We are tickled blue and white - figuratively speaking, of course - that SUGARLESSe™ is showcased on KosherToday.com's New Products page! 
Our sincere thanks go to Eda Kram, the editor of New Products Showcase. Kosher Today is the premiere online publication of the kosher trade in the USA. It is headed by Menachem Lubinsky, whose company is also the organizer of Kosherfest, the world's largest annual kosher trade show. We look forward to exhibiting there next year!

We received an email earlier this week with the following review and endorsement — after a thorough evaluation in a good number of recipes — from Lauren Lindsay of the Gluten-Free Advocacy Group: “Sugarlesse has been an excellent contribution to a number of recipes and no longer call for any granulated sugar. Many recipes are not yet posted, and will be decided upon as collections for the website or e-cookbook in the future. But for now, Sugarlesse has gained a considerable amount of positive feedback and should be in my opinion, stocked in everyone's pantries.” And to make sure they do, SUGALESSe™ is now listed in the Sweeteners section of Groceries, on their website. Sweet! 
Can’t wait to see the recipe collection and the e-cookbook? You are not alone. Let us know in your comment -- include your email address -- and we’ll shoot them to you just as soon as we get them. Lori Weintrob, chair and professor in the history department of Wagner College on Staten Island, NY had a problem. She wanted custom chocolate made for Joelle's Bat Mitzvah. Not just any custom chocolate, though. They had to be diabetic, taste good, and cause no gastric discomfort. Not possible with maltitol, sorbitol, or any other sugar substitute chocolate makers still use.... That is, she had a problem... till she found us. We made 30 of our ChocoMint Naturals for her, with the label featuring Vincent Van Gogh's Starry Night painting. Here they are:  We are very happy to contribute to Joelle's coming of age this way. We wish her the best for her Bar Mitzvah and afterwards. Mazel Tov! Welcome to the new Newark, where healthy living and healthy foods - they are synonymous, obviously - are taking root! And the best example of that is Question Mart, Newark’s cutest health food store, located on Broad Street - 392 Broad St. to be precise. We took these pictures today. They certainly look the part, don’t they? 
Run by the charming Kay Lewis, Question Mart is clearly an extension of her owner: inviting, clean, full of healthy spirit and products. These now include SUGARLESSe™, and if all goes well SUGARLESSe™ Chocolate Naturals in the future. 
They also have a little exhibit of paintings from local artists that you should definitely check out when visiting the store. Not only do you get nourishments for your body but your soul too. Way to go, Kay - the healthy way!
Here is more about them: http://www.yelp.com/biz/question-mart-newark We were very lucky to be introduced to Lauren Lindsey of the Gluten-Free Advocacy Group recently by Rory Grabowsky of Rory and Company. They are consultants and experts with first hand experience in the field. Consider them as your helpful neighbor, offering an informed and guiding hand towards developing and maintaining a gluten free lifestyle. The Group also implements standards for gluten-free dining within the home, restaurants, and institutions. The additional services they offer include an overview of Celiac Disease, protocol for maintaining safe environments, and menu alternatives. They collaborate with reliable gluten-free, celiac disease, nutrition, and fitness outlets like us — THANK YOU Lauren and the whole group, indeed— to promote products, recipes, and wellness regimens to heal and sustain the body and mind.  Visit our redesigned online store and partake of our brand new (literally!) gourmet chocolate truffles: The 3-Pack Gold Box  And the 9-Pack Gold Box  We make them here in the USA, with 60% cocoa, our natural sweetener blend Sugarlesse™, agave syrup, and other natural ingredients. They are low glycemic, reduced calorie, Kosher, Non-GMO, and gluten free. You'll love them! P.S. Don’t forget — we can personalize them for your upcoming events, like birthday parties, weddings, showers, Bar / Bat Mitzvahs; and customize them for fundraising and your business events! What a rhetorical question! Or is it? Now that, presumably, I have your attention, let me tell you how excited we are to be able to work with Renee and magic sauce MEDIA! If you haven’t heard about her and her company, it’s only because her roots and clients are in high-tech and Silicon Valley, not in the food business - till now. Ray Kurzweil is my favorite author / inventor/ entrepreneur (my family and friends are sick and tired of hearing from me that the the singularity is already here - well, at least in a few instances). More importantly, his high praise of Renee and her team is telling! “Blodgett knows her way around the influential blogosphere and social network scene. Incredibly apt at connecting with old and new influencer leaders and effective in creating and delivering a resonant message, their programs cut through the noise to build the level of buzz and mindshare necessary for ideas — and organizations — to achieve rapid success.” Enough said…. While we do not have Renee’s magic sauce recipe, we can certainly personalize and customize ours for her and magic sauce MEDIA. So we have and the pictures below show the results.  In case you wonder where Renee’s picture on the complimentary truffles below comes from, it is from a video on her YouTube Channel.  Do you happen to be too busy to take off for a vacation or need inspiration? I am. Blogging the world with her and her team is the next best thing, through her globe-trotting blog, www.weblogtheworld.com. Her Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest pages are entertaining and inspiring too!
Cinnamon, apples, and caramelizing sugar—the aromas swirled through our house, making it a cozy refuge from the world. My new recipe smelled very good, that much I knew. But did taste as amazing as it smelled?  Yes! It did, although I did not use sugar. Instead I opted for Sugarlesse™. I was so happy to see that it browned just as sugar would, with 25% less calories to boot. I had been trying to bake with other sugar substitutes. For example, Stevia. I love stevia for sweetening puddings, sour fruit concoctions, yogurt, etc, but I only need a very small amount. This poses a problem when you want the structure that sugar provides, its satisfying flavor, and its ability to caramelize. I bit into the fragrant, golden morsel on my fork. Depth of flavor and comfort greeted my tongue. The tender, unsweetened apples sang in chorus with the buttery pastry. The textures were united in one of those rare and fortunate marriages that can stand the test of time. Another thing I loved about my Apple Cake is that it did not give me gas afterwards. Unfortunately, sugar substitutes like Maltitol creates a warlike scenario in my intestines of explosive proportions. Other sugar substitutes that contain Sorbitol, Xylitol, or other sugar alcohols have been shown to have unwelcome side-effects too. I didn’t feel any discomfort from Sugarlesse™. This recipe is nutritious, as it contains 5 eggs. Therefore there is enough protein in it to be a meal in itself, with your beverage of choice. I leave the skins on the apples for added texture. They are very tender because you start the recipe by sautéing the apples. Ingredients Apple mixture 6-7 apples 3 tablespoons butter ¼ lemon 1 tablespoon cinnamon 1 tablespoon mace or allspice 1 tablespoon vanilla Batter 1−3/4 cups Sugarlesse™ 5 extra large eggs 2 cups sifted unbleached flour. 1 stick of salted butter, soft or semi-liquid Cake pan Cooking spray Fine breadcrumbs Instructions Preheat oven to 350⁰F. Coat a 9” x 11” cake pan with cooking spray then lightly dust greased pan with fine breadcrumbs. Apples Core 6-7 apples. Cut them into even chunks. Sprinkle with lemon juice, cinnamon, allspice or mace and toss. Melt butter in frying pan and sauté apples until al dente - they will cook more in the oven later, so you don’t want them to turn to mush. Batter Blend soft or semi-liquid butter and Sugarlesse™ together until creamed. Add eggs, one at a time, while beating. Add vanilla. Add flour ½ cup at a time and continue to beat at high speed until batter becomes smooth. Fold sautéed apples into the batter and pour all into cake pan. Lightly cover pan with foil and bake for ½ hour at 350⁰F. Take the foil off and continue to bake for another 45 minutes uncovered. Preparation time: 25 minutes. Baking time: 1 and ¼ hours. Yield: 10 servings Will we add this recipe to the * Made with Sugarlesse™ * Recipe Collection? What a question? It will go right into the next edition!  We'll celebrate their marriage vows with these sweet and healthy wedding favors on their big day, the 16th of June. Congratulations! In case you are not their fan yet, you should be. Why? Because William, Sarah, and their team, the Earth Harp Collective, are the most talented musicians, entertainers, and engineers you'll ever encounter. Watch the video and you'll see! We'll be glad to make personalized truffles for your big event or any other occasion too. You can contact us here. We are happy to report that Ms. Becky Winters is the winner.
