    Sorry i'm sure these are just fine, but associated with heart health and diabetes sounds like an oximoron.

    96 grams of carbs is more than I can eat in a day, I wouldn't call this diabetic. But that is just my opinion. (I am a diabetic)

    just a quick question do you prepare the cake mix as stated on the box? Or just the mix and sprite zero? Probably a dumb question just wanted to make sure I did right.

    1 box Pillsbury Sugar free classic yellow cake mix

    Sugar free products usually have a decent amount of carbs. I recently bought a cake mix (sugar free) that had
    34g of carb per serving......

    Just saying. For those who are diabetic we have to really be careful about sugar free products, they are sugar free but not
    low carb. :sad:
