DIABETIC SPRING FLING LAYERED WHITE CAKE



Diabetic Spring Fling Layered White Cake image

White cake layered with strawberries and Apricot preserves. I searched the internet for a cake that I could make as a special treat (birthday) for a good friend that is diabetic. He thought it was wonderful and was quite flattered that I took the time to make it. This is not difficult to make, but there are alot of steps to it. I am not "used to" the taste of the fat free cream cheese, and quite honestly, do not like the frosting. UPDATE: My daughter used this cake recipe and "Absolutely Sugar Free" Frosting (recipe #123602) to do a wedding cake - Awesome together!!! Much better than the cream cheese frosting listed with the recipe!
