Our recipes shouldn't take the place of your doctor's recommendations. Certainly everything needs to be eaten in moderation. If you can't have any sugar, perhaps you can use Splenda in place of the sugar.

These recipes are not for diebetics, they have sugar. You can do better than this. I signed up because I can't have sugar. Show me deserts without sugar.

You can replace the sugar with an all NATURAL sweetener called "Stevia". I have used it for years. Very good and it does not leave any aftertaste like some artificial sweeteners.
