Pam, you can reduce the sugar in the cake batter by 25% and still get relatively good results; you can also skip the glaze and icing and instead simply grate some fresh lemon zest over the top for a further reduction in sugar. If you replace half of the butter with apple sauce, the cake will like rise a bit less and may not be quite as tender, but you're welcome to give it a shot! Kye@KAF
