Might not be as difficult as I thought. Cornflour could be subbed by Xanthan Gum or oat fibre if needed. I'd tend to use Monk Fruit for sweetness.I have made a version of this.
I just used onion and tinned tomatoes and stock as a base, then added cream and sugar til it tasted like Heinz.
The amount of sugar needed was, frankly, horrific!
That was way back before I was cutting carbs as I do now.
Nowadays I wouldn't want so much sweetness, or I would use erythritol, if I was feeding normal ppl.
But unfortunately, if you want a near authentic Heinz cream of tom taste, then you would have to go for the high sweetness.
This is the official ingredient list, taken from a supermarket website

- Water,
- Modified Cornflour,
- Sugar,
- Rapeseed Oil,
- Dried Skimmed Milk,

- Spice Extracts,
- Herb Extract
Hi all I’m back from an amazing few days in Wales. Good to be away for a bit and we had a very warm welcome to Wales and amazing weather - hols included picnics in mountains, two sea swims, seeing dolphins playing, a cliff top hike, a visit to a capability brown nt gardens/ Park and castle and a catch up with OHs brother and partner plus best ever cottage and great stop overs at borders towns including the books capital Hay on Wye and some black and white villages on way over and back! Really best hols ever and I count myself as very very lucky.
Will read posts later - just wanted to quickly log so back to it! I also got distracted by tag from @Goonergal on forum highlighting montezumas sale and ended up buying more 100% choc plus a few gifts for family birthdays to spend enough to get free delivery!
Over past 5 days I stayed broadly low carb but ate more generously plus took some DGF goodies with me
Breakfasts all days except today bacon and egg - no brekkie today
Lunches mainly salads with ham and cheese in picnic boxes but today a brunch of smoked salmon and scrambled eggs
Dinners chicken or lamb or steak or pork with variety of salads followed by DGF puddings with cream followed by decaff coffee and some 100% choc - peppermint oil version ( sadly a new delicious variety not in their sale!)
A few afternoons also had coffee and DGF millionaires shortbread- can’t tell you how nice it tasted with flask of coffee after a swim whilst sat on a wall watching dolphins play in the sun in New Quay in Wales! Paradise. also had Bombay Sapphire gin with soda ( it was our Sapphire anniversary) and prossecco over the hols.
My DGF stocks are now depleted so made a fresh order- well my 65th birthday is coming up soon !
We got a lot of books from Hay I’m a reading addict so it’s one of my fave places.Glad to hear that you had such a good time in Wales. It's a lovely country AND a chance to stop off in Hay on Wye. Did you buy any books? I would probably have gone home with a car full of them.
Ooo, ooo, oooo can we do spider stories.....please.....please
Today:
B - Bowl of Honey Nut Shredded Wheat and whole milk
L - Sausage sarnies (4 rounds of bread), Crunchie, packet cheese and onion crisps, a dozen grapes. AND pork pie with egg in the middle - can not remember what they are called -----old age and forgetfulness come together
Bloods have been between 5 on waking to 6.4 now. Pretty level
