Customer Reviews

No good for cooks outside the USA
This book is of no use to people in Britain, nor I suspect anywhere else outside the USA.

It calls for very unusual ingredients, which you would be unlikely to have in the house, and would certainly have great difficulty finding in the shops. I go to a lot of different health food stores for my shopping, and none of them sell reduced acid orange juice concentrate, for example, or date sugar. The author also specifies particular brands (of fruit juice, potato mix - whatever that is - etc.) which are of course not available over here.

On top of that all the meaurements are in CUPS. A US cup is not the same volume as a UK cup. The oven temperatures are also in degrees Fahrenheit only, with no Celsius of Gas Mark alternatives.

Don't bother with this book - try something by Sarah Brown instead.

Good sweet tooth satisfying recipes for restricted diets
The recipes in this book are very tasty. They are excellent for people who need to eliminate refined sugar from their diets. As most of the recipes call for fruit juice concentrates or other sugar sources one must pay careful attention to the diabetic exchange guidelines.

My favorite recipes are the muffins and breads. I purchased the book to reduce the amount of sugar in my childrens diet as I felt it triggered hyperactivity.

Most ingredients are available at the super market. A few require a trip to a well stocked health food store. The blueberry muffins are - quick and easy.

pecan pie recipe
I made this pie for my diabetic husband for Christmas. He could not tell the difference, thank you for such a gift.
