You can probably do most of your baking by replacing granulated sugar and using splenda.





www.splenda.com





Try going online and typing in diabetic recipes. I know Companyscoming- www.companyscoming.ca has two diabetic cook books where you can download recipes.





You also might try your local diabetic association.





Many stores now sell diabetic chocolates and candies, they are expensive but they're a nice treat.





You know tho diabetics can have some sugar, they'd actually prefer you have sugar to using aspertane.





Good luck.|||Just goto to this web site www.recipegoldmine.com
