In the Bakery Book I did carb counts based on the entire recipe.To me a cake is 12 -14 servings to you it might be 10.So the carb counts are for the entire recipe and you can make it as many servings as you like. ;)

Umpa this is wonderful!!  I made this tonight and couldn't wait for it to cool enough to have a piece...LOL    I think I know why my brownies weren't very sweet.  I realized that I am using the crystallized xylitol in stead of the powdered.... :o  That might make a difference.  I'll get it straight one of these days.  I just put it in the grinder and it worked just fine.  Thanks for a great recipe!!    Hubs might even like it.  ;D ;D

Ok so now I know it is a winner  ;D ;D  Hubs had a piece when he got home this morning and said that it was very good...Yea!!  Thanks again Umpa!!  You rock!!  I cut mine in 15 squares so that would make it 2 net carbs per piece.  :o  That is just to awesome! 

Might have to freeze the individual pieces so that I am not tempted to often ;) ..LOL  Does this freeze well?

The same recipe makes wonderful cup cakes too. Umpa has a mini cupcake pan so when she makes them portion control is very easy and delicious!  ;)

Yes I will try and make them cup cakes the next time.... that is a great idea.  I'm anxious to try other recipes now only I promised myself I would just do one a week...LOL  I need to break the habit of needing something sweet.  It's a work in progress for sure  :-\

Hi, your carrot cake sounds great.  How do I determine the nutritional info and especially the carbs for it?

Hi Margot! Its posted with the recipe.The whole cake is 30 carbs.I did all the recipes in The Fat to Skinny Bakery Book by total carbs for the whole recipe because your idea on a serving  of cake may be different than mine.So you divide the 30 carbs by number of servings.When baking low carb always follow the direction exactly.It  took me years of  failures to come up with good recipes. If I can help you please ask. ;)
