Our first Facebook Competition ends soon !
Our first Facebook competition is drawing to an end, but don’t worry – you still have until tomorrow (Tuesday) 9pm AEDT to enter!
Head over to The Sugar Breakup Facebook page, give us a ‘like’ and enter the competition for your chance to win a great prize pack of assorted sugar-free goodies!
Whether you’re looking to start a sugar-free lifestyle or just want to try some new things, David Gillespie’s ‘The Sweet Poison Quit Plan Cookbook’ is so essential that we’re including a signed copy in the prize pack! We’ve used this cookbook to enjoy fructose free chocolate (among other things). ‘The Sweet Poison Quit Plan Cookbook’ will show you how giving up sugar doesn’t mean giving up your lifestyle.
We recently had a love affair with peanut butter. Our favourite peanut butter – Ridiculously Delicious Peanut Butter – is yet another part of the prize pack. We discovered that peanut butter has an interesting history and we tried our hand at an old favourite: peanut butter cookies!
Melinda Trembath shared her gluten-free story with us, which prompted us to consider if the gluten-free life is right for everyone. We’re giving away some of Melinda’s Gluten Free Goodies in the prize pack. This means the lucky winner will have the chance to whip up a batch of Melinda’s Gluten Free and Fructose Free Cupcakes.
The prizes don’t stop there! Taste Nirvana has joined the fun, offering up some of their delicious (and responsibly produced) coconut water that’s fructose free, fat, gluten and cholesterol free as well.
You’ll also nab some goodies from Kitz Living Foods, producers of activated nuts, crackers and snack bars that are gluten and dairy free.
Also some tasty classic and gluten free muesli from the muesli (we used their muesli for our delicious muesli cookies).
Rounding out our great prize pack is The Sugar Breakup Dextrose and Golden Rice Malt Syrup that you already know and love.
So don’t delay! Competition entries close tomorrow! (Tuesday 5 November, at 9pm AEDT).
We’re loco for coconuts!
At The Sugar Breakup we love to use many elements of the coconut in our cooking. From coconut flour to coconut oil, and water, it is incredibly diverse. But there’s more to this humble fruit of the coconut palm than just eating.
Coconuts are an important crop in many parts of the world, providing many goods, in addition to symbolical significance in the countries where they are traditionally grown.
You know by now that we enjoy coconut water, but that is hardly the only thing coconuts are good for. In fact, coconuts are incredibly versatile and – as a crop – very sustainable.
There is a use for virtually every part of a coconut and the tree in which it grows, including:
- Coconut wine and vinegar (produced from coconut water)
- Coconut oil – useful in many ways!
- Health and beauty products
- Bowls and utensils fashioned from coconut shells
- Rugs, rope and mattress stuffing (made from coconut husks)
- Brooms (made from coconut leaves)
- Furniture or entire houses built with coconut tree trunks!
You’ve got to love a plant that can essentially meet all of your basic needs by providing food, shelter and even fabric for clothing! While we probably won’t be building a coconut house anytime soon (or at least not until we retire to Hawaii), we have been making good use of coconut water in our favourite smoothies, as well as enjoying the subtle tastes of coconut and coconut oil in our chocolate crackle spiders.
You can join us in our coconut water love affair by entering our Facebook competition for a chance to win some Taste Nirvana Real Coconut Water and other delicious goodies! Entries close on Tuesday, so don’t delay!
Ridiculously Delicious Peanut Butter
When we were kids we went to after school care. We would run to the building and line up to receive an afternoon snack.
This snack was always one piece of white bread; never two, even when we begged because we were always starving, (sound familiar to parents out there?) with either jam, vegemite or peanut butter, our choice.
Yes, in the old days schools would feed you peanut butter!
As we grew older this tradition stayed and we would think nothing of having one or two pieces of bread slathered in a delicious sugary spread. The bread slices got bigger and the peanut butter and jams even sweeter.
Breaking this food tradition was one of the hardest things when we went sugar free.
So imagine our delight when we found a peanut butter made here in Australia that is sugar free and didn’t have any nasty hydrogenated oils added.
We actually found it at the local butcher and when asked was it any good, the butcher told us that for a snack, he would sneak out the back and eat it by the spoonful.
It’s something we had to have in our first Facebook competition and it’s called Ridiculously Delicious Peanut Butter.
Here’s what the Ridiculously Delicious guys have to say about it:
A RECIPE SO OLD, IT’S NEW!
Australian golden roasted peanuts, ground to creamy smooth perfection and lightly salted. That’s it!
No sugars. No hydrogenated oils. No preservatives.
Just the non-stop thrill of peanut butter splendour.
Their peanut butter comes in Super Smooth and Chunky Crunch, and we fully agree it is absolutely delicious!
So enter our Facebook competition because this is just one of the amazing prizes in our Ultimate Sugar Free prize pack.
(please note: our Facebook competition finishes on Tuesday, November 5th)
