    This is good. It isn't sweet, but that's what I like about it. - 12/10/07

    Based on the other comments I doubled the applesauce and used apple juice concentrate instead of the water and it turned out well. I was making the cake for a little boy who cannot have sugar, so instead of the whole wheat flour I used white flour for a lighter flavor. Will make again. - 9/9/07

    It was pretty dry. Put some applesauce on top and that helped. - 9/7/07

    I made this cake for my father in law. It is his birthday and he is diabetic. He liked it very much. I tried it, it was a little dry but I put cool whip lite on it and it wasn't too bad. It wasn't sweet but that was the whole point of making it sugar free. Probably want try again though. - 4/26/07

    it was thin and very dry and not sweet enough for cake. Ended up tossing it out. - 3/26/07
