I made this for a diabetic friend. I found the cake to be lacking in flavor, but my friend thought they were to die for. I definitely liked them better warmed up. When cold they seemed to crumble a lot.

As a gastric bypass patient, I'm always looking for sugar-free or low sugar recipes to try for my sweet tooth. Unless you do a splenda-sugar free maple syrup blend for the topping (rather than the splenda brown sugar), this isn't really sugar free enough. It was delicious though, I do recommend eating it warm. Even hubby liked it and he's usually not a fan of my sugar free treat attempts.

very good cake, but a little too sweet. i'd drop half of the sweetener next time, but i will make it again. especially once blueberry season hits.

Try this recipe with a bag of frozen mixed berries. It's great (but chop up the big berries before you put them in). I used Splenda brown sugar blend. In moderation, a diabetic can easily enjoy this cake. Absolutely wonderful.

I made this in a 9-inch pan and it turned out perfectly. Be sure to reduce the amount of topping by about half if you bake the cake in a round pan to account for the smaller surface area. I've also made this with real sugars. The result is equally good.

This was not good. We could not eat it. I used frozen berries and the batter was too stiff.

This is great but you state that it has 44.7 grams of carbs and that is what mosst of us diabetics can have for one meal. I can have 45 so I would have to just it that for a whole meal. Now we know why it taste so good.

Yummy!! I could not find the type of brown sugar called for so I used the splenda type. However, it is 1/2 real sugar...so I scaled down the topping quite a bit. I only used 1/2 cup of the splenda brown sugar and added enough flour and butter to make it crumbly, I still used 2 teaspoons cinnamon though. For us it was plenty of topping. This is a yummy "almost" sugar free cake made with the splenda brown sugar. Thanks for another great recipe!!

This was my first attempt at cooking with a sugar subsitute - my father-in-law is diabetic. I wasn't hoping for much, honestly, but it turned out really well! It was a little more dense than a traditional coffee cake, but the flavor was great and everyone loved it.

I made this for friends who are diabetic, and it's the best reduced-sugar cake I have tried making so far. Splenda cakes tend to be rather dense, but this one was fluffier. It's not as fluffy as a cake that uses regular sugar, but it's definitely fluffier than any other Splenda cake I have tried making. I made it during the summer, so I had fresh blueberries that were in season. For the topping, I used Splenda Brown Sugar blend (which contains some real brown sugar, so it's not sugar-free). Instead of one full teaspoon of vanilla, I used 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla and 1/2 teaspoon of almond extract. I know from experience that this combination works really well to bring out the taste of blueberries. The recipe yielded two 6" round cake pans. I would definitely make this recipe again. Thanks :)

I was a little skeptical about these,as I am not a fan of artificial sweeteners,but my dad is a diabetic so I thought I would give them a try. They we SO good,you really couldn't even tell it wasen't made with real sugar.Kind of tasted like a cross between cake and a scone(but not as dry as a scone).For anyone looking for a sugar free recipe,this one is definitely worth making!

I love this recipe! The only tip I would pass along is that it seems there is too much butter in the topping mix. I have had to add flour to get the right consistancy. I have made it both with Splenda and regular sugar and both times it was a huge hit!

I was diagnosed with pre diabetes just recently and was missing dessert, and we had just gone and picked fresh blueberries, so I was looking for a sugar free recipe when I came across this one. I am SOOO glad I found this it is absolutely AWESOME!!!! My other half is not diabetic and also thoroughly enjoyed this!!! I used blueberries that we had frozen and had to cook it for about 10 min longer. I will be recommending this to all people I know who are on low or no sugar diets!

This was soo good for being very low in sugar. I love sweets but I don't need all of the sugar I get from them. I did use whole wheat flour for the cake and both white and brown Splenda. I turned out great. Still very moist even with the wheat flour.

I'd give this one 10 stars if I could. My husband cannot have sugar so we both went insane for this moist luscious treat. I used frozen blueberries and only sprayed my pan with non-stick spray. No extra added time used and came out, as my youngest daughter likes to say: PERFECTO!
