deserts /puddings for diabetic using splenda (or something else other than sugar)

[gybegirl]

Help! Can anyone help me with a couple of receipe suggestions for my dad who's been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. I've bought a pack of splenda and just tried making meringues - but they taste hideous! I'm looking for something for christmas day - preferably something that I can freeze and then pop in the oven at the last minute. Also cakes etc for beforehand.
Thanks very much

banana bread is delicious (its not like bread its like cake) - can he have raisins? I like banana bread with custard (birds powdered custard can be made with sweetener)

I can type the recipe if you like?

Good idea Red Santa. We make that with DD1 quite a bit so no need for a recipe - hopefully. Do you know if you can freeze it (in my attempt to be christmas organised this year I'm freezing everything)?

this is very nice too chocolate and berry roulade - i make mine with cherries

but most desserts on here will be using splenda instead of sugar.

my weight watchers book says for banana bread freezing recommended.

I don't do ww - but i love the recipe for banana bread (i used to do it with sweetener when i was on ww, but now I just use sugar)

Red Santa you are my hero . Thanks so much. The choc and berry roulade sounds great for christmas day (I want something that will look great - to make up for the fact that he'll not be getting his christmas pudding). I'll look at the others too.
