Question: I need help with making a diabetic birthday cake so please help! Read more..?
If somebody could offer some ideas.. I want to get an angelfood cake. But I was going to use a lite cool whip topping, that includes cool whip, vanilla pudding mix, and milk. And I was going to cut up strawberries and put them on top.
Any more ideas????

Answers:

If u are making this for a diabetic i would suggest getting everthing sugar free. An angel food cake from the store will have sugar diabetics cant have sugar. Im not sure if cool whip has a sugar free recipe but i know u can usually find sugar free cans of whip cream. Maybe see if there is a sugat free cake mix and bake it. Add sugar free whip topping and sliced strawberrys.



This is a recipe for Grilled Angel Food Cake from the Mayo Clinic:

Serves 6

Ingredients
1 1/2 cup strawberries, chopped
3/4 cup chopped rhubarb
1/2 cup sugar
6 tablespoons water
1 3/4 teaspoons vanilla
1/8 teaspoon cinnamon
1 prepared angel food cake, cut into 6 pieces
3/4 cup reduced-fat whipped topping

Directions
Prepare a hot fire in a charcoal grill or heat a gas grill or broiler. Away from the heat source, lightly coat the grill rack or broiler pan with cooking spray. Position the cooking rack 4 to 6 inches from the heat source.

To make the sauce, in a saucepan, combine the strawberries, rhubarb, sugar, water, vanilla and cinnamon. Cook on medium heat until the mixture just starts to boil, about 5 minutes. Remove the saucepan from the heat and set aside.

Place the angel food cake toward the edge of the grill rack where there is less heat or on the broiler pan. Grill or broil until each side turns brown, about 1 to 3 minutes.

Place the angel food cake on individual serving plates. Top each piece with 1/4 cup of the strawberry-rhubarb sauce and 2 tablespoons of the whipped topping. Serve immediately.
