TOP 4 QUESTIONS 1) What makes your products sweet? Do you use artificial sweeteners?
The sweetness comes primarily from the all-natural, non-caloric sweetener called erythritol. It is made through the natural fermentation of carbohydrate sources such as sugar beet or corn (not to be confused with corn syrup). Erythritol exists naturally at low levels in fruits like pears, melons and grapes as well as in fermented foods such as soy sauce and cheese. Although defined as a sugar alcohol, erythritol is neither sugar nor alcohol. Erythritol does not promote tooth decay, is digestive-friendly, and is suitable for people with diabetes. We do not use any artificial sweeteners such as aspartame, saccharin, or sucralose. In addition, our cakes do not contain the sugar alcohols maltitol or sorbitol. Please see the section on Sugar Alcohols for more information. 2) These cakes contain a lot of fiber. Where is it coming from?
The majority of fiber is from inulin which is a soluble fiber derived from chicory root. Additional fiber comes from any vegetables, fruits or nuts in the cakes. Please visit our section on "Dietary Fiber" for further information. 3) Are your products safe for people with diabetes?
The significantly lower net carbohydrate levels and high amounts of dietary fiber make our cakes a great dessert alternative for people with diabetes. However, each individual metabolizes food at a different rate so people with diabetes should measure how a new product impacts blood sugar levels through diligent blood glucose monitoring. 4) What is net carbohydrate (aka "net carbs")?
Net carbohydrate refers to the amount of carbohydrate in a food serving that is readily digestible. It is calculated by subtracting Dietary Fiber and Sugar Alcohol (which are slow to non-digestible carbohydrate) from Total Carbohydrate. Please see our section on "Net Carbs" for further details. |
