Cakes, cookies and ice cream without the sugar

Cakes and cookies are our two biggest groups of recipes, followed by cheesecake, ice cream, pies, bars and brownies, with fudge, mousse and fat bombs at the smaller end. Structure comes from almond and coconut flour, cream cheese, heavy cream and eggs instead of wheat and sugar, and sweetness from erythritol, allulose or stevia.

Most homemade keto desserts go wrong at the sweetener. Straight erythritol tastes cool on the tongue and can turn gritty, so we blend it with other sweeteners when texture matters and say in the recipe which one to use and in what form. Macros still matter: sugar-free does not mean calorie-free. Make sure to always measure the macros and create serving sizes that are suited for you.
