“Sweetness & Light is the result of my journey to discover the craft of baking guilt-free delicious treats. I wanted to create a collection of recipes that ensure you can enjoy sweet things without harming your body. You’ll find recipes here to satisfy even the sweetest tooth. Many are gluten-, dairy- and refined sugar-free, some are vegan and others raw. Cook with love and make your body feel good.”

Sweetness & Light is a new collection by model Daisy Lowe of recipes for 60 healthy sweet treats. By making simple changes to ingredients, such as using maple syrup rather than refined sugar, or discovering new ingredients such as raw chocolate, these recipes are transformed into something devilishly delicious but angelically healthy.

Split over seven chapters including Make-you-feel-great cakes, Skinny puddings and Scream for ice cream, and featuring such treats as Apricot and ginger cake, Frangipane tart with pears and Lemon and lime scented granita, there is a recipe suitable for any craving. Daisy is adamant that we shouldn’t deprive ourselves of the foods we desire, and these healthy sweets are perfect for any time of the day.

“I never thought it would be possible for me to kick the sugar habit until I moved to New York. There, I tasted natural products that give you a sweet hit without harming your body. Recently I also found out that I am intolerant to wheat and dairy. A few of the healthy substitutions I’ve made for wheat, dairy and sugar in these recipes will be new to you, but you will easily be able to find them in health food shops and online. My body feels so much healthier and it works better. I have more energy, I sleep better, I get sick less often. I am feeding myself, not starving or depriving myself of the sweet things I love. I wanted to share these recipes so you can do the same, and love yourself from the inside out.”
