Why not use agave sweetener? Very low glycemic index, very natural too!

Don't you think it would be nice to see the SUGAR grams in this dessert? Even though there's a sugar sub used............there is STILL sugar in this recipe. I just do not understand your logic! All Diabetics need to see what the %/grams of sugar there are in ALL RECIPES! "disgruntled"

I love the recipes you have here; but, these days people are realizing how important it is to keep your sugar grams down to at least 15grms a day, as sugar is the major cause of belly fat, and unhealthy conditions. I would think that (and please don't take this wrong way) for diabetic's that that would be a major reason for including it. Could you please consider including that in the nutrition facts? Thank so much, it would help many out so much. Sincerely, Linda
