I use most regular desert recipes with a sugar substitute called "Splenda!." I heard it bakes well, but I haven't tried it yet and I think I will try it today as an experiment!. It has a taste so close to sugar with zero calories!. Try an angel food cake recipe from scratch with splenda instead!. If you want to do chocolate shavings on your deserts I have just tried Dove chocolates that are sugar free and they taste so good! Five pieces are only 160 calories!. I am starting to experiment more with sugar free to not only maintain my figure, also because I recently found out I am diabetic!. I am just learning to eat an almost sugar free diet and I think diabetic recipes can help anyone who wants to cut back on sugar for any reason!. I hope I was of help!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
