However, (good news) there are sugar substitutes that work quite well in most recipes and there are many different low carb flours and flour substitutes which may be used.
Low carb cakes can be delicious and do not raise blood sugar levels as a regular cake would, so if you are a diabetic and want to treat yourself to a cake you could consider trying a low carb cake recipe. In fact many non-diabetics, or those wishing to reduce sugar and carbs intake can enjoy these cakes too.

Gracias por la receta. Te mando un beso.
The look delicious!
These look wonderful, dear Jan! Thank you so much for sharing.
I've never made a mug cake. These look good!
These look delicious. I'm going to have to try them. Perfect for a winter day with a mug of coffee.
I saved both of these recipes. Thanks.
Have never made a mug cake, as I don't have a microwave. They are great for when you just need a little treat.
I love mug cakes !! I will definitely make these.
I'm not a fan of mud cakes at all, Jan.
There are soooo many options these days. Even black bean cakes to get more goodness in there.
I sure know how thankful I have to be all is OK with my body.
And how ironic I don´t like sweets mostly! Someone has humor! Also... knock on wood!
Great you find and share alternatives for those who like sweets and have to take care!
Wow, what a great idea and ready in minutes can't wait to try this. I really fancy the one with cream cheese.
Mug cake is a very good idea. I made some in the past I will try the cocoa one I am always scared of the microwave heat too much or not we will see.
...ready in under five minutes, what a deal.
Thanks for sharing that low carb cake recipe.
Handy recipes to have--thank you!
These are good ideas. Thanks for the link!
I’m always disappointed because I can’t have almond flour, but maybe the coconut flour would work.
YUM!
Thank you for sharing.

And thank you for sharing the bouquet.
These look good Jan. I've seen several interesting mug cake recipes but the only problem is I don't have a microwave haha! So never made one! I really like Almond Flour, though can be pricy :-D
Mug Cakes!?
yummy
I love a good mug cake.
These are great. You can have a piece of cake without making a whole big one.
Sometimes a little bit of cake can be very satisfying. A mug cake means there are no leftovers!

Mug cakes are fun. Thanks for sharing this because I forgot about them. I made a high carb dessert today for Thanksgiving tomorrow. Good thing there will be 10 of us to eat it. :)
I've made some of those!!!
Confesso que nunca comi bolo feito assim. Mais parecem deliciosos. Uma excelente quinta-feira.
I have yet to try one of these mug cakes, I really need too :)
I have never made a mug cake, but they seem to be a good idea.
We have lots of surplus mugs so we could have a feast!
I don't know how I missed this. I think this is a great idea. Thank you.
I've made a sponge pudding in the microwave but never tried a mug cake.
I love this idea. I have never tried a mug cake- but it looks tasty!
Interesante, me gusta la idea. Besos.
Both those mug cakes look delicious, Jan. I also really love the floral arrangement.
