Diet Pop Cake Questions - Regular Pop question

FitCanuckChick

Hi There - Just wondering if anyone has used a regular pop rather than diet pop in the cake mix / diet pop recipe. Made the Diet version last night (used fresca and duncan heinz moist deluxe lemon) - one recipe made 24 cupcakes and oh so light and fluffy (and 85 cals each). But, I realized swapping diet for regular pop would only add 15 or less cals per cupcake (which is still a low cal treat). So 1 cupcake would still be under 100 cals.

I am wondering if you have tried this and they have turned out? Thanks!
