    Low Carb Mummy on a mission!

    Sounds like you have developed some great ideas. In our house we make a mean custard (from scratch, no birds eye here!) with just a little stevia or rice malt syrup. It is super simple and super quick. I have found by embracing full fat milk to make custard you can get away with just a...

    That'd be great, thank you! My friends generally aren't low carb and my immediate family get dragged into whatever I do as the kitchen is my zone ;) They are generally happy to be fed though and as long as it is tasty there are no complaints.

    What isn't better covered in pastry! Im joking. So the point of this blog is to provide recipes for people who want a low carb alternative to things they like plus some different ideas (very similar to Ewelina's site). It is also meant to have a family slant to inspire people to cook low carb...

    Thank you Bluetit1802. We do get a little bonkers here and there. I have played about with pastry for a while and I have a version that I am happy enough with to be using it in recipes. Watch out for my pumpkin pie and pecan pie recipes. It is only good for pressing into a pie dish so no good...

    Chocolate is very high up my priority list so it will most definitely feature on a regular basis! I have a chocolate bomb dessert to write up so look out for that. Your chocolate dessert sounds like a winner to me though!!

    Yes I do follow a few and a few of the sugar free ones too (especially the kids ones). I also follow 'normal' food blogs. I could/do waste a lot of time browsing recipes whether on a blog or in a book. They are all great sources of inspiration for new bakes and creations (and on regular food...

    Hi. I will be doing some new creations (Ive got some keen taste testers lined up to make sure nothing too crazy sneaks on) and some conversions as theres a good few things I just can't do without.

    It sounds like a good book. I tend to avoid dried fruit altogether as it is just full of sugar (I am a bit of a medjool date fan so I still treat myself here and there) I use stevia instead and occasionally rice malt syrup (it is 100% fructose free but still packs a big carbohydrate hit). Cake...

    I was a little sceptical about baking without flour to begin with but once you get used to it then it just becomes normal. I use a lot of almond flour with a little bit of buckwheat flour and coconut flour thrown in here and there. Its definitely not the same as baking with regular wheat flour...

    So, I don't have diabetes (although several of my family members and friends do which has given me a tiny insight into life with diabetes). I have been asked to write this food blog because I am trying to raise my family on a low carb low sugar diet which in combo with being a keen baker is...

    Hi everyone! My name is Lissie and I love baking. It is my go to whatever my mood, whatever the weather or occasion (often no occasion needed) and wherever I happen to be. It’s not just baking though, I enjoy cooking in general especially when I’m cooking for other people. I’m a Mum of two...
