I'm still around - I follow the low-carb-canada mailing list a lot more as it's there in my inbox all the time rather than having to remeber to come here and check things out - but I've dropped in here to the forum occaisionally to check things out - you guys have some great thread here and a great community.
W'ail e-mailed me to tell me you guys were talking about me - no wonder my ears were buzzing!!! Just kidding - LOL!!!
Anyways, my sugar free, low carb black forest wedding cake was two layers of a low carb chocolate cake recipe I got off the web, with Lucky Leaf Splenda Sweetened Cherry Pie filling in the middle(available in the US which I drove down from New Westminster, BC (where I lived at the time) to Bellingham to get), frosted with Splenda Sweetened Whipping Cream and very well drained and rinsed marachino cherries on top (which I didn't eat - they were more for decoration and for everyone else).
If you like I can type out the recipe for the chocolate cake - it's one I've seen alot on the web, I may have seen it on the low carb luxury site, and I think I got it off the Cam McDonald site (another mega low carb recipe site).
There is also an awesome, real looking white birthday cake (the Classic Birthday Cake already mentioned earlier in this thread) on the low carb luxury site that I haven't tried yet, but it looks workable and I want to try it one of these days.
I really miss the Lucky Leaf Splenda Sweetened Pie Fillings (Apple and Cherry) - since I moved to Saskatoon it is a long drive to the US so I haven't gone down there. I even phoned the makers of Lucky Leaf to see if I could order a case and have it shipped to me in Saskatoon - they said they didn't ship to Canada because the shipping method they use doesn't go to Canada (even though I said I'd pay for regular post and duty). I suggested they sell thier stuff on carbsmart or some of the other online low carb stores that are already shipping to Canada and would look after that - they said they would check into that, but I've never seen it for sale there. I even e-mailed carbsmart with Lucky Leaf's number to follow up and see if carbsmart could get thier stuff to sell, and Andrew (owner of carbsmart) e-mailed me back that he would look into it, so maybe someday we'll see it there. In the meantime I will just remember it fondly!
Keep Living La Vida Low Carb,
