I found this one at church last night. Elijah is allergic to eggs, milk, and peanuts. He can have the duncan hines moist deluxe. One of my deacons said he makes cupcakes by adding a can of diet sprite to his mix-thats it! I will try it and let you know what I think!

Before you go trick or treating this Halloween, bring your little monsters, devils, angels and fairies to a party just for them!
