Thanks Denise...I did adjust the frosting a little from the recipe your posted. I used 8oz cream cheese and cool whip and splenda to taste mixed together. I don't know if it was mentioned, but with either topping the cake should be stored in the fridge. And YES, it is much better after it is chilled!!
I am going to try it with a few different jello mixes...pistachio is next on my list!! ![]() |

s1mon3....you said your going to try different jello flavors and that pistachio is next. Do you use jello or pudding, in it? Or did I miss something and there is now a pistachio jello???
Your cake is beautiful by the way!! VERY good job!!!!! |

I used SF jello for this recipe. When I try the pistachio I am going to use the SF pudding. I am basically juggling back and forth between induction and OWL so when I can afford the extra carbs, I will try the pistachio. Maybe for St. Patty's Day??
Sorry if I confused you. The cake was so good, and different ideas and flavors were just popping in my head, that I started to ramble a bit! ![]() Thanks for the compliments! |

Hey Simon, what did you think about the texture? I made the boston creme eclair cake today for me and my non lc bf tonight. I asked him how it was and he said, "It's spongy"... lol I don't think that's necessarily a compliment.
The eclair cake was made with pudding in the oopsies. It tasted good to me but maybe you have to be a LCer to appreciate it. ![]() |

I thought it was a light and fluffy angel type cake. It wasn't spongy to me or my husband. He ate about 3 slices today. We tasted the cake right after I put the frosting on, then again after it chilled in the fridge for about 2 hours. I think letting it "settle" made the texture a better. It is just like letting cheese cake set and chill before eating it.

Thanks Renee! I just wanted to make sure I didn't miss anything!!
I was thinking of using pistachio jello. I have a few boxes of the sf because I wanted to figure out how to make a lc Watergate salad. I had been craving that since last year. I was wondering how to do that in an Oopsie cake. Denise, did you get those roses for Valentines? They are beautiful!! |

Wow, now that I've tried the Boston Eclair cake the second day, I can't wait to try the jello either. Omg, It settled to be much more dense; yellow cake like. Very nice! For those that haven't seen the recipe, the pudding powder is baked in the oopsie. The pudding oopsie is then layered with the prepared pudding. Very yummy after chilled! Oh my

It's 24 grams carbs per box (small 1.0 oz); but keep in mind that you use a single box for the entire recipe.

lol, duh me, I knew you were at work. NO idea what I was thinking...or maybe I wasn;t is the problem..lol!
Thanks Denise! It does seem high to me but I guess if you are good with portion control that is not bad at all. I am not that good with portion control so I better stay away or I'll get myself in trouble. |

LOL TK!!
You know I looked it up on dailyplate and it showed that some of the sr pudding flavors had anywhere between 8 to 13 carbs, and I think it was for the whole box. I could be wrong, but that's what it looked like to me. |

Yep, Determined, it was for the whole box. It's one box per cake and that works out to be 2.4 grams carbs per slice if you can get 10 servings... not including the carbs in the oopsie and whatever is used for the icing. But all in all, should work out to be reasonable for a dessert. |
