This next idea isn't actually cakes or bakes but Bikershaz recommended it after she saw it on the threads.

I found this by searching the other day and it is lovely, although I have forgotten whose recipe it was!

I chopped up some strawberries and added some pineapple rings. I cooked it with a little water until it was all squidgy. Then added some sweetener. I also whizzed it with the blender. It is now in the fridge, although it isn't going to last for long 


Jam recipe 


200g frozen fruits, add 2 cups water & boil making sure the water doesn't boil away. Add more water if necessary.
Make sugar free jelly using only HALF amount of water so that jelly is more thick than usual.
Leave fruits to cool. Add jelly and stir.
Pour into jar and store in fridge. Normally lasts 2 weeks.
ONLY 1 POINT for Whole Jar.
