"This is from the American Diabetes Association. I needed to make my DFIL snacks for his trip down to FL and this was lovely!! My DFIL has a BIG sweet tooth (despite being diabetic) and he latched onto this like he would never eat again!!"

I didn't know diabetics could eat so many carbs. My dad is diabetic and my mother won't let me make this for him because of the carbs. I think I'll do some more reading on Diabetes.

This turned out great! I am always trying to watch my sugar and I use the sugar-free syrup regularly so this looked good to me. I made a double batch and am glad I did. Thanks for posting!
