[QUOTE="IanD, post: 17084, member: 6186"] You need to make your own provision for her for parties, so she is not left out, but not harmed by what they give her. I don't cater for children, but I do make special provision for other diabetics. Jellies can be made from gelatine or Vegegel (Vegegel sets on cooling so doesn't need 24 hours notice.) Sweeten with saccharin, Splenda or other non-sugars, or simply add NAS fruit squash or a little smoothie. No-added-sugar Dream Topping is a useful alternative to ice-cream. Mixing jams with apple sauce reduces the sugar content. (Tescos is 10% sugar.) Cheese triangles are useful snacks & can be eaten like sweets, though opening them will be a challenge. Wheatgerm is only 30% carbohydrate, so is a useful alternative to biscuit crumb for cheese-cakes & trifle. Dried apricots are nicer than sweets imo. All of these suggestions will be acceptable to the other children. Hope that helps. Give Grace a kiss from me. Ian [/QUOTE]
