Two Candy Recipes Suitable For Diabetics

Are you diabetic but crave candy? One the the biggest adjustments for me when I was diagnosed as a type 2 diabetic was, in a word--Candy! As all those who are familiar with my website and writings know, sweets are my weakness. I could skip the meal just to get to the dessert table and it would not bother me one bit. I soon found that "sugar-free" candy cost quite a bit more than regular candy and sometimes it wasn't very good. That's not to say all "sugar-free" candy isn't good, some of it is downright delicious--and expensive. So I started working with some of my favorite candy recipes and have come up with some good alternatives. Below are a couple of my favorites to share with you.

STRAWBERRY FUDGE BALLS

1 pkg (8 oz) light cream cheese, softened

6 oz sugar-free chocolate pieces, melted

3/4 cup sugar-free cookies ie vanilla wafers or shortbread, crushed into crumbs

1/4 cup sugar-free strawberry preserves, seedless or strained

finely chopped plain almonds and/or cocoa powder for rolling

Combine the melted chocolate with the softened cream cheese and mix until blended. Stir in cookie crumbs and preserves. Chill overnight. Remove from refrigerator and shape into 1-inch sized balls. Roll balls in the crushed almonds and/or cocoa.

TEXAS COW PATTY CANDY

1 stick butter

2 cups Equal Sugar-Lite

1/4 cup cocoa

1/2 cup low-fat milk

1/3 cup creamy peanut butter

3 cups quick-cooking oats

1 tsp vanilla extract

In a 2-qt saucepan, combine butter, Equal, cocoa and milk. Cook over medium heat, stirring often, until mixture begins to boil. Boil for a full two minutes, stirring often. Remove mixture from the heat and add vanilla and peanut butter. Stir until peanut butter is melting. Add the oats and stir until all the oats are covered. Drop by a teaspoon onto waxed paper or lightly buttered cookie sheets. Allow to cool fully so candy will set.

Some Tips For Rolling Out Fondant

When you start decorating cakes you will find rolling out fondant is a trick. Before you can work with the fondant you want to get it soft enough to allow it to spread.

Rolling out fondant is easiest when you knead it just like if it was bread. You want to get it to a soft smooth state. From there you will use a nice heavy rolling pin. A marble pin will work fine.

If this is new to you don't start large. Have a smaller cake to cover. If you have worked with pie crust this is similar to pie dough. If you are coloring your fondant a different color you will add the coloring once you have a nice soft ball. just keep working in the color until it is where you want it. This can wear you out. But once you practice it gets easier.

Rolling out fondant can get easier with practice. If you are rolling it and don't like the color yet just put it back to the ball stage and work the color in. Roll from the center out to keep a level layer.

Once you have got a piece large enough to cover your cake, stop. Put the piece over your cake and trim it. Smooth it over the cake with you hands. You might want to wet your hands a little bit to smooth your fondant easier.

You will be amazed at how much fun you can have as you practice cake decorating. Rolling out fondant correctly can be fun. There are lots of great ideas you can learn if you are really interested in cake decorating.

Alex Kornfeind - giapponesi disertano l'Italia

SERVIZI SCADENTI, GIAPPONESI DISERTANO L'ITALIA TOKYO - Furti, tassisti abusivi, truffe, menù poco chiari, scarsa qualità al ristorante, servizi scadenti e strade sporche. Per un turista giapponese la Dolce Vita della Capitale è sempre più salata. E a confermare il quadro è anche l'Asahi Shimbun, il secondo quotidiano del Sol Levante, che in una corrispondenza da Roma ha tracciato un quadro poco rassicurante sul Belpaese, sempre meno frequentato dai vacanzieri giapponesi. Fin da quando atterra all'aeroporto di Fiumicino, Hiroshi, comune visitatore nipponico, incappa già nella prima truffa. Abbordato da un tassista abusivo con l'auto bianca per adescare i turisti più ingenui, paga oltre cento euro per essere portato fino al centro di Roma mentre con un regolare taxi ne pagherebbe 40. Ma in alcuni casi - come segnalato dai turisti ad un'agenzia che si occupa di giapponesi - "le ricevute sono confuse e con una calligrafia incomprensibile". Arrivato al Colosseo, una delle mete preferite da giapponesi, Hiroshi subisce l'assedio dei centurioni, che chiedono insistentemente un'offerta per una foto da scattare davanti al monumento. Stessa cosa succede alla Fontana di Trevi per gli ambulanti di souvenir, i cosiddetti madonnari, che cercano di vendere oggetti-ricordo il cui prezzo è sempre un tabù per chi, come i viaggiatori nipponici, non ha molta dimestichezza con l'euro. Per Hiroshi è meglio comprare un souvenir in un negozio o prendere un caffé, un gelato o l'acqua in un bar ...
