    Very Good
    While it is VERY GOOD, I don't think it's 'light'. I am very grateful for Nana's granddaughter for sharing this. It reminds me of a cake we had with a good family friend. I will be making this for my best friends going away party. Thank you. - 1/28/12

    How about substituting diet cola, and splenda? Not sure this can be low-fat exactly, but its cake... one of those things you just have to splurge a little on lol. - 8/2/08
