Dukan Cake
This cake is gluten free, wheat free, nearly carb free and sugar free. I've adapted the recipe from the Dukan Diet Book
If you've not heard of the Dukan Diet (where have you been!?) it is basically a no carb, no sugar, no fat high protein, limited veg diet. In my opinion, and I have done this diet for over a month, I would say it's not a sustainable diet. It is, however, great for water loss and if you need to fit into a dress or just feel generally lighter.
If you've ever tried the Dukan Diet then you'll know how much you crave carb type foods, and this little cake is life saver!
