4.0 out of 5 stars A great way to cut the sugar!, September 7, 1999

This review is from: Diabetic Goodie Book (Paperback)

I found this book to be exactly right. After looking at so many diabetic dessert books that have tons of artificial ingredients or little taste this book is the answer. All the recipes are easy to make and call for every day ingredients. The nutrition facts are easy to follow. A must have for any diabetic that enjoys dessert.
