Caroline ,
For some reason they do not list the sugrs, And it is listed as a desert tht is WLS friendly . I wonder if they just forgot to put it in there .

It has brown surgar in it , so I would imagine it is would be over the 6 grams ,
I wish I knew how to convert .,

Thanks you for the update on the sugars.   NUT will love this recipe

This looks yummy.  Here's my question... is something like this for folks who have reached their goal and maintaining, or can those of us still in the process of weight loss eat this?  I have lost 99 lb and have about 35-40 to go.  I'm not supposed to be eating any breads, pasta, or rice... although admittedly, I have a bit of bread from time to time. 
Thanks,
Lynn
