Buy this book if you want recipes that use Splenda products. Don't buy it if you want recipes that are low-calorie, low-fat, or even low-sugar (some contain a Splenda product but are also loaded with corn syrup or molasses). The occasional nod is made to calorie reduction where no particular work is required to adjust the recipe, for example replacing the regular milk in a recipe with low-fat milk. But by and large, nothing else has been done to standard baking recipes except to swap some Splenda product or other for sugar.

I bought the book for sugar-less and no sugar added recipes. Many/most of the recipes had corn syrup (sugar), maple syrup (sugar) and such so the book will not be helpful for what I bought it for.

There might be a total of 7 recipes in this whole book that are even acceptable for diabetics. What a waste of money.

The recipes are interesting and fill the hunger for "sweet" desserts for those of us who must limit their sugar intake. However, some of the baking instructions leave parts out -- baking temps, for example. As I am an experienced baker, I didn't have much trouble with this. Also, I found the times not exactly correct for my oven -- the book has them much too long. Despite these drawbacks, I would still recommend purchase of this book.

I can still eat the good stuff and keep it within my diet parameters.
You sent the book so quickly and it was packed very well also.

This wonderful book is chock full of delicious recipes and NO sugar. I tried the Cranberry Cooler and it was lip smacking delicious with low calories! Great for diabetics or those trying to avoid becoming one.

This is a Great book, it has lot od great recipes and just over all well written. it is a well made book and has many pictures to show the recipes. I have made several of them and turned out very good.

I have tried a couple of these recipes and pleasantly surprised. I'm a big fan of Splenda anyway but these recipes are easy and can be done quickly. I do recommend this cookbook.

In this book you will find the traditional american recipes but adding Splenda light sugar. All the recipies has an easy explanation about preparing the drssert. if you like cooking and desserts you must buy this book.
