Diabetic Spring Fling Layered White Cake image

White cake layered with strawberries and Apricot preserves. I searched the internet for a cake that I could make as a special treat (birthday) for a good friend that is diabetic. He thought it was wonderful and was quite flattered that I took the time to make it. This is not difficult to make, but there are alot of steps to it. I am not "used to" the taste of the fat free cream cheese, and quite honestly, do not like the frosting. UPDATE: My daughter used this cake recipe and "Absolutely Sugar Free" Frosting (recipe #123602) to do a wedding cake - Awesome together!!! Much better than the cream cheese frosting listed with the recipe!

This cake is a bit too sweet for my taste, but it's still good. I think I would reduce the amount of sugar next time.

I'm not a big fan of white cake, but this one was really good. It was moist and flavorful, and the frosting was perfect. I would definitely make this cake again.

This cake was a disappointment. It was dry and crumbly, and the frosting was too sweet. I won't be making this cake again.

I followed the recipe exactly, but my cake didn't turn out as fluffy as the picture. I'm not sure what I did wrong.
