Does anyone have a good sugar free dessert that you do at a show? Thanks,:balloon:
 
you can do a search because i know this topic has come up with diabetics and such.

my MIL makes in her trifle bowl (for a diabetic friend), she lines the sides with sugar free (SF) graham crackers, then SF vanilla pudding, graham crackers, slices strawberries or bananas, then SF chocolate pudding, SF cool whip.

Its yummy and no one knows it is SF except her friend who is diabetic.

I am sure there are other recipes, but this in the trifle bowl is amazing. I get a lot of WOWs.

Good luck

Any of the sugar free puddings are yummy. But doesn't make much of a show. Maybe chop up sugar-free cookies and candies to go with them, and add sugar-free ice cream too?
 
Do a trifle with Sugar Free ingredients:
Angel Food Cake
Pudding or Jello or yogurt
Cool Whip
Fruit
Maybe add some toasted nuts on top

Hree's the Trifle recipe book that Harriet and someone else (sorry I don't remember who else contributed) did for us earlier this year with some good ideas that you can change around.
