Towering Through Caramel!

Neeru’s husband Ravi was fond of sweets and she always felt elated when he used to relish all the dishes she would prepare for him. One bad day, all hell broke loose when Ravi was diagnosed with the deadly lifestyle disease that is diabetes. He, although being a man cried as he couldn't let go of his sweet tooth. But he had to.

For a few days, Neeru also couldn’t think of any alternative. She tried abandoning sugar once and for all in desserts prepared at home but although ingredients such as rice, milk etc. have an intrinsic sweetness, still that appetizing relish couldn’t be recreated by her. But, she didn’t lose hope, in attempts to keep a watchful eye on her husband's health. One fine day she came to know of Sugar Free Natura and thought of giving it a try. She thought of making Ravi’s favorite Caramel Custard with a twist. She took it upon her as a #DessertChallenge.

Custard Cake Tower was thus ready to savor!

When Ravi saw it at first, he didn’t even want to taste it.


Now, he was of the belief that unsweetened custard would be insipid on his palate. Neeru asked him to give it a try.

The moment he took one spoon of custard, a big smile lit up his face but at the same time left him puzzled and looked towards Neeru as to how she was giving Ravi sweet custard!



Neeru let him in on the sweet surprise – Sugar Free Natura. 

Lo! Ravi's flavorless and vapid days are now gone with the wind as he can freely enjoy all his favorite desserts without bothering about his diabetes.  All thanks to Sugar Free Natura.
