Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I think the review by Kathy Anderson, who claimed that the recipes in this book have too many carbohydrates, is unfair and inaccurate. The lengthy, informative, and detailed introduction by Linda Eugene, RD, CDE, explains that "Most of the recipes do not exceed 40 grams of total carbohydrate per serving." Moreover, she discusses at length how diabetics must take a balanced and comprehensive approach to their diet, and taking a splurge on a dessert is always going to require an adjustment elsewhere in one's food intake. Last, she is very oncrete on one crucial point: "The key to including desserts in any meal plan is to focus on portion sizes.... The aim of this book is to offer dessert recipes that taste great. Serving sizes may be smaller, but your sweet tooth will be more satisfied with a small slice of something moist, creamy, and delicious that with a large slice of something dry, bitter, and tasteless." This is a book of desserts, after all--1,001 of them. I haven't made every recipe in this book, but I can vouch for the amazing variety of great recipes here--and for the fact that if you follow the book's directions regarding ingredients, meal planning, and portion control, this book can be a great complement to any diabetes-safe kitchen. Be smart, and enjoy.
