Get your baking fix with less of the sweet stuff. For those looking to
reduce their sugar intake, now you can have your cake and eat it, too!
This is a sweet baking book with a difference--all of the recipes are
free from harmful sugars. Not that you'd notice it, of course--the
recipes are triple-tested and completely delicious! Rather than add
refined sugar, which has been shown to adversely affect health, author
Caroline Griffiths has added natural sweetness using whole fruits and
vegetables and, sometimes, other non-fructose sweeteners, including rice
malt syrup, dextrose, and stevia. Being mindful of the ingredients we
consume and eating in moderation are keys to a healthy life. Replacing
store-bought, processed products with goodies baked yourself is a step
in the right direction. All of the recipes in this book contain less
sugar than their traditional equivalent (many are completely sugar
free)--while half the recipes are also gluten-free. The seventy
simple-to-create recipes in the book show the diversity of sweet
baking--from classic cookies to incredible baked desserts and
showstopping celebration cakes.
