Allergy-Free Cake Recipes

Tasty cakes to make for those with food allergy issues.
ALLERGY-FREE CAKE RECIPE
You will find a recipe for cake that is free of many common allergens, including dairy (as well as eggs, nuts, soy). You'll also find frosting recipes. If you want to follow a favorite recipe, you can substitute rice, soy, or oat milk cup for cup in place of cow's milk. Use dairy-free margarine (many margarines have whey or casein in them; read the ingredients carefully), or light-flavored oil, in place of butter.
NO-EGGS CAKE RECIPE
I have a GREAT no-dairy, no eggs cake recipe: It is from my grandmother, who made it during rationing in WW II. I like to make it in a springform pan, which makes it easy to serve. This recipe will make one "layer.” You can also make cupcakes with it. if you wanted to decorate it, you could make a stencil (like a "1" for a first birthday) and sprinkle the top with confectioners sugar thru a sieve. (Do it just before you serve it for the best effect.) This mixes up in about 10 minutes.
