I have a customer that is diabetic and wants me to make a carrot cake with cream cheese frosting made of of splenda? Is that even possible to not add powdered sugar? It just sounds like a terrible mess and I am afraid its gonna taste awful and she will serve it to her guest and have my name on it. Any advice???

Not only is it possible, it's delicious!

A few years ago when I was low-carbing, I used to make cream cheese frosting to go on top of a Lemon-Ginger cake made from cannellini beans, LOL!

8oz. cream cheese
1 stick of butter
1 tsp. vanilla
1/2 cup + 2 Tb. Splenda (pourable - not from packets)

I used to love this stuff...it didn't taste diet in any way!

Some people think Splenda has an after-taste, some even get headaches from sugar substitutes...I never had an issue.

APourable that you buy s box of splenda and pour it from the box to not sit there and open packets of it.

You're welcome Katiegirl14...I hope you like it.

 

kazita is right, don't open packets to equal the amount needed...it doesn't measure the same, so the level of sweet will be too much.

Buy the granulated Splenda, in a box or large bag.
