Sorry to disappoint you, but sugar turns into fat. Not good for you, if you're trying to lose weight... Unfortunately we all have to give ip the sweet things but totally worth it in the end!
Not true. I love sweets and love baking. I've lost 50lbs and didn't stop enjoying treats..0 -
I prefer the cake mix and can of Pumpkin recepie. It has lots of fiber and it is about 150 calories per muffin when you make 16.
Love these!0 -
I do it every time and it is wonderful. Last night I actually used it for gluten free cake mix and it was great.0

I haven't done diet soda with cake mix, but I have used Egg Beaters and unsweetened applesauce in lieu of eggs and oil and it was very moist and delicious.0

First off, thanks for posting about this. I would love to have an alternative way of making a cake for when I decide to have it, and I am sure that the time will come. Contrary to some of the posts about the horrors of having cake, I think we can each make our own decisions on when to splurge and on what. Being on MFP is a way of teaching us how to manage what we eat and keeping within limits and keeping it reasonable.
I will keep this idea on my bulletin board for the upcoming holidays.0 -

I recently discovered the diet soda and cake mix. I personally mixed a can of diet orange soda from Publix (made with Splenda) and a box of yellow cake. I personally thought it was more moist and dense than regular cake and would choose it over a traditionally baked cake any day.
Also, this weekend I tried a different recipe: a can of pumpkin puree and a box of spice cake. Made muffins instead of a cake and sprinkled a tiny bit of cinnamon sugar on top of each muffin and they were amazing. Made 12 muffins at 170 calories a piece. My husband wants me to go get ingredients to make more ASAP.0 -
Saving this for when I have more time to read recipies.0
