Sugar is not anathaema to a diabetic diet, though the amounts must be carefully monitored. Obviously high sugar content items would have to be carefully allowed for in the overall day's consumption to maintain blood sugar levels at safe levels. That said- most any recipe that calls for regular sugar can be altered to allow use of a sugar subsitute. In regards to a lemon curd, the sugar substitute would best be added after cooking is finished, and added to taste. There are several good subsitiutes on the market at the moment- one called Splenda which is manufactured from either cane or beet sugar. All of the major companies producing sugar replacements have recipes available on their websites to help guide you in their use. My father is diabetic, and we have had good luck using Splenda and Equal in items made for him. There is also a blend of sugar and Splenda, developed for baking purposes, which works extremely well. If you know how much you have added, and are careful in portioning the recipe out- it is fairly simple to calculate the amount of sugar and total carbohydrates in each serving. This was the recommendation of his nutritionist, and one he has been able to follow with great sucess. The only thing this substition does not work with, that we have found, is in jams, jellys and preserves. For those, my mother uses a pectin product that uses less natural sugar, or a mixture based on apple juice to avoid having to add sugar.
Hope this helps some, and you can always check out the various sites like SOAR, which have a diabetic recipe section.

Is less than half normal sugar.

Lemon curd is a sweet-tart custard traditionally spread on plain scones and muffins. It also makes a lovely cake, pie or tart filling.

3 eggs
3/4 cup sugar
1 tablespoon grated lemon zest
1 cup fresh lemon juice
4 tablespoons butter, chilled and cut into 4 pieces
In bowl or top of double boiler, whisk eggs until smooth. Whisk in sugar, zest and lemon juice. Place over small pan of simmering water and cook over low heat, stirring constantly with wooden spoon until thick and pale yellow, 7 to 10 minutes.
Stir in butter, one tablespoon at a time, until thoroughly combined and smooth.
Set bowl over ice, stirring occasionally, to cool. Cover with plastic wrap touching the curd's surface and store in refrigerator up to 5 days.
Makes 1 1/2 cups.
