[QUOTE="Goonergal, post: 1655870, member: 368709"] Hi all After posting yesterday I succumbed to two 10g bags of Penn State sour cream and chive pretzels on the train. BG was exactly the same 2 hours later, but have been slightly higher than normal all day today. Coming home to a very cold flat I also experimented with making some low carb hot chocolate - teaspoon dark cocoa powder, 250 ml unsweetened almond milk, teaspoon of Erythritol and a dash of cream. Didn’t quite hit the spot - not chocolatey or creamy enough, so will need to refine the recipe. Today was a fasting day, so no breakfast or lunch. Dinner was fathead pizza with pepperoni topping followed by 4 squares Lindt 90%. Plan to do a bit of baking (never been a baker) and paging [USER=52911]@maglil55[/USER] and [USER=323454]@ziggy_w[/USER] for advice. If a recipe suggests 200g caster sugar, what quantity of Erythritol should I replace it with? I’m not aiming for it to be too sweet as I seem to be losing my sweet tooth. If it helps, this is the recipe I want to adapt: [URL]https://www.nigella.com/recipes/chocolate-olive-oil-cake[/URL] Thanks! [/QUOTE]
