The cakes are sweetened with a sugar alcohol called xylitol.
I was seriously thinking about adding a couple weekly "sugar cheat meals". Although I enjoyed the raw dessert I had yesterday, it wasn't the same as having a piece of the real thing. It's only been 36 hours and I was already feeling sorry for myself.
Not anymore.
I'm going back to Whole Foods and buying up their entire inventory of these cakes. I'll allow myself 2 a day, topped with some whipped coconut milk. The only other sugar source will be from fruit. I'l officially ditching honey and maple syrup.
Thank you little low glycemic cakes!

As of today I'm not a refined sugar eater anymore. Here's what I had for dessert..
Raw chocolate ganache sweetened with maple syrup. It's topped with chilled coconut cream (no sugar) and fruit.

It's July 4th
I gave up grains on Memorial Day. On the 4th of July I'm ditching sugar. First I'll start with the refined stuff, then I'll get off the rest.
Ack!
