1st bday cake recipe, what do you think of this one ? (long)

 I've posted here before that I am Celiac (gluten free - confirmed via biopsy).  My son is very slow to take on true solids.  He also got sick the last 3x he had rice.  Skin test showed no allergy, and he does not get sick from my BM when I eat rice.I found this gluten free/rice free/egg free recipe below.  Anything stand out as being "risky"?  Unfortunately, he has been super slow to try anything, so he mostly eats yogurt and purees and breastmilk.  My thought is to bake this tomorrow morning and let him eat a tiny bit Friday.The party is Saturday.  Usually we introduce one food at a time, and I think his gagging may be texture related.  I don't even think he will actually eat cake!  The reason I say this is he ate oatmeal just fine (gluten free oatmeal), but we took a break from it and he started gagging when we introduced oatmeal/texture again. He had barley flour in some baby food, and he did not get sick from that.

    it might just be the texture.  Our son wouldn't touch his birthday cupcake and cried when he got icing on his finger.  This year was a little better- but he still hates the icing.
