Your baking game just got a whole lot stronger and a tad sweeter – without the calories! Xlear Inc. has developed Lite&Sweet, a natural sweetener that contains zero grams net carbs and only 3 calories per teaspoon, all with the same sweet taste of sugar! The only thing better than packing a lunch with fresh baked cookies is knowing that they are health-savvy and made with xylitol instead of sugar.
Xylitol is extremely beneficial to oral and upper respiratory health, and is actually recommended by dentists! Unlike other sugar substitutes, Lite&Sweet contains no additives, flow-agents or fillers and can be added in practically any recipe. Cutting down on calories doesn’t have to mean sacrificing your favorite dessert! It’s never been easier to make cakes, pies, sorbets and even smoothies without experiencing that bitter aftertaste that is often times inevitable when using other artificial zero-calories sweeteners.
My thoughts: I was sent samples of Lite and Sweet to review. While I have not baked with it yet, I have made quite a few delicious smoothies. I recently began a diet where I am cutting bread, most fat and sugar from my diet and I have lost eleven pounds in a month.
My problem is, I miss sweets, especially chocolate pudding. Thankfully, I found a recipe online that only requires 3 ingredients for delicious, fat-free, sugar-free chocolate pudding! I substitute the sugar with Lite & Sweet. I make this chocolate pudding with my son, Braxton and he loves it!
