Event Overview
Ah, Sugar, what a seductive mistress. We know she's not good for us, but somehow she still manages to rope us in after almost every meal. Thankfully, like any unhealthy relationship, there's something better out there for you. It's time to learn all the ways sugar's been hurting you and realize that your life can still remain sweet without her.
In a small group lecture & discussion setting, learn about the negative effects sugar has on your body, pinpoint the causes of your cravings, and discover how to satisfy your sweet tooth with healthy sugar alternatives.
Samples of naturally sweetened desserts as well as baking conversion charts will be made available so you'll walk away with the knowledge, tools, and sweet motivation to kick sugar to the curb.

Kristian K.Reviewed on 09/11/13The examples of alternative sweeteners were helpful. Especially having them there to look at so I know what to look for at the store. I was a bit late due to traffic, so maybe this was covered before I arrived, but I didn't get a sense of urgency as to why sugar is so horrible or toxic. I heard a little of why the artificial sweeteners were bad, but nothing that inspired me to give up sugar completely.
From Teacher:
Kristian, the health dangers of sugar were certainly covered in the half hour before you arrived, I'm sorry that you missed it. If you have any lingering questions about the subject, feel free to message me anytime.

Caren E.Reviewed on 06/27/13The class offered a lot of great ideas on how to satisfy your sugar cravings by using different sweeteners like stevia and coconut sugar. The sample desserts were delicious. I'm excited to start trying out some of the Recipies on my own.
