made the lemon cheesecake, was told by many that it was the best cheesecake they had ever eaten (trust me, not because I'm a good cook whatsoever). the xylitol makes the cheesecake sweet but not overpowering, as many cheesecakes tend to be. perfect blend of health and taste, excited to try to make other desserts from it
Sweet, but not gluten free

I was very excited to get this book but quickly realized that I would have been better off purchasing a gluten free cook book and substituting xylitol for the sugar. The recipes look amazing but I can't make 80% of them. However, I'm anxious to try the ice cream and there are several fillings and frostings which I can use. Also the recipe for condensed milk is a valuable find.
Innovative Cook Book

I am really enjoying and benefiting from Karen Edward's cookbook. I have been cooking and baking with Xylitol for over a year, trying to adapt favorite recipes for my father who is diabetic. Karen's cookbook has now enabled me to bake healthy deserts that my father really enjoys. Karen has tried and proven all her recipes on family and friends, so I can use her recipes with confidence. She is such a professional baker, but her recipes are easy to follow. Everything I have made is very delicious. If you like lemony things, you will flip over her Lemon Pecan Cookies. I love to eat them warm right out of the oven. I linger over every bite to savor the lemon zest as it melts in my mouth. If that makes your mouth water, then I encourage you to buy her second edition of "Sweeten Your Life The Xylitol Way."

This book contains wondeful recepies that are not just "sugar free", but also take in consideration that white flour is bad for us also. So many claim to be healthy, but then use white flour as an ingredient! Xylitol is a healthy sweetener, used a lot in other countires, even actually GOOD for us! Put your foot down and say no to sugar consumption, especially for our children. Xylitol is also great for our teeth and resporatory system. Learn about it. Check out xlear.com Thanks for listening.
