I want to try every recipe! *by on Reviewed in the United States March 9, 2024* First day I immediately looked to see what I could bake with ingredients on hand and decided on the Pain D'Espices (Spice Bread). It was sweetened with honey and used whole wheat flour, yum!Second I baked the Apple-Walnut-Maple Cake. The only difficulty I had was trying to figure out how to translate the called for 3 medium apples to my 3 large. I settled on 2 1/2 apples but it seemed like a lot of apples for the batter. Baked it anyway and it looks and tastes simply amazing, so moist and maple-y flavored, mmmmm mmmmm mmmmm.Please don't let other less favorable reviews stop you from buying this book. It's beautifully written and photographed and it's exactly what it says, baking with less sugar. The recipes also make ample use of more healthy substitutes like honey, maple syrup, fruit, fruit juices, spices, etc. You'll love this book!! ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Kindle and Physical Book *by on Reviewed in the United States October 17, 2021* I love this book. Let me say that again — I love this book.I have both the kindle and the physical book.The hard back book has wonderful features. I love the texture of the cover and the way the pages are organized.I love the links inside the kindle book allowing me to jump from various recipes to other items needed (like a pie crust).RECIPES — GLUTEN FREE NO SUGAR LIFE:When we purchased this book we were facing a major health crisis. We were gluten free and completely off sugar (honey was only consumed for allergies). We were headed into another holiday season with NO BAKED GOODS. (As much as this isn’t the end of the earth, every holiday was missing something.)This book provides amazing recipes that can easily go gluten free or are already gluten free. Combine this with the alternate sweeteners (honey, dates, maple syrup, etc) and I truly felt like I found paradise.RECIPES — Regular life:Thankfully we’re back to enjoying small quantities of gluten and sugar. And, even though I could use other recipes I’ve loved my entire life … I continuously pick this book up. It’s by far my favorite baking book!Top 3 Recipes:#1: Maple-Pumpkin Pie (and the crust)Are there words for this pie? No. It’s rich, smooth, and tasty. I’ve made it every year for the last FIVE YEARS. It’s now expected and required at our Thanksgiving table.#2: Warm Apple Raisin CrispThis is everything you want to enjoy in the fall. The texture and flavor are a perfect balance of fresh and sweet.#3: Yellow Birthday CakeThis cake was the first thing I made from the book — and I made it gluten free in my (at that time) new lodge fluted cake pan. I preheated the cast iron, ran my stick of butter around it melting the butter and coating the sides, then added the batter. The results were out of this world! Although I now make it with four, I still use my cast iron — it turns out perfectly, every single time (even when I’ve messed up the directions). ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ I'm still working my way through the book but I think it's a good introduction to thinking about baked treats differently *by on Reviewed in the United States December 23, 2015* I appreciate what Joanne Chang is doing with this book. She states that she is baking with LESS sugar, not "no sugar", not for diabetics, she does not claim that it's "healthy". She also explains the process of developing these recipes and how decreasing sugar doesn't just affect the taste - it affects texture and shelf life too. She's completely up front of all of these things, so I think it's unfair that people are giving negative criticisms for what the author has already told you. Even though I am used to eating things with less sugar, the first two recipes I tried came out bland and downright salty - the bacon scones and pecan coffee cake. The banana bread is stellar though. I'm still working my way through the book but I think it's a good introduction to thinking about baked treats differently. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.sc/products/104346916-baking-with-less-sugar-recipes-for-desserts-using-natural-sweeteners](https://www.desertcart.sc/products/104346916-baking-with-less-sugar-recipes-for-desserts-using-natural-sweeteners) --- *Product available on Desertcart Seychelles* *Store origin: SC* *Last updated: 2026-08-25*
