I make my own and its so much better.. Plus u get tons more..

  • 1 (1.4 ounce) package sugar-free instant pudding mix. any kind will work.
  • 1 3/4 cups milk Fat free
  • 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese fat free
  • 1 (8 ounce) container sugar free frozen whipped topping, thawed

       DIRECTIONS

  1. In a medium bowl, combine pudding mix and milk. Mix well and let stand until thickened.
  2. In a large bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Add pudding and mix well. Finally, fold in whipped topping.

Splenda now makes a powdered sugar, And I think there is another brand out there as well... I just don't remember which one it was.

I have used Organic coconut oil, stevia, & natural extracts (vanilla, orange, etc.) to make frosting. Warm the oil a bit to soften it.  Add a bit of cornstarch if needed to get the consistency you want.

Supposively, there's  sugar free frosting.  I don't know how good it is, but one of my friends told me that a guy she knows that's diabetic tried it and thought it was good.
