As I said, using the full-fat stuff will greatly reduce the carbs. And
1/8th of this cheesecake is a *very* generous serving (I often cut a slice
in half, as it's really rich). Using full-fat stuff and cutting the
serving
size to 1/16th, the carb count would go like this:

Entire cheesecake: 50 carbs
16 servings at 3.1 carbs per slice

I can't imagine cutting a cheesecake into 16 pieces. If it were a good
cheesecake, my husband would easily eat at least half of it in one sitting.
He has been known to eat an entire cheesecake. Just him and a fork.

Steel's Sour Cherry Jam with no sugar added is 1.5 carbs per tablespoon.
Here's a link to nutritional info on their products:

little
prepared sugar-free Jell-O on top of the cheesecake; it would at least
give
you the cherry flavor.

Innovation is the name of the game with diabetics...and I've learned to
innovate a lot since my diagnosis last year!

I've tried few products from Steel's and didn't care for them. Don't they
use fructose?
