cake. 3 of the 150 guests were Celiac but made 24 and they were all gone at the end of the night.

Absolutely satisfied my craving! Delightfully moist and beautiful balance of spice-to-sweet. This cream cheese frosting was the perfect match. FYI, I didn't have the various flours on hand so I used 2 cups Bob Red Mill's Gluten-Free All-Purpose and about 3/4 cup cornstarch. It rose well and then settled a bit into a dense cake. It's fabulous! Will make again!!

good
grammybear04, I would try it if I were you. Just check to see if your mix already has Xanthum gum in it first. If it does, just omit it in the recipe. Hope this helps.
Does any on know if you can use red mill all purpose gluten free flour instead of the white rice flour, soy flour and potato starch? Would used the same amount only using 2 1/2 cups of the gluten free all purpose. It is costly to have so many different kinds and some not always available in my rural area.
I have a suggestion for substituting for coconut, you can also used ground almonds or even add dried cranberries for part of it also.
The coconut is optional. You can leave it out and the recipe should turn out fine.
Does anyone have an idea for a suitable substitution for the coconut?
