Diabetic Dream Desserts contains more than 130 low- and reduced-sugar dessert recipes for cakes, pies, puddings, cookies, dessert breads, and other sweet treats. You'll find dozens of useful tips for creating and converting your own favorite recipes into more healthful versions, and you'll learn just how using sugar and other nutrients can affect your diabetes. Knowing how a wise diet can contribute to your overall good health will help you keep your symptoms under control.
Each recipe in Diabetic Dream Desserts has a complete (per serving) nutritional analysis along with diabetic exchanges. Included are the secrets to making such tasty delights as "Fudge Cake with Raspberry Sauce," "Cherry-Cheese Kugel," "Molasses Oatmeal Cookies," "Triple Berry Sorbet," "Biscuit-Topped Blackberry Cobbler," "Cranberry-Pecan Bread," and more.
Unfortunately, we don't have space in this column for sample recipes, so I'm planning to include some of them in the December 2004 issue of the Cinnamon Hearts website. Diabetic Dream Desserts gets a healthy recommendation for having your cake and eating it too!
