Caramel Stevia Liquid - The Diabetes Kitchen

Caramel Stevia Liquid

Our friend Nikki, author of the T1 Friendly Foodie shares this delicious recipe!

Feeling like a caramel Christmas, I decided to try a sugar free Panna Cotta for 2019. 

Panna Cotta is one of the easiest and fastest desserts you can make, it takes no time at all, requires very few ingredients and doesn’t leave you with a sink full of pots and pans to wash up. 

Using only four ingredients, if you’re in a rush this Christmas, give my sugar free Caramel Panna Cottaa go.

My secret ingredient  

For those of you who follow my blog, you know that Stevia powder is my sweetener of choice. I use the all natural version which is great as it isn’t full of hidden chemicals. 

But, Caramel Stevia liquid is like nothing else. If you haven’t tried it, you must give it a go – it tastes amazing and you only need the tiniest amount as it is very sweet. 

You do have to go to a health food store to buy it, as it’s not available in standard supermarkets. 

You can literally use this stuff on anything. I add it to ice-cream, or cakes, even milkshakes. 

It’s particularly brilliant when I get home from work and am craving something sweet but don’t want all the added calories of ice-cream, chocolate or cake. 

So, I add a dash of Caramel Stevia to my coffee and it really hits the mark!
