Synopsis The range of low calorie Sugar Free recipes in this book have been created to appeal to the sweetest tooth without any unhealthy consequences, light and airy soufflés, silky mousses, comforting traditional Indian sweets, luscious fruit desserts cloaked in satiny custards and creams (low-cal of course), nourishing liquid energy boosters and thirst - quenchers with zing, moist cakes and delicious cheesecakes! In other worlds this book is the lean answer to every health and calorie conscious dessert-o-holic's dream. While almost all the recipes are very low-calorie and low fat, we have included a few recipes (usually containing coconut or khoya) with a comparatively higher calorie/fat content. A book on desserts and drinks would be incomplete without catering to the taste buds of our coastal and North Indian cousins! We suggest you reserve these recipes for special occasions; and console yourself with the thought that were you to make the same dessert with all the traditional ingredients in the quantities recommended by the original recipe, your calorie intake would sky-rocket to at least double! Sugar Free is the proof that, in the lexicon of the calories conscious, the terms sweetness and light, far from being mutually exclusive, can be packed into a tiny measure or pellet, which present a healthy means of satisfying those cravings for something sweet.
