"I made this using sweetener and only used 50g as it looked way too much because of the weight difference of sugar and sweetener. I didn't know what to expect but it turned out gorgeous, didn't last very long in our house and I am definitely going to be making this again, lovely. x"

"Very quick and easy to make. It tastes really good too, not like a low calorie recipe. I will be making this again especially as a quick one to whip up if people are coming over for tea! I worked out that it has about 233 calories per 100g. Perhaps we could have calorie counts and perhaps fat content on all the low calorie recipes please? "
