Dietetic and cooking techniques: sugars and sweets

.:Preparing healthier desserts

Remember the following when preparing desserts:

Sweets that contain fruits not only have a greater number of nutrients but also have a lower energy content.

Sweets that contain cream, condensed milk, butter or margarine usually contain a higher energy content.

Do not use too much sugar when making sweets or beverages such as coffee, tea, milk and juices. Too much sugar conditions taste buds to a high threshold for sweet tastes.

Strive for the opposite conditioning. Gradually reduce the amount of sugar you use in your preparations.
