Make A Sugarless Cake
Make A Sugarless Cake Easily From Mix
Here’s an easy way to make a sugarless cake, with sugarless frosting. This is more information than just a recipe. I think it helps to understand what changes in a recipe when going sugarless with it. This is advice you can use to modify your own recipe or make a sugarless cake from any boxed cake mix. For mixes that make you add the sugar. It may take a few tries to get the baking technique right. You may want to try different sugar alternatives to discover which you like best for which kind of cake.
What changes when you replace sugar in a cake recipe with an alternative sweetener?
First, to replace sugar the proportion of sweetener changes. Unless you buy a sweetener that says it works on a 1 to 1 ratio with regular sugar, you may need less volume of alternative sweetener. Syrups and concentrated liquid forms will be hard to compare.
For example, Hershey’s sugar free chocolates are sweetened with maltitol syrup. Maltitol has a higher sweetness density than powered sugar, so a bit of vegetable filler is added so the size remains the same as the standard chocolate bars.
Replacing sugar with liquid sweetener
There’ a potential benefit to using liquid form. It can make the cake moist, or even juicy. The first way to try this is to use fruit juice. Stir in pear juice, white grape, apple, any citrus and the water in it moistens the end result The same goes for honey. So if that works, you can surly use sugarless syrup and flavored syrups at a similar amount. Pure maple syrup is good also as long as there are zero added sugars, Most “maple syrup” is actually flavored corn syrup.
Fruit and berry puree
Simple natural sugars can be used sparingly to make sugar free sweets that are still safe for the KETO diet. You can use unsweetened applesauce to your regular cake mix instead of adding sugar. You can also use blueberry, strawberry or banana purees as a flavored alternative sweetener. This will also make a good, moist, sugarless cake from any basic cake mix.
Preparation
You need to make food-based sweetness separately and add to the sugarless cake mix at the point when you would add the sugar, or else it will not blend smoothly or completely. For going sugarless you need not worry about compensating the other ingredients like butter, eggs and milk. Unless you want to. The sugar sweetening is all you need to replace. For KETO you can try gluten free flour, or low-carb alternative grain or nut flour too. Then you can save some more carbs which can make room for more sweetening.
Adding a little extra spice can help make up for a lower level of sweetness. Cinnamon, saffron, vanilla, rind zest are often used flavor enhancers. This idea can help you reduce sweetener carbs enough to stay KETO friendly.
How much is needed to replace sugar to make a sugarless cake?
Some synthetic sweeteners are formulated to mix ingredient with enough inert filler that it can be used to replace sugar on a 1 cup to 1 cup basis. This is also true for brown rice malt syrup. Sucralose crystals are also 1 to 1 with sugar but have a high glucaric index, so not so good for KETO or diabetes. Most erythritol products are made to match sugar, granular xylitol too. Then there are the much more dense extracts like stevia (3tbsp to 1cp sugar) and monk fruit (3tsp to 1cup sugar) which is very dense sweetener. For food-based sweetener more is required. Honey (3/4cup to 1cup sugar) Maple Syrup (1/2cup to 1cup sugar) Molasses (3/4cup to 1cup sugar)
Fruit juice can replace up to half of the sugar in a recipe, but the rest must be there in dry, granular form either as sugar, or another substitute. Puree sweetening is also a partial replacement for 1/3 to 1/2 the sugar called for in the recipe.
Sweeteners that you should avoid
While I’m not going to spell out just why you should not consume synthetic “plastic sugars.” I have other posts for that, like this one about HFCS with more coming. For now let it suffice to list the varieties to should avoid. Don’t use saccharine, aspartame, and dextrose. Also stay away from corn syrup.
Sugarless frosting
This is easier for s KETO diet where fat is ok. You can simply add stevia or the substitute you like to butter. Or Use heavy whipping cream as a base and add sugar substitute or sugarless flavored syrup. I think ChocZero has the best sugarless, monk fruit sweetened flavor syrups made in he USA. se my promo code of Motiv8ionN8ion at checkout to save an extra 10%

Compare The Best Sugarless Orange Flavor Single Serve Packets
The first thing I advise anyone on a diet to do is this. Swap out the sugar laden carbonated beverages with sugarless, low calorie powdered water flavorings and energy drinks. You can save money with diet drink mixes. Especially when energy drinks in those cans cost 2.50 to 4 dollars each and a dollar or 2 can buy a 6-pack of single serve drink mix packets. They’re the cheapest sugarless beverage for low cal diet.
Carbonated beverages are bad for you. It’s like drinking carbon dioxide instead of inhaling it. It still gets into your bloodstream. So forget the Soda Stream machine. Mixing your own flavored water encourages recycling and trash minimalization. I use a glass bottle for mine. So if you are trying to lose weight, then this is a powerful strategy to use.

Comparing Sugarless Water Enhancement Flavorings
See me compare the top powdered energy drink packets in orange flavor. Testing each brand for content and value. Let’s compare the best sugarless drink alternatives that come in single serving packets. For this video I will focus on orange flavored water enhancers. Follow along while I test orange sugarless beverages for flavor, experience and value.
At the end of the video is a chart of content and valuation data. This pair of charts is repeated here so the entire charts are viewable. There are so many sugarless mix brands to chose from. This is a comparison of the top brands that are available in USA stores as of 2022.
The first 3 I tested are liquid form and the rest are single serve powdered drink packets. I’m looking for the most realistic orange flavor or best tasting citrus. I draw the division of flavors as fruity, sweet, or generic nondescript citric acid. I will mix all the test drinks with warm water. Rinse the glass bottle out twice before each sample. Because hot water dissolves powder faster.
Single serve sugarless drink mix instructions
The best way to mix is in a glass bottle. To start, fill it to 1/3 to 1/4 with water. Pour in the mx packet contents. Swirl it around to get the mixing action started. Then you can fill the bottle with a high pressure stream from the faucet. Allow the foam on top settle back into the mix before you drink. I don’t find that the squirt bottle flavorings give the full 20 to 24 servings in practical use. They do mix faster.

More about sugarless orange flavor packets
If you have an orange beverage that lacks good flavor I suggest you add half a squirt of the Starburst brand product, even to cover the taste of energy drinks. All the liquid flavorings tasted good with Kool Aid is the sweetest and Starburst is the most realistic in orange fruit flavoring. The Fit & Active from Aldi performed well too in comparison. Starburst and Skittles are based on the flavor of their chewy candies. While Sunkist, Crush, and Gatorade are based on bottles beverages. Tang and Kool Aid are traditional powdered drink mixes.
The store brands compared very well with the more established brands. All of these sugarless drink mixes cost much less than beverages you would buy in aluminum cans or plastic bottles. You will especially save money on these instead of buying energy drinks in the cans. Skittles is the best flavor balance between realistic fruit flavors and sweetness.
The Benefits of sugarless drink packets
Replacing Sugarless drink mix packets for your cans and plastic bottles has several advantages. You Save money Use a glass bottle and you prevent micro-plastic ingestion while reducing trash generated for beverages. Glass is more sterile and washable. A bottle washer can help. Powdered drinks can’t use HFCS (High Fructose Corn Syrup) for sweetening. Avoid carbonated beverages, which are like drinking carbon dioxide instead of breathing it.
About the charts
It’s posted on the GoingSugarless website, I omitted Citric Acid and Acesulfame Potassium because they were in all the drink mixes. Also it was too much text to fit neatly in the chart.
Comparing Sugarless Energy Drink Mixes
See what sugarless energy drink packets are available in US stores as of 2022. Follow along as I compare sugarless energy drink mixes that come in squirt bottle or single serve packet. I taste test for sweetness and realistic fruit flavor.
Energy drinks in this video come in 3 kinds. Caffeine powered, electrolyte hydration and other than caffeine powered. Energy drink ingredients may include Maltitol, Maltodextrin, Sucralose, Ginseng, Guarana, Stevia, Monk fruit, and B-vitamins. Aspartame is a nasty plastic sugar that should be avoided, so I bolded the names of the drink mixes that don’t include it.
Mio liquid energy flavoring gave the best balance of realistic flavor and stimulation. The 4C mix was the best powder without aspartame.
I include reviews of Gatorade and Pure Kick Citrus which are more like hydration drinks than energy drinks. I think they fit as more than just a water flavoring. They include electrolytes and that adds 2 good things. Many people are mineral deficient. For such people it can be energizing. Electrolyte drink mix compliments energy drinks. You can dehydrate and lose minerals due to the diuretic effects of caffeine. Also it gives you something else so you don’t just drink energy drinks all day long.

The White Chocolate Craze Of 2021
The White Chocolate Craze Of 2021
White chocolate is showing up everywhere this year. It’s a new flavor craze. Not just because white chocolate tastes wonderfully creamy, but because it takes on additional flavoring really well. This is something that is hard to do with dark chocolate candies. There is still plenty of room for innovative candies that are yet to be dreamed up. They can easily make them with sugarless alternative sweeteners at no loss of flavor, purity, and sweetness.
White Chocolate Is Showing Up All Over Your Favorite Candy Brands
White chocolate is being used as an outer covering, as in the Snickers bar. It can be the candy plus a sugar shell, as in M&Ms. Or it can be more like a candy bar. I am surprised that Ghirardelli, Lindt, and Nestle do not have anything in white chocolate. Nor do most sugarless chocolate brands like ChocoRite and Russel Stover’s.
None of these popular candies are being made in a sugarless version. When it happens, you will probably see it come from Reese’s, Hershey’s and maybe Ghirardelli’s. I expect M&M will come out with a peanut version too.
Three Top Candies You Wouldn’t Expect To Find In White Chocolate
This video shows how many of America’s favorite candy brands have a white chocolate version.
That was a fun video to make. I hope you enjoyed it enough to like, share and subscribe to my YouTube Channel and this web site.

Comparing The Top 5 Sugarless Peanut Butter Cups vs Reece’s Minis
The peanut butter cup is a true American chocolate candy sensation. That sweet, slightly chunky, peanut butter filling surrounded by a solid shell of chocolate. Everybody loves the Reece’s iconic original cup. For low carb snacks it is available in a sugar-free mini cup. Let’s compare it to some other sugarless peanut butter cups that are made by the top brands available in stores and online. I have brought them together for a comparison for taste, style and value.
So if you have a desire for something sweet without the sugar calories, I suggest you go with the Reece’s Sugar Free Minis and Choc Zero Milk Chocolate Cup.
For a more mature snacking experience you can try the SkinnyMe or Choc Zero Dark Chocolate Cup.
So that is the taste test and style comparison. Now let’s assess the overall value. Note that on per piece weight of Reece’s, I used 2 minis to match the weight per serving of the other non-mini peanut butter cups.

Here’s a chart of the value and info you want to know.
Here’s What’s Available In Sugarless Chocolate Candy
Go Sugar-free With Sugarless Chocolate Candy
Do you know what’s available in sugarless chocolate?
Read the report on sugarless, low carb chocolate bars These chocolates were found in Meijer, Wal-Mart, Super Target, with hit and miss availability in chain drug stores and dollar stores. Russel Stovers had the most locations, but were the most expensive and contained not enough chocolate for my liking.
Russell Stovers
Russel Stovers is committed to making the best variety of sugarless chocolate available in stores. They have a large display in any sugar free section at the market. So I tasted a series of bite sized confections just over the size of a quarter. All of them are just as sweet as if they were made with refined sugar. The only disappointing thing is, the chocolate is secondary to the fillings. Because their chocolate is just enough to be a covering shell.
Sugarless Chocolate Candy -Best In Show…
The Pecan Delight is my personal favorite, but all the varieties are superior quality. Enjoy the selection of peanut butter cup, mint, toffee, fudge, strawberry and more bite sized chocolate candies. Good treats, yet no pure chocolate bars. Primarily, I want to focus on chocolate candy in this video.
Their primary chocolate sweetener is Stevia. As you can see. The label shows that Maltitol is a leading ingredient in the chocolate portion. Then Maltitol syrup in the fillings. Because Stevia is much more potent by weight than Maltitol, a little does a lot.
So, our search of a true sugarless chocolate candy bar takes us to…
Reese’s
Reece’s Sugar-free peanut butter cups.
Weighing in as slightly larger than the Russell Stover’s peanut butter cup, this is a better way to go for your dollar. Sweeter, too. They chose Maltitol as the main sweetening agent.
There are also trace amounts of Sucralose and Polydextrose added to enhance the flavor of the Maltitol. You will find added sweetenings with Maltitol to create a unique taste. It may also help reduce the chance of excess Maltitol acting as a laxative when eaten in large portions.
Also, the process retains a negligible amount of sugars from the milk, peanuts and chocolate sap.
Hershey’s Chocolate
For a true sugar free chocolate bar we easily located the largest chocolate brand. I was surprised that their sugarless was not as sweet as their standard chocolate. I like how maltitol makes it creamy and smooth.
Hershey’s decided to sweeten with Maltitol plus a dash of Maltodextrin. Again, there is a tiny amount of sugar that comes with the milk and the cocoa itself.
It also has Polyglucitol -a Hydrogenated Starch Hydrolysate. Polyglucitol is a natural corn-based sweetener commonly used as the main base sweetener or as a filler.
Hershey’s uses it to maintain the same volume of chocolate with less mass from sugar in their sugar free bars.
*** Effective Way to Burn Fat With Ketosis
Twizzlers
Although it’s not sugar free chocolate, Twizzlers is included here because it represents a category of fruit juice sweetened candy. These are very satisfying for guiltless snacking.
Twizzlers are sweetened with Maltitol syrup and Sorbitol, the alcohol sugar known as Glucitol. It is a slow metabolizing form of glucose.
Another big chocolate brand is Nestle
There’s Nesquick with no added sugar and a 70% dark chocolate Kit Kat bar. Plus these nice sugarless caramels. I find no other option than their regular chocolate bar. Nestle is reported to have sugarless chocolate but not for stores in the USA. They don’t get much shelf space here.
Nestlé makes a new chocolate entirely from the cocoa fruit. Their formula uses the beans and their pulp as the only ingredients. Whole cocoa fruit sweetening avoids adding refined sugar.
Choc Zero
First of all, I’m glad I found Choc Zero. It’s sweetened with Monk Fruit Juice.
Now here’s a true sugarless chocolate bar. Keto compatible bark combines nuts and sugarless chocolate. They are larger than bite sized chocolate candy.
Then you can experiment in your kitchen, Because Choc Zero also makes a line of Monk Fruit sweetened syrups. Make your own sugar-free confections with these syrups.
These are currently only available online.
