caramels

You are probably saying to yourself, “Candy? On a low carb site?” and my answer is yes, if it is done right. We all deserve a sinful treat once and a while and if it is low carb, all the more reason. I swapped out brown sugar with Splenda. The only ingredient used that is high in sugar is natural raw honey. People have been using honey for thousands of years as a home remedy for things like helping with digestion and calming a bad cough.

Honey has had a long history in human consumption, and is used in various foods and beverages as a sweetener and flavoring. It also has a role in religion and symbolism. Flavors of honey vary based on the nectar source, and various types and grades of honey are available. It has also been used in various medicinal traditions to treat ailments.

Taken in moderation this quick little hit of sweetness is a real treat.
