This delicious Diabetic Birthday Cake Recipe has a sugar free vanilla cake with sugar free chocolate frosting. A decadent and tasty dessert for everyone!
What is it about Birthday cakes that makes them so special and delicious? It’s just 2-3 layers of sponge cake and some frosting on top. To me, they’re my favorite ones.
I guess these kinds of desserts are more about nostalgia. I still remember blowing the candles in the presence of my loved ones. Of all the childhood memories one may have, blowing the candles on your birthday cake will always be one of them.
This amazing Diabetic Birthday Cake Recipe is super easy to make, uses regular ingredients and everybody will love it.
I made it last night and gave it to my husband and my in-laws, they were drooling and complimenting on how great it tasted. When I told them that this cake was sugar-free they couldn’t believe it. Of course, they went for seconds.
I can imagine adjusting your diet must be hard since everything has so much ADDED sugar! including things one may not think of, for instance: spaghetti sauce, bread, yogurt (even the non-flavored Greek one), BBQ Sauce, dried fruits, etc.
ThisDiabetic Birthday Cake Recipe is so delicious because it has a spongy and very moist vanilla cake and a fudgy and addicting chocolate fudge frosting that is finger-licking good.
Last week I made a Diabetic Lasagna Recipe that would go great as the main course of your party.
I used Swerve sweetener which is a great sugar substitute for the sponge cake part. You can also use Splenda baking blend or any of the usual sugar replacements you are used to cooking with.
ThisDiabetic Birthday Cake Recipe is on the small side. It’s only 6 inches in diameter, which is perfect for a small gathering. If you are expecting a large party, simplydouble the recipe and use a 9″ mold.
I hope you can try this delicious Diabetic Birthday Cake Recipe at home. If you do, please upload a pic on Instagram and tag me @Livingsweetmoments or use the hashtag #LivingSweet.

Yes, you can. Just think about your portion sizes and how often you have them – you could also try eating your desserts with some fruit, such as berries, to make them more filling and nutritious. And to help you save time and space out your portions, most cakes and breads can be frozen for later.
Because of this, when consumed in moderate amounts, Angel Food Cake does not affect blood sugar levels. People with diabetes can safely eat Angel Food in moderate amounts because it doesn't have simple carbohydrates and sugars, meaning that it won't cause a sudden or significant spike in blood sugar levels.
Yes, you can eat cake if you have diabetes—and you can also eat any other dessert you enjoy. The key to keeping blood sugar levels low is to portion out the slice, pair it with protein, fat and/or fiber to help slow glucose spikes, and enjoy the cake soon after a balanced meal.
A little sweet treat is OK. If you're at a wedding, for instance, you can have a small slice of cake -- very small. Just substitute it for another starchy carb you might eat, like a small potato or a piece of bread. If you really have a sweet tooth, choose desserts, candy, and sodas made with sugar substitutes.
Peanut butter contains essential nutrients, and it can be part of a healthful diet when a person has diabetes. However, it is important to eat it in moderation, as it contains a lot of calories. People should also make sure their brand of peanut butter is not high in added sugar, salt, or fat.
The combination of flour, sugar, and dairy found in most high-carb desserts can contribute to blood sugar spikes, making diabetes harder to manage. For example, a single serving of strawberry cheesecake may contain more than 30 grams of carbohydrates.
Cheesecake has a glycemic index of 34, while cake has a glycemic index of 64. This means that cheesecake will not cause blood sugar levels to spike as much as the cake.
