    I generally make cupcakes these days, and depending on what you ice them with they come out at about 100-200 cals each. Let me know what kind of cake you like and I'll see if I can post a suitable recipe.

    i find it easier to use normal recipes but just change the sugar for something like candarel or tesco granulated sweetner, i then change other ingredients for other lower/healthier things
    i made some coconut macaroons the other week with alternative sweetner and no one had realised til i told them - they tasted exactly the same as normal ones but had way less calories
    it was the martha stewart recipe btw :)

    if you find any good ones please share - looooove baking cupcakes and muffins :D
