Then you could start trying different "diabetic friendly" cake recipes and see how those affect you....Get a Blood Glucose meter and test before and 2 hours after every meal - and try a low carb diet for a few months. test, test and test again. You need to KNOW how different foods affect you if you want to be able to control your blood glucose levels using diet alone - which you DO need to do or you will run into all the nasty complications that diabetes can bring.If you've caught it early, you can control it pretty well.....but you need to make dietary changes (are you also on Metformin?)Basically, try to cut out all processed carbs - all sugar, flour, white bread, etc, etc..... It might be a pain, but it should be worth it in the end and you will rapidly adjust.Maybe snack on nuts, cheese, cold meat instead of cakes for a while and see how that goes.</blockquote>
