Although I still try to do baking with better sugar alternatives, my daily chocolate habit is not so good. Good luck to you. I'd love to hear how you get on with this.Emmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10894865592266996002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7259440915388487276.post-9348888703876244722011-03-11T23:27:58.696+13:002011-03-11T23:27:58.696+13:00Hi Emma!

I've been ignoring the sugar issue for a while now, and you've inspired me to start on a path of eliminating the processed stuff. I'll be following your blog and looking forward to reading more! :)<br />ParisParishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12307511634570448377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7259440915388487276.post-32647739550419302412010-07-19T21:56:49.824+12:002010-07-19T21:56:49.824+12:00Hey N.

I got inspired by you and made afghans today with mashed banana, coconut and 2T jaggery. They are yummy!<br /><br />Also, I was checking out Naturally Knocked Up some more and Donielle suffers from PICOS, which is how she became interested in nutrition in the first place.<br /><br />Em xxEmmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10894865592266996002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7259440915388487276.post-31141029813428397922010-07-19T21:20:47.916+12:002010-07-19T21:20:47.916+12:00Yay for you Em!

Heavenly chocolate cake at Anna's made me realise that no amount of substituting will compare to the real thing. BUT! The evidence for a sugar-free life is still compelling so I will stick at it! <br /><br />xx NAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7259440915388487276.post-12052730980274197682010-07-18T09:05:05.035+12:002010-07-18T09:05:05.035+12:00Hey Andie - I would probably use rapadura for that...Hey Andie - I would probably use rapadura for that, because it's such a small amount and rapadura has more nutrients than refined sugar.

I also melted some butter and honey together to mix with the topping ingredients and used extra desiccated coconut and flour to replace the bulk missing with the sugar.Emmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10894865592266996002noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7259440915388487276.post-90112082434332620342010-07-17T22:24:46.729+12:002010-07-17T22:24:46.729+12:00i am very impressed!

I have a question about tomatoes. often in recipes when you use pureed tomoato (like canned etc) it calls for a little sugar to sweeten and help with flavour. Which replacement would best suit this do you think?Andienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7259440915388487276.post-22835397546153626862010-07-17T17:40:18.481+12:002010-07-17T17:40:18.481+12:00good plan Emma, but how do I make my apple crumble...good plan Emma, but how do I make my apple crumble tonight with no sugar in it?Heather Dunlopnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7259440915388487276.post-77582385603889798112010-07-16T18:50:31.423+12:002010-07-16T18:50:31.423+12:00You're so brave Emma!
