Have you thought of just substituting the sugar in any recipe with Splenda? It tastes really good and you can bake with it too. I lowcarb and only use Splenda and can not tell the difference. You use the same amount that is called for with sugar. HTH

Ice Cream Sandwich Torte

I did the ice cream sandwich torte at a diabetic host's show. I just substituted sugar free ice cream sandwiches, sugar free pudding, and I whipped heavy cream with Splenda (I just added to taste) instead of the whipped cream. We didn't tell the customers it was low-sugar until the end, and no one could tell the difference.

Good luck!

i really like the substitution angle, my recrutier suggested i do the berries'n cream wanton cups and sub the sugar w/spenda and sugar free yougart and cool whip. sounds pretty easy and quick. Can i buy sugar free yougart???
thank you for your replies and good ideas
