    I've made this recipe several times and will usually omit the additional sugar - I think the natural fruit juice provides enough sweetness. - 10/16/09

    I'd rather just have the berries and yogurt and have eliminated white bread and sugar from my diet to the tune of 25 pounds lost. - 10/16/09

    I think I will try this one today!!! I am not sure about how much sugar I would use, depends on how sweet fruit is. - 10/16/09
