Hello, my name is Emma and I am doing a project at school to design desserts for people with diabetes to eat on special occations. I need about 20 people suffering from diabetes to help me by filling in a questionnaire i have prepared. Thank you to anybody willing to help me out, I am very greatful. Here are the questions:
What sort of desserts do you like to eat, that you cant, at a special occasion?


What sort of cake would you prefer at a special occasion?


Are you limited to the amount of cake/dessert you can eat at a special occasion?


Would you buy a product e.g. a birthday cake, if it was suitable for people suffering from diabetes?

Yes or No


If so, how much would you pay for a dessert or cake that is suitable for a special occasion?


Have you seen anything like this product on the supermarket shelves before?

Yes or No

If so, where?


What sort of size do you think the product should be? For example, would you mind other people eating this product or would you prefer a smaller option just for a couple of people?

Why would you like to have a product specially designed for people with diabetes?
 
Hi emma i am a type 2.

What sort of desserts do you like to eat, that you cant, at a special occasion?
A..Just a bit of strawberry cheesecake, but can't not even a small slice

What sort of cake would you prefer at a special occasion?
A..Cheesecake

Are you limited to the amount of cake/dessert you can eat at a special occasion?
A..Yes none, because any sort of cake/dessert would send my blood sugar through the roof, not worth the the suffering!

Would you buy a product e.g. a birthday cake, if it was suitable for people suffering from diabetes?
A.. Any sort of stuff made for diabetics is covered in laxative, take thortons chocolate etc, to make the taste they use laxative... Answer would be no.
Yes or No


If so, how much would you pay for a dessert or cake that is suitable for a special occasion?
A...£2 or above depends on what it is, how many carbs is contained with in it! How many different types of sugar or sweetners are used in it.

Have you seen anything like this product on the supermarket shelves before?

Yes

If so, where?
A... Thorntons, but they contain laxative.


What sort of size do you think the product should be? For example, would you mind other people eating this product or would you prefer a smaller option just for a couple of people?
A.. unsure of size, would never stop someone else eating it, would need to know what it contains before i try!

Why would you like to have a product specially designed for people with diabetes?
A... Have you seen the amount of carbs conatined in desserts, Take ambrossia creamed rice, Half can 33.8 carbs in that alone.

I hope this offers some sort of help!

What sort of desserts do you like to eat, that you cant, at a special occasion?

A. Sherry trifle! Apart from that, I've really lost the taste for sweet stuff.


What sort of cake would you prefer at a special occasion?

A. I'd much prefer a small portion of strawberries, blueberries etc. topped with cream or natural yoghurt, maybe with chopped nuts, a grating of high cocoa dark chocolate and a dash of unsweetened spirits, (e.g. Cointreau or brandy) for additional flavour.


Are you limited to the amount of cake/dessert you can eat at a special occasion?

A. Yes. Almost all traditional desserts are full of sugar and I can't eat them.


Would you buy a product e.g. a birthday cake, if it was suitable for people suffering from diabetes?

Yes or No

A. Only if it was free of polyols (sugar alcohols) which cause unfortunate side-effects.


If so, how much would you pay for a dessert or cake that is suitable for a special occasion?

A. No more than a non-diabetic.


Have you seen anything like this product on the supermarket shelves before?

Yes or No

If so, where?

A. Yes. Thornton's and a stall at my local market stock similar products but, as sandymaynard says, they're full of powerful laxatives.


What sort of size do you think the product should be? For example, would you mind other people eating this product or would you prefer a smaller option just for a couple of people?

A. Normal size. I wouldn't mind anyone else eating this product as I'd be at the cheese board instead.

Why would you like to have a product specially designed for people with diabetes?

A. I wouldn't. If you can produce a tasty, low-sugar dessert without the nasty sweeteners, then it would be good for everyone, not just diabetics.


Hope this helps, and good luck with your studies.
