So what do you do when you are trying to lose some weight but you have a giant sweet tooth? If you're like me, you try and look for options that will allow you to stick to your diet while still indulging in your favorite treats. I had the opportunity to try Werther's Orginal Sugar Free Candy and it is just the thing for when you need something sweet -STAT!
I am the kind of parent who eats the majority of her kids Halloween candy - hey they are three and four and don't need that much candy. I can't pass up a sweet treat or bowlful of candy, hence the aforementioned diet. I am sharing this with you so that you know that I know my candy. I am a candy connoisseur. I am talking full of sugar and calories candy. Sugar free candy has never really been on my radar since I didn't think it could taste as good as the full of sugar options.
But I am not above admitting when I am wrong, and in this case, I was wrong. Werther's Original Sugar Free Candy tastes just like regular Werther's and has no unpleasant aftertaste. Your sweet tooth will never know the difference. I got to sample four great sugar free varieties: Classic (the Werther's taste you've come to know and love), Caramel Coffee, Caramel Apple and Caramel Cinnamon.
Each candy contains just 8 calories and 3 grams of carbs. Since they are individually wrapped, I can keep a few in my purse for those moments when a craving hits (like at the grocery store checkout line when I am surround by candy). I can indulge in the rich taste of caramel and feel no guilt about it.
I am not a big coffee drinker, but the Caramel Coffee really has a rich coffee flavor. It's like a having a cup of caramel coffee in a hard candy. My favorite flavor was the Caramel Apple as it reminded me of those yummy apples you get at a fair.
While these candies are obviously great for dieters or those looking to watch their sugar intake, they would be especially beneficial to diabetics who have had to make lifestyle changes to stay healthy. If you think these candies can be helpful to you or someone your love, head to the Werther's Original Sugar Free Facebook page where you can play a fun game and even get some coupons so you can try out the candies for yourself.
