a baking good time

Gluten free queen and chef Rowie Dillon wants more Australians to get a taste of the “Big Cake Bake”, the Red Cross’s most delicious community fundraiser in October.

As a Big Cake Bake ambassador, Rowie’s determined to prove a chocolate cake without flour can be just as terrific as the real deal.

She wants everyone to get the chance to join the thousands of bake-offs and afternoon teas around the nation for the annual fundraiser’s sixth year.

“Having friends who are gluten or dairy free isn’t a hassle anymore as you can make something absolutely delicious with a little know how and experimenting,” Rowie said.

“That means more people can bake and be spoiled with some treats, all for a good cause.”

Registrations are now open to take part in the Big Cake Bake which culminates in a national celebration on October 27. Events can be held at any time throughout October.

“This is a fun and social way to make a difference and you can feel good knowing your efforts will help people overcome crisis in Australia and beyond, whether that’s a hot meal for the homeless or help for someone when disaster strikes.”
