Cranberries, in particular, taste far more ‘fruity” if cooked or served with fruit sugar. And as fruit sugar is suitable for use by Type II diabetics, it also means that the whole family can enjoy this easy to make sauce, which tastes really delicious.
Fruisana Fruit Sugar is pure fructose, which is a natural constituent of many fruits and vegetables. Unlike artificial sweeteners, fructose has no aftertaste – it is made entirely from natural ingredients and contains no chemicals. As well as being perfect for use in hot and cold drinks, it can be used for all manner of recipes.
Fruisana offers numerous health benefits to slimmers, sportsmen and women, and non-insulin-dependent diabetics. It provides longer lasting energy thus reducing the temptation to snack, and with its low GI* (only 19), it also makes an excellent recipe ingredient for anyone following a low GI* diet.
Do try this delicious sauce – you can make it in advance and freeze it, or it will keep in the fridge for a few days.
