My dad is diabetic and has just lost a foot due to complications. I would really appreciate some recipes for desserts, especially pudding and cookies. Thanks in advance.

My mom is diabetic also and she loves sweets. She mostly eats sugar free Jello and sugar free Jello puddings. Although it's not a recipe, they really help her out when she craves sweets.

Sorry to hear that your dad lost a foot due to diabetic. Diabetic patients have systemetic life in theiir eating habit and all other works in daily ife. so they lead like normal man with some control instruction and thats good. Salads and vegetables are the most occupied items of their menu. can take sweet with minimum no keeping pace with their bloodsugar status. keep up excercise routinely. thats enogh for leading a nrmal life.

My dad was telling me that well he was in the hospital, they gave him pudding cups but he has been unable to find them here in Canada at the grocery store, that is the reason for my post. Are you in Canada? If so where can I purchuse them.

I'm in the U.S. but maybe you have the boxes in Canada. The instant pudding is real easy to make. All you need is milk, mix it and it's ready. Over here it is located in the baking aisle at the grocery store.
