When you use raw cacao and the sweetener Monk fruit you reduce the sugar load.

The fruit was first cultivated by Buddhist monks 800 years ago, hence the unusual name of the fruit.

It has a sweetening power 200 to 300 times higher than that of sugar.

Sweetener made from monk’s fruit does not affect blood sugar and contains zero calories

It is available as a liquid, granules and powder.
It is safe for children, pregnant and breastfeeding women.

So here’s a great alternative to replace some or all of the required sugar in your recipes.
