Fruit Purees

“I use them to replace some of the butter and oil in cakes and cookies, plus they add moistness and intense flavor.” perfectpuree.com.

Agave Nectar

“I use Partida organic agave to naturally sweeten iced tea, low-fat desserts—and margaritas.” partidatequilastore.com.

Egg Whites

“Folding a bit of beaten egg white into cake batter creates an airy texture without extra fat and sugar.”

Flavored Oil

“I drizzle Pasolivo Meyer-lemon olive oil over cakes and blend it into ice cream. It’s a healthy way to add richness and depth of flavor.” pasolivo.com.
