Healthy Bakery 4 Seeds Drops Diabetic-Friendly Kunafas
And they're just as good as the real thing… When I, your resident SceneEats writer, was first diagnosed with Diabetes, I was unfazed. You see, I could not care less about the - literally - sweeter things in life; my sweet tooth had never ached; never tingled, nor ever whispered seductions in my ear. Yet,human nature is one that is easily manipulated by the mind; so you bet your sweet behind that the second I got that diagnosis, I made sure to get revenge, and force that sweet tooth to tingle. Yet, where could I find desserts that wouldn't send me to the ICU on a Friday night when I should be enjoying a new episode of Severance instead? My search took me far and wide, and a few mishaps and not-so-delicious experiences later, I landed on 4 Seeds. For years now, 4 Seeds has been the purveyor of all things sweet yet sugar-free for individuals who shared my conundrum - and similar conundrums at that. Serving up exclusively sugar-free and keto friendly desserts - free from dairy, gluten, and flour, 4 Seeds provides what not many could; a feeling of inclusion in that dessert portion of the family 'ozouma'. This Ramadan, 4 Seeds is introducing a series of healthy, sugar, dairy, gluten, and flour free Kunafas for those amongst us who simply can't risk inhaling 300grams of sugar in one sitting. Four Seasons Kunafa A family of four with four contrarian tastes? 4 Seeds' Four Seasons Kunafa is demurely split into four separate sections; one strawberry, one Nutella, one pistachio, and naturally as has become custom, one Mango. Two Seasons Kunafa Overwhelmed by choices? Perhaps a Two Seasons won't be 'two' much. 4 Seeds' Two Seasons is split into half Lotus kunafa, and half pistachio. Pistachio Kunafa A pistachio fiend through and through? You can grab the pistachio kunafa and simply gorge to your heart's - and pancreas' - desire. Blueberry Kunafa Not afraid of all things novel? You might want to try the blueberry kunafa - though we'll sit this one out, in favour of the one up next… Nutella Kunafa Anyone forbidden from exorbitant amounts of sugar knows this: breaking up with Nutella hurts more than leaving your 7-year situationship. So what better way to heal the wounds of your heart than a Nutella kunafa you know won't break you down?
