“We never use unrefined sugar or artificial sweeteners in any of our cakes “
When you’re not pureeing veggies, you’re scanning the ingredients on organic food pouches for your little one. Let’s face it – your little person is eating a more nutritious diet than you are these days!
If your child tends to have post sugar meltdowns, you can prevent them by tempering the amount he gets at any one time—controlling portion size, using fruit juices instead of refined sugar, choosing treats low in sugar—and by making sure he eats something heartier along with sweets.
So why not make a healthy cake that tastes just as good. With our creative baking and sweet alternatives like bananas, apples, dates, zucchini and pineapples you can avoid the processed sugar high!
Refined sugar comes from sugar cane or sugar beets, which are processed to extract the sugar. How the body metabolizes the sugar in fruit differs from how it metabolizes the refined sugar added to processed foods. The body breaks down refined sugar rapidly, causing blood sugar levels to skyrocket. No, I don’t think it’s bad to have a slice of processed, sugary, white-flour birthday cake every now and then once your baby is old enough but be mindful that refined sugar can cause sugar meltdowns. Also be aware that your baby’s digestion may find it difficult to process.**
