Maya, some people are just bakers and not cookers. Sometimes people may also cook for their profession and need idea's. I don't know if they'd realistically use the internet or not, but they might.
I personally don't bake much, I'm not that much of a sweets person, but if I was doing it for a fund raiser or a family party or something, then I'd welcome the recommendation of the website, cause while it is a special event, I would want my dessert to be kind of healthy for those I am serving it to lol.
My dad also likes to bake, and it's rare any more that he does, and I sure would love it if he found things on dlife.com to bake, instead of high sugar high calorie stuff from traditional cook books:)
By the way, you don't have to be diabetic, to use sites like Dlife.com people would benefit with better health, from cooking things with reduced fat and calories and sodium, or following diabetic recipes, since diabetics have to be strict about their eating, it's usually very very healthy.

I would be more focused on the main courses. Desserts should be an occasional treat say twice a week. as long as it is served in a reasonable portion size.. it is okay to have the occasional sinful piece as it will make it easier to stick with a diet plan when you know you can plan in to meet your evil food type cravings. for some it may be chips for another person it may be chocolate .
So if you were used to having a couple 140 gram bags of chips each week ... rather than eliminate all together and risk having your diet fall apart. due to cravings, plan to have 1 or 2 1/2 to 2 oz snack packs instead a week as you dessert
