Tag: Dessert

Our dessert section covers sugar-free, keto, paleo, vegan, and gluten-free recipes, including mug cakes, cheesecake, lemon bars, chocolate chip cookies, and desserts kept under 100 calories per serving. Every recipe lists full macros, net carbs where relevant, and swap notes for common allergens.

Nutrition is calculated per serving against the Nutritionix database and USDA FoodData Central, with sugar alcohols subtracted from net carbs the way most keto readers count them. Cards flag added sugar in grams, total fiber, saturated fat, and portion size, and we test glycemic-friendly sweeteners (erythritol, allulose, monk fruit, stevia) rather than defaulting to sucralose.

Recipes are developed and tested by our Food Editor Damla Sengul in our Wayne, NJ kitchen, with Latin American desserts from Andrea and Mirian Montalvo. Diet-specific dessert plans are reviewed by a Registered Dietitian on our team (Brenda Peralta, Kerly Cordova, Marita Radloff, or Karolina Peterova) and medically reviewed by Franco Cuevas, MD.
