This recipe is pretty good for a sugar-free cake. I made it for my son's second birthday. The guests were very impressed when I told them it was sugar-free. I did use whole wheat flour instead of all-purpose, so it had more of a muffin texture than cake. But it was good. If you do use the all-purpose flour like the recipe says, it probably is very nice and fluffy.
