Cherries and chocolate just naturally taste great together, but the combination is even better when enhanced by tender crepes and a creamy filling.—Mary Relyea, Canastota, New York

How can you rate this as diabetic friendly when it has 39 grams of carbs? That is 9 grams over what I am allowed for just one day!
