Have you tried replacing the sugar with a sugar substitute such as Splenda. You can pretty much do any recipe you have or one you may find just by replacing the sugar with Splenda. You would use the same measurements. On another note, they also have brown sugar in the Splenda line. Good luck with your carrot cake.

Can you use a substitute for sugar, or is the health issue at hand recommending no substitues either?

Splenda is made from sugar so that's the one I reach for first.

I've also used a couple packets of sweet n low in recipes before, but it is very sweet, so use sparingly.

Please post what you wind up doing, I'm curious!
