For no particular reason: Lola's homemade chocolate
Today is Lola the Corgi's presumed birthday. We chose it approximately, while at the vet's, because Lola's story is nothing short of a canine miracle. She jumped in my cab, somewhere in the humble outskirts of Bucharest, on Saint Nicholas' Day. The driver asked, absurdly, if that was 'my dog' and I simply answered 'well, now it is'.
Little did we know the shaking, stone cold and scared to death puppy was a very rare Cardigan Corgi - this came later, when a British friend was amazed at the recovery and pointed it out adamantly. She could have been stolen or simply lost, but we will never know and we never looked back.
All our dogs had Spanish names (except for cats, always boys and always Pasha, namesakes of a beloved Shipper Mom's childhood pet), simply because they are easy to learn and remember. In her case, Lola is for...
for well... for obvious locomotion reasons 🤣 #LolaFlores. Twelve years with a supremely intelligent and empathic friend deserved a batch of my homemade chocolate, don't you think?
Too bad she can't try it. But enough babbling, here goes.
You will need: 2 cups/ 250 grams milk powder - I recommend Nestlé's Carnation, if you can't get hold of Rarăul, the obscure, Communist local brand (so damn good); 2 sticks/200 grams full fat butter (I recommend Irish butter, always with excellent results), at room temperature, cubed; 7 Tablespoons/50 grams cocoa (Dutch, if you can, but I prefer either Ghirardelli or the Greek Ion brand, which I think are the best on this planet); 2½ cups/ 500 grams Demerara sugar (or caster sugar). A dash of instant coffee, for decorating. You can replace sugar by stevia sweetener (measure accordingly - I used this, because I was also cooking for a severe diabetic who can't control herself), with very good results. Optional: crushed tea biscuits or cookies in the US/chopped hazelnuts/pine nuts/walnuts/peanut butter (in swirls) - sky is the limit. For the adult version, feel free to add a hefty swig of brandy/rhum/whisky/bourbon/vodka/limoncello or hey, let's be totally dirty (sssh!), Bailey's.
In a nonstick pan, gently simmer 3/4 cup or 170 ml cold water with ALL the sugar. Stir nonstop (only with wooden spoon or silicone spatula, never metal - it lends a foul taste!) until you get a sort of thin syrup - basically the sugar should dissolve, nothing more. 2 to 3 minutes should be enough.
Add the cubed butter, stir gently until it melts and incorporates completely. 10 minutes max, but never stop stirring!
Take the pan off the heat. Gently pour dry milk in small batches, stirring and incorporating continuously. It should immediately thicken, sticky fudge consistency.
Gently mix the cocoa, with slow, ample bottom/top movements (you don't want it anywhere else but in that pan, for sure). Right consistency should be a thick ribbon, pouring from the spoon.
Back to the heat for about 30 to 45 seconds, stirring all the time. I have no idea why, but my grandma always insisted it was very important, go figure. Take off the heat and immediately add the nuts and (if you choose) the alcohol, mixing vigorously.
Pour into a well buttered loaf tin. Dust with instant coffee. Let cool, put into fridge for 6 hours minimum (overnight is better). Only cut with a wet knife. Devour and don't think about the damn calories.
I am sorry for the very, very old pic (2010, I think). Tonight, it was impossible to take a proper one 😱.
This is what we do call 'homemade chocolate' all over Eastern Europe, but to be honest, it's rather some very, very good fudge. The dry milk is a dead giveaway of the real age of the recipe, which is around 1945 - postwar rationing, of course.
You are welcome. You won't regret the 45 minutes you're likely to spend making it.

Recipe: Supernatural Devil's Trap Demon Proof Cherry Pie
Hello, tumblr family. Below is a repost of an article originally posted on adorpheus.com, and is being shared here for archival purposes. Original post date: Circa 2012.
You know what's pretty cool? Fandom food things. I came up with this Supernatural themed cherry pie a few years ago. Here's the recipe I came up with.
(sugar free, gluten free option, vegan) I make it up as I go along for this pie, so the measurements are approximate. Use your own discretion, you culinary genius, you!
For the crust we used Namaste Foods Biscuits Pie Crust and More Mix. We followed the directions for pie crust, except we substituted the butter with Earth Balance (the stick kind) and the egg with a flax "egg". You can use a pre-made pie crust if that behooves you.
For the filling
2 ten ounce bags of frozen pitted cherries, preferably organic (about 4-5 cups). Obviously you can use fresh cherries too, but do YOU wanna remove the seeds from 4 cups of cherries?
1 cup of water
1/2 tsp of sea salt
3 TBSP (or more to taste) of Stevia Baking Blend Powder, Coconut Sugar, or other dry sweetener
1 TBSP of organic cornstarch
For the Devil's Trap Again, I was winging it here. This also made way more chocolate than we needed (we ate the rest like fondue and dipped banana slices in it).
1/4 cup cocoa powder
2-3 TBSP coconut oil, melted
Stevia or other sweetener to taste
(You can also melt some vegan chocolate chips if you don't want to make your own chocolate sauce from scratch).
Method
Preheat the oven to 350f/176c. Make the pie crust according to the package directions if you're not using a pre-made crust. Put the bottom crust into a greased 8-inch pie pan.
instagram
To make the filling, combine the first 4 filling ingredients in a saucepan over medium heat. Cook until the stevia or other sweetener is dissolved and the cherries are defrosted, and the water is boiling a little. Add more water if necessary. Once its boiling, add in the cornstarch and whisk until thickened. Pour the cooked filling into the bottom crust and prepare the top crust while the mixture cools. Add the top crust when ready.
For the devil's trap, I etched it into the top crust with a knife prior to baking (above). We used this image from Super-Wiki as a reference.
Anyways, after that we put it in the oven until it looked done. Probably about a half hour, but I wasn't really paying attention. You bake it until the crust is browned a little and if you can see any of the filling, it should be bubbling. Before decorating with chocolate, set the pie aside to cool for at least 45 minutes. Especially if you're using coconut oil, you don't want the pie to be warm at all because it'll melt the chocolate. After the pie is cooled off, assemble all the chocolate ingredients in a saucepan and heat over low until the coconut oil is melted. Whisk them together to form a chocolate sauce. I used a knife to carefully (painfully) draw the design by dipping the tip of the knife in chocolate and drawing along the lines I had etched in the crust prior to baking. This was tricky and not that fun. If you have a better method for doing this, go ahead and try that. Let the chocolate cool. Eat.

Blog Post 5: Valentine's Day
Blog Post 5: Valentine’s Day
Planning ahead makes things much easier. We didn’t do a nice dinner on Valentine’s Day this year. We kept it simple. My boys and I went to dollar tree to get some snacks and treats to fill each other’s bags with, as well as a cards. It was honestly fun just picking out the small treats together. While we were in the dollar tree an older gentleman gave my boys a peppermint. This made their day. But then, while we were checking out Him and His wife bought my boys a Valentine’s Day balloon as well. They were so excited to play with those balloons when they got home.
I expected all the sweet treats to pile up this Valentine’s Day, and they did. The day started with Bo-berry biscuits from Bojangles which I decided before hand I would not partake of. I brought them home for boys, and they are still in the fridge. I work at a preschool and teach music there. It’s the best job in the world and even though I don’t get paid very much, I truly love it. But, on this particular day I was helping in the baby room with Mrs. Karen. The kindergarteners so sweetly brought me gummy bears and I sent them to my room for lollipops.
There were bags of sweet treats, a nice big red heart filled with chocolate, and then one of my other students brought another chocolate heart for me. It was kind and thoughtful; they just didn’t know that I was fasting from sweet treats. Thankfully, I did get one gift, from the teacher I was helping. She got me a Bath and Body Works candle and some body wash. Now that I could use! All the gifts were great, but I knew I wouldn’t be eating any of the sugar.
When I got home, we each signed the cards and got started on our Valentine's Day as a family. The kids opened their bags of snacks, sweets, and encouraging cards, then we did. My husband got me some flowers and a caramel chocolate bar that was sweetened with stevia. The funny thing is, I bought one of those for myself and put in the little red bag from the dollar tree. I also had a sweetened with erythritol Body Armor drink. We watched Lyle, Lyle, Crocodile as a family as we ate our snacks along with some pizza. It really was a relaxing and fun family night that we all enjoyed.
The Christmas bag is now filled with all the sweets from Christmas and Valentine’s Day treats that I can’t eat. This bag is still sitting beside me filled to the brim as I write to you. Really, it doesn’t bother me as much now. The less sugar I eat, the less I crave it. On Saturday we went out to a nice bakery as a family, and I did order a sweet and sugar laden treat. But I only ate half of it. It was good at first, but then it tasted too sweet, and I could tell my body was done. It is sitting in the fridge now uneaten. I’m learning. I do believe my sugar addiction is completely broken. Now my mind is set on what needs to be my next steps in relation to limiting my daily sugar intake when I’m off this fast.
It really does feel like freedom. So, I want to encourage you today in saying, “the less you eat the less you crave.” Honestly, sugar has long been a go to crutch that I have relied on. Now the sweets have lost their hold on me, and this is the way it should be. I still love celebrating, but I’ve learned so much about self-control and refusing to drink the Kool-Aid, or in this case eat the sugar, just because everyone else is doing it. Just because others eat junk, doesn’t mean we should. It’s a choice to respect and honor my body and my life by choosing to eat what makes me feel good. And that, is a huge accomplishment for this sugar loving girl.

Are Bakery Biscuits Good for Health
Are Bakery Biscuits Good for Health? The Truth About Healthy Bakery Biscuits
When you walk into a bakery, the smell of freshly baked biscuits fills the air, tempting you to indulge in these crispy, buttery treats. Whether it's for breakfast, a snack, or dessert, bakery biscuits are often a go-to comfort food. But if you're conscious about your health, you might wonder: Are bakery biscuits good for health?
The truth is, it depends on what goes into them. While traditional bakery biscuits may not always be the healthiest option, there are healthier alternatives that you can enjoy without guilt. In this post, we’ll explore how you can make better choices and why healthy bakery biscuits can be a great addition to your diet when made right.
What Makes Traditional Bakery Biscuits Unhealthy?
Traditional bakery biscuits are often made with refined white flour, sugar, and high amounts of butter or shortening. These ingredients can contribute to:
High calorie content: Most biscuits contain a lot of butter, sugar, and oils that increase the calorie count.
Lack of nutritional value: Refined flour and sugar provide little to no nutritional benefits, leading to a high glycemic index, which can cause spikes in blood sugar levels.
Trans fats: Some bakery biscuits are made with unhealthy fats like trans fats, which are linked to heart disease and other chronic conditions.
While indulging in bakery biscuits once in a while may not harm your health, regular consumption of these varieties can lead to weight gain, high cholesterol, and other health issues over time.
How Can Bakery Biscuits Be Made Healthier?
The good news is that bakery biscuits don’t have to be unhealthy! By making some simple substitutions and adjustments, you can transform your favorite biscuits into a healthier version without sacrificing taste. Here are some ways to make healthy bakery biscuits:
Use Whole Grains Instead of refined white flour, try using whole wheat flour or oats. Whole grains are rich in fiber, vitamins, and minerals, making them a healthier alternative. They also keep you fuller for longer, helping to curb hunger and reduce the chances of overeating.
Substitute Healthy Fats While butter and shortening are common ingredients in traditional biscuits, you can opt for healthier fat sources like olive oil or coconut oil. These oils contain healthy fats, which are better for your heart.
Reduce Sugar Many bakery biscuits use excessive sugar to achieve their sweetness. You can significantly reduce the sugar content in your biscuits or even substitute it with natural sweeteners like honey or maple syrup. You could also use a small amount of stevia or other plant-based sweeteners that have a low glycemic index.
Add Healthy Ingredients Boost the nutritional profile of your biscuits by adding ingredients like nuts, seeds, or dried fruits. These additions provide extra fiber, protein, and healthy fats, making your biscuits more filling and nutritious.
Go for a Vegan Option A vegan version of bakery biscuits typically excludes dairy and eggs. You can use plant-based alternatives like almond milk or flaxseed meal, which still deliver a satisfying texture without compromising health benefits.
Benefits of Healthy Bakery Biscuits
When made with better ingredients, healthy bakery biscuits can offer several benefits:
Nutrient-dense: By using whole grains, nuts, and seeds, you’ll be adding fiber, vitamins, and minerals to your diet. These nutrients support digestion, immune function, and overall well-being.
Lower glycemic index: Healthier versions of biscuits with less sugar and refined flour won’t cause the same blood sugar spikes, making them a better choice for people managing diabetes or those looking to maintain stable energy levels throughout the day.
Better heart health: Substituting unhealthy fats with heart-healthy oils like olive oil or avocado oil can help improve your cholesterol levels and reduce the risk of heart disease.
Satisfaction without the guilt: When made with wholesome ingredients, you can enjoy biscuits as part of a balanced diet without worrying about excess calories or unhealthy fats.
Conclusion
So, are bakery biscuits good for health? The answer is: it depends. Traditional bakery biscuits can be high in unhealthy fats, refined sugars, and calories. However, when prepared with wholesome ingredients, healthy bakery biscuits can be a delicious, nutritious, and guilt-free treat. By opting for whole grains, reducing sugar, and using healthier fats, you can enjoy biscuits that are both tasty and beneficial for your health.
Next time you're craving biscuits, consider making a healthier version at home or finding a bakery that offers healthier alternatives. Your taste buds—and your health—will thank you!

Bakery Sweetener Market: Key Insights and Emerging Trends
The bakery sweetener market has evolved rapidly in response to growing consumer demand for healthier, lower-calorie, and more natural ingredients in baked goods. As awareness of the health risks associated with excessive sugar consumption increases, consumers are seeking alternatives that align with their health-conscious lifestyles. This shift is reshaping the bakery industry, pushing manufacturers to explore and integrate innovative sweeteners. This article delves into the key trends, market drivers, and future prospects of the bakery sweetener market, offering a fresh perspective on its evolving landscape.
Rising Demand for Healthier Sweeteners
Consumers are becoming more mindful of the food they consume, leading to a surge in demand for healthier bakery products. Excessive sugar intake has been linked to numerous health issues, including obesity, diabetes, and heart disease. As a result, there is a growing shift toward sweeteners that provide the desired sweetness without contributing to unhealthy sugar levels.
Natural sweeteners like stevia, monk fruit extract, and agave syrup are gaining popularity due to their low-calorie nature and minimal impact on blood sugar levels. Additionally, sugar alcohols such as erythritol and xylitol are increasingly used in products targeting low-sugar or sugar-free markets, especially for those following ketogenic or diabetic diets.
A Shift Toward Clean Label Products
Consumers are increasingly seeking products with clean and transparent labels. This shift is forcing the bakery industry to reconsider the use of artificial sweeteners and embrace more natural alternatives. As part of the clean label trend, many consumers are moving away from synthetic ingredients and favoring sweeteners that are minimally processed and plant-based.
Natural sweeteners, which often align with the clean label trend, are derived from sources such as fruits, plants, and herbs. For instance, stevia, derived from the Stevia plant, and monk fruit extract, obtained from the monk fruit, are gaining momentum as consumers become more educated about their benefits. These ingredients are viewed as healthier alternatives to traditional sugars and are often preferred in organic and natural bakery products.
Popular Bakery Products and Their Sweeteners
The demand for healthier sweeteners is evident across various categories of bakery products. Here are some of the key areas in the bakery sector where these sweeteners are making an impact:
Cakes and Muffins: As consumers continue to reduce their sugar intake, low-calorie sweeteners such as stevia and erythritol are often used in cakes and muffins. These sweeteners provide the same sweetness with fewer calories and a lower glycemic index, making them suitable for those on low-sugar or diabetic-friendly diets.
Cookies and Biscuits: Sugar-free and low-sugar cookies are becoming increasingly popular. These products use a variety of sweeteners, including sucralose, stevia, and sugar alcohols, to offer the desired flavor without the sugar rush.
Bread and Pastries: For many consumers, reducing sugar in bread and pastries is important for health reasons. The use of natural sweeteners, like honey or coconut sugar, offers a more health-conscious approach to traditional bakery products.
Gluten-Free and Keto Products: The gluten-free and keto markets are booming, and these products often require sugar substitutes that meet the dietary restrictions of these trends. Allulose, a low-calorie sweetener, is frequently used in these specialty bakery items to mimic sugar’s functionality without the added carbs.
Key Drivers of Growth in the Bakery Sweetener Market
Several factors are driving the growth of the bakery sweetener market:
Growing Health Concerns: As global health challenges like obesity and diabetes become more prominent, consumers are turning to low-calorie, low-sugar, and sugar-free products. This shift has increased the demand for sweeteners that don't compromise on flavor but support healthier lifestyles.
Increased Adoption of Special Diets: Diets such as keto, low-carb, and vegan have gained traction, creating an opportunity for sweeteners that align with these dietary preferences. For example, sugar alcohols, stevia, and monk fruit are all compatible with low-carb and keto diets, making them popular choices in bakery items.
Innovation in Sweetener Technologies: Advancements in sweetener technology have opened the door to new products that blend natural and artificial sweeteners to enhance taste and texture while reducing caloric content. This has expanded the variety of sweeteners available for bakery applications, including those that can mimic sugar’s functionality without the downsides.
Sustainability and Ethical Sourcing: Consumers are also increasingly concerned with the sustainability of ingredients. Sweeteners like stevia and honey are often favored because they are natural and can be produced sustainably. The emphasis on sustainability and ethical sourcing in the bakery sweetener market is likely to continue driving growth as consumers demand more transparency in product sourcing.
Challenges and Barriers
Despite the rapid growth of the bakery sweetener market, several challenges remain:
Taste and Texture: One of the biggest hurdles in using alternative sweeteners in bakery products is their ability to mimic the taste and texture of sugar. Some natural sweeteners, such as stevia and monk fruit, can leave an aftertaste, while others might not have the same texture, impacting the overall quality of baked goods.
Cost of Premium Sweeteners: Natural and functional sweeteners, such as stevia and agave syrup, tend to be more expensive than traditional sugar. This price disparity can make it difficult for manufacturers to create cost-effective products, especially in price-sensitive markets.
Consumer Education: Although the demand for healthier sweeteners is rising, some consumers may still be unfamiliar with alternative sweeteners. Misunderstandings about the health benefits and safety of certain sweeteners can hinder their adoption. Educating consumers on the safety and benefits of these ingredients will be crucial in overcoming this barrier.
The Road Ahead for the Bakery Sweetener Market
Looking ahead, the bakery sweetener market is expected to continue expanding as consumers prioritize healthier and more sustainable options. The key trends influencing the market’s future include:
Personalized Sweetener Solutions: Advances in food technology could lead to more customized sweetener solutions that cater to individual tastes, dietary restrictions, and health goals.
Sustainability: The demand for sustainably sourced ingredients will push companies to adopt eco-friendly practices in their sweetener production processes.
Functional Sweeteners: Sweeteners that offer additional health benefits, such as prebiotics, fiber, or low glycemic indexes, are likely to gain more popularity as consumers look for added value in their food choices.
Conclusion
The bakery sweetener market is at a critical juncture, driven by health-conscious trends and evolving consumer preferences. With innovations in sweetener technologies, a greater focus on natural ingredients, and a shift toward sustainable and clean-label products, the future of the bakery sweetener market is poised for continued growth. As manufacturers adapt to these changing demands, the market will likely see more variety in sweetener options, creating exciting possibilities for both producers and consumers.

What are sugar-free digestive biscuits?
Sugar-free digestive biscuits are a variation of the classic digestive biscuits but with a twist. As the name suggests, these biscuits are free from added sugars or are made with alternative sweeteners. Traditional digestive biscuits typically contain sugar as a primary ingredient, providing a sweet and satisfying taste. However, sugar-free digestive biscuits are crafted to offer a similar taste experience without the added sugar content.
The Benefits of Sugar-Free Digestive Biscuits
Dietary-Friendly: Sugar-free digestive biscuits are a great option for individuals following a sugar-restricted diet, such as those with diabetes or those trying to reduce their sugar intake. These biscuits allow you to enjoy a sweet treat without causing a spike in blood sugar levels.
Weight Management: Since sugar-free digestive biscuits are lower in calories compared to their sugary counterparts, they can be a valuable addition to a weight management plan. They offer a satisfying crunch and a touch of sweetness without derailing your healthy eating goals.
Digestive Health: Like traditional digestive biscuits, sugar-free variants often contain ingredients like whole wheat, oats, and fiber. These elements contribute to improved digestive health by promoting regular bowel movements and supporting gut health.
Controlled Cravings: Sugar-free digestive biscuits can help satisfy your sweet cravings in a controlled manner. By choosing biscuits with alternative sweeteners, you can enjoy a tasty snack while minimizing the impact on your overall sugar consumption.

Opt for biscuits with minimal additives and preservatives for a healthier choice.
2. Nutrition Profile
Check the nutrition label to assess the calorie content, carbohydrate count, and fiber content. Aim for biscuits that are low in calories and carbohydrates while providing a decent amount of fiber.
3. Taste and Texture
Taste is subjective, so it's a good idea to try different brands and flavors to find the ones that best suit your preferences. Some sugar-free digestive biscuits may have a slightly different taste or texture compared to their sugary counterparts, but many brands have perfected their recipes to offer an enjoyable experience.

Crush sugar-free digestive biscuits and mix them with melted butter or coconut oil. Press the mixture into a pie dish or ramekins to create a guilt-free crust for your favorite desserts, such as cheesecake or pudding.
4. Dipping Delights
Dunk sugar-free digestive biscuits into a cup of hot tea, coffee, or a glass of almond milk for a delightful and comforting treat. The biscuits soften slightly, releasing their flavors and complementing your beverage of choice.

Getting Started with Healthy Baking
Healthy baking can mean many different things. What is right for you may not be right for someone else and it is all about exploring the options to find your own balance.
What is Healthy Baking?
Baking, by default, encompasses the very things that we aren't 'supposed' to eat when following a healthy diet. Bread is the big one, and the subject of its place in our diet is an emotive one. Do we give up bread entirely? Or do we buy better bread, make our own bread, buy better flour, go gluten free? Maybe sourdough is the way to go? Sticking with the savoury theme, we enter territory that for many of us may not even come under the radar. Most of us can get through life without a cheeky sausage roll or slice of quiche. Right? By and large, when it comes to the savoury stuff we are talking pastry. And then there is cake. And possibly biscuits. In fact, definitely biscuits. ALL the sweet things. What do these things all have in common? Well there's flour. And there's sugar. There are also vegan considerations such as fats, dairy, and eggs. Already a minefield of possibilities right there. Yet there is one good rule of thumb that covers all healthy baking. Actually, there are two. - Making it yourself. Baking as a verb, not a noun. An action, not a thing. Not only does this give you full control over what you put into it, but it instantly becomes more mindful. - Use whole, unrefined, natural ingredients. Organic where possible. From there, you can pick your own poisons; as it were. First and foremost, healthy baking is all about real food.
Ingredients for Healthy Baking
Most classic baking is centred around refined flour and refined sugar. Not only do these create structure and texture, but they also provide a blank canvas of neutral flavour on which to build. Which is great. But the fact that they are entirely devoid of nutrition is not. We need some new building blocks for our bakes. Exploring unrefined flours and unrefined sugars seems like a good place to begin. And so it follows that these will involve entirely new textures and flavours. As well as impose some structural limitations.
Sugar in Healthy Baking
Bread aside, when it comes to the question of healthy bakes, finding alternatives to refined sugar is often the number one priority. The entire philosophy of healthy baking rests upon whole, natural ingredients which automatically excludes artificial sweeteners, even those with 'natural' credentials such as stevia or xylitol. We like to use honey or maple syrup, and dried fruits such as dates or raisins, but when actual crystallised sugar is required then coconut sugar is an excellent alternative. It is wise to remember that all forms of sugar (unrefined or otherwise) are still just that. Sugar. Refined sugar, especially alongside refined flour and other nutritionally empty ingredients, causes blood sugar to spike dramatically. Easy to overconsume, this excess then gets stored as fat. More natural forms of sugar still impact blood sugar levels, and still come with the same amount of calories, yet alongside other ingredients such as nuts, wholegrains and seeds, the sugar will be absorbed more slowly and provide more nutritional benefits. Couple this with the fact that if you consciously remove all sources of unrefined sugar (hidden and unhidden) from your diet then you will find that your taste for sweetness changes. It will take far less sweetness to satisfy your taste buds (and your cravings) which means you can add far less sugar to your healthy bakes. Natural alternatives to refined sugar *Just as a quick note for comparison below white sugar has a GI of about 65. Coconut Sugar Although available as both a crystallised sugar, and a liquid syrup, coconut sugar really comes into its own when you need a direct replacement for sugar. It has a deep golden colour that gives a toffee like sweetness. Its flavour is not as robust as you may expect from the colour. Whilst it looks almost like dark muscovado, the taste is more similar to golden caster sugar. It has far more depth though. Coconut sugar has an abundance of trace nutrients and a lower GI (35) than most sugars and many fruits. Honey Honey is very sweet, and has a GI (50) to match. A little does go along way, and whilst it will not behave as sugar in all instances, it will caramelise nicely if you want to create something like caramelised almonds for a praline. Because honey is a syrup it will add sweetness, and moisture, to bakes but won't add structure. Like in a meringue, for example. Or a Victoria sponge. Maple Syrup Maple syrup has a higher GI than honey, and has a more robust flavour. It is also more liquid, than viscous honey. In recipes, the same rules as honey apply and other than changing the flavour profile they can be used interchangeably. They also work well together, if you wanted just a hint of the maple flavour for example. Try our thick, dark, organic maple syrup Dates Whole dates, because of their fibre content, have a much lower GI (40) than sugar but this does increase once they are pureed. Dates have stellar nutritional credentials however and are an excellent addition to bakes, adding fibre as well as a toffee like sweetness. Although dates can be added chopped, they are particularly useful when made into a puree. In this way they add sweetness, moisture, and act as a binder too. Interestingly you can use raisins in the same way. Dates do need to be matched well with bakes that suit, as they can be quite robust and are always noticeably date. Our raw pitted dates are sun-dried and 100% organic Other Dried Fruits Adding dried fruits directly into your mix also increases the sweetness of the final bake, and may even mean that you can cut down on the amount of other sugar that may be in the recipe. Many dried fruits benefit from soaking in water for 10 minutes to make them soft and plump. Try adding our organic dried cranberries Or these organic dried wild blueberries Sharp yet sweet organic dried sour cherries
Flour in healthy baking
There are two sides to the question of flour in healthy baking and, nutritionally speaking, three camps that you can fall under. The two sides are obviously gluten-free and not gluten-free. Yet it is not always that simple. If you can tolerate gluten (even just to a certain degree) then this poses a possible dilemma. Do you simply give up gluten anyway as, let's face it, you feel great without it. Or do you experiment with other, better quality wheat and gluten grain flours? Because going completely gluten free can be really challenging; especially when it comes to the finer things in life (most of which involve flour). Maybe sourdough is actually the answer to all your breadmaking prayers. All of the above are reasonable considerations when exploring your own nutritional boundaries and food preferences. Gluten Free Flours We cover this subject in detail in our guide to gluten free flours. Alternatives to Refined Wheat Flour There are options beyond refined modern wheat flour, with its dodgy DNA, unrecognisable additives and 'improvers'. Not gluten-free, yet with far better credentials. And if you can tolerate them, then why not. They certainly offer the benefits of gluten which, in our haste to eliminate it, are often overlooked. At the end of the day, the goal is to find real, good food, that nourishes and supports us in both body and mind. Swings and roundabouts. Rye flour Rye flour has a unique sour flavour that can add real character to your baking. A good source of both soluble fibre (the same as in oats) and resistant starch, rye is said to be excellent for gut health. Rye has less gluten than wheat and can be tricky to work with so is best used as an additional flour in your bakes rather than the star of the show. Once you get used to working with rye, you may find it creeps into many of your recipes. Our wholemeal rye flour is certified 100% organic Spelt flour White spelt flour is a great alternative to wheat flour, that allows for the lightness of a white flour whilst still boosting the nutritional profile and with a bit of extra flavour and texture thrown in. You can always replace a portion of your white flour with wholemeal spelt and find the perfect balance between white and wholemeal for you, or your particular recipe. Replacing a quarter, or even a third is a good compromise. Just remember that the wholemeal portion requires not only a little more liquid, but it will take a good few minutes to absorb. Spelt performs in the same way as wheat flour, with a flavour that adds more character yet will not overwhelm. It is said to be easier to digest than wheat, as well as more nutritious. The weaker gluten makes it ideal for cakes and pastry, but spelt is great for bread too. If you are not entirely avoiding gluten yet want a better solution than modern wheat, then spelt is defo the way to go. Try our organic white spelt flour Try our organic wholemeal spelt flour Stoneground Wholemeal Flour Wheat flour is not always the enemy, and when it comes to baking (especially bread) nothing performs quite like it. Choosing an organic, sustainably grown, and stoneground wheat flour will give you a far better chance of finding wheat flour that is closer to the traditional wheat flour that nature intended. Our stoneground wholemeal flour is certified 100% organic In this article we have explored healthy alternatives for just two of the key ingredients in baking. We hope that this serves as a useful introduction to the possibilities that are out there when it comes to using more natural ingredients that better support your health.

Diabetes-Friendly Delights By Anmol: Discovering the Perfect Healthy Biscuits for Diabetic Individuals
Living with diabetes doesn't mean you have to give up on indulging in delicious treats. In fact, with the right knowledge and ingredients, you can enjoy tasty biscuits while keeping your blood sugar levels in check. In this blog post, we'll learn about Anmol’s Best Healthy Biscuits In India specially designed for people with diabetes.
Understanding the Needs of Diabetic Individuals
Before diving into the details, let's take a moment to understand the specific needs of diabetic individuals. When it comes to biscuits, it's crucial to focus on ingredients that have a minimal impact on blood sugar levels. Anmol Industries is known for using low-glycaemic index (GI) ingredients, whole grains, and natural sweeteners in their recipes.
Almond Flour for an ideal Maida Substitute: Almond flour is an excellent choice for diabetic-friendly biscuits due to its low carbohydrate content and high nutritional value. Each of Anmol’s healthy biscuit variants combines almond flour, eggs, a natural sweetener like stevia or monk fruit, and a touch of vanilla extract for flavour.
Oatmeal for an ideal Maida Substitute: Oats are rich in fiber and known for their slow-release carbohydrates, making them a diabetic-friendly ingredient. You can choose a variety that includes rolled oats, a small amount of whole wheat flour, cinnamon, and a sugar substitute like erythritol or xylitol.
Flaxseed for an ideal Maida Substitute: Flaxseeds are a powerhouse of nutrients and healthy fats, making them a great addition to diabetic-friendly biscuits. You can ask for recipe in the comment section combining ground flaxseeds, almond flour, an egg, a natural sweetener, and optional add-ins like chopped nuts or dried fruits.
Coconut Flour for an ideal Maida Substitute: Coconut flour is low in carbohydrates and high in fiber, making it an excellent choice for diabetic biscuits. A pack of biscuit featuring coconut flour, a sugar substitute, and a hint of coconut extract would be a delightful tropical twist.
Cinnamon Spice For That Extra Kick: Cinnamon is a diabetes-friendly spice that may help improve insulin sensitivity. Indulge in Top Biscuits In India that combines whole wheat flour, ground cinnamon, a natural sweetener, and a touch of nutmeg for added warmth and flavour.
When it comes to choosing diabetic-friendly biscuits, here are some tips to keep in mind:
Use Low-Glycemic Index (GI) Ingredients: Opt for ingredients that have a minimal impact on blood sugar levels. Choose whole grains, such as whole wheat flour or oats, as they have a lower glycemic index compared to refined flour.
Replace Refined Sugar: Select natural sugar substitutes or alternative sweeteners instead of refined sugar. Some examples include stevia, monk fruit extract, erythritol, or xylitol. Be mindful of the recommended quantities, as some sugar substitutes may have a laxative effect in larger amounts.
Increase Fiber Content: Incorporate high-fiber ingredients into your biscuit choices. Fiber helps slow down the absorption of carbohydrates, which can help stabilize blood sugar levels. Whole grains, flaxseeds, and nuts are excellent sources of fiber.
Control Portion Sizes: Pay attention to portion sizes to manage carbohydrate intake. Even with diabetic-friendly ingredients, consuming large quantities can still affect blood sugar levels. Stick to smaller-sized biscuits and enjoy them in moderation.
Experiment with Alternative Flours: Explore alternative flours like almond flour, coconut flour, or flaxseed meal. These flours are lower in carbohydrates compared to traditional wheat flour and can add nutritional value to your biscuits.
Enhance Flavors Naturally: Instead of relying on excessive amounts of sugar or artificial flavorings, use natural flavorings like vanilla extract, almond extract, or spices such as cinnamon or nutmeg to add depth and taste to your biscuits.
Add Healthy Fats: Look for heart-healthy fats in your packaging details. Ingredients like nuts, seeds, and avocado oil can contribute to a more balanced nutritional profile and provide a feeling of satiety.
Be Mindful of Total Carbohydrate Content: While using diabetic-friendly ingredients is important, it's still crucial to keep track of the total carbohydrate content of your biscuits. This will help individuals with diabetes manage their carbohydrate intake effectively.
Seek Professional Advice: If you have specific dietary concerns or are unsure about ingredient substitutions, consult a registered dietitian or healthcare professional who specializes in diabetes management. They can provide personalized guidance based on your individual needs.
Test and Adjust: Diabetes management is highly individualized. Test your blood sugar levels after consuming the biscuits to see how your body responds. This will help you gauge the impact and adjust your recipes as needed.
Remember, diabetic-friendly biscuits can still contribute to carbohydrate intake, so it's essential to monitor portion sizes, consider overall dietary balance, and work within your recommended nutritional guidelines. A pro Tip - Enjoying Biscuits with a Diabetic-Friendly Lifestyle: Here is a pro tip on how to enjoy biscuits as part of a balanced diabetic-friendly lifestyle. We suggest you pair your healthy biscuits with protein-rich snacks like Greek yogurt or nut butter to slow down the absorption of carbohydrates. Along with this, we would recommend you to practice portion control and mindful eating.
Conclusion: Living with diabetes doesn't mean giving up on enjoying tasty treats. With tips shared in this blog post, you can relish delicious biscuits while keeping your blood sugar levels stable. Remember to prioritize whole grains, low-glycemic index ingredients, and natural sweeteners to indulge in diabetic-friendly delights.
