📖 A Little History

Traditional cakes date back to ancient times, but modern sugar-free baking became popular in the late 20th century as awareness of diabetes and healthy eating increased. With the rise of natural sugar substitutes like stevia and monk fruit, diabetic-friendly desserts have evolved to taste just as indulgent as classic cakes—without the sugar spikes.

This recipe reflects the modern approach: simple ingredients, natural sweetness, and quick preparation.
