Dipping strawberries in chocolate is so last season — serving the dipped strawberries as pops is so this season! And now is the season for strawberries, which makes this recipe hot, like the weather outside.
These neat treats are great for any summer party. Decorated with heart-shaped sugar-free marzipan, they are especially great for weddings. You can also add your preferred seasonings or sweeteners to the chocolate dip: for example rum, vanilla stevia — or both!

This sugar-free rhubarb chutney is rhubarb lover’s tangiest dream! Also suitable for garlic lovers. And lovers in general. (If you don’t care about some garlicky fumes swirling around…)
For not the biggest friends of tongue-tickling tangy flavors, I give some suggestions for mellower variations in the end of the post. Naturally, I give a few alternatives for garlic, too, in case garlic gobbling is not your cup of tea.
You can color the chutney with bright hues — like I have done in the photo above. I give some ideas for very natural colors in the end of the post. Actually, throughout the post you can see the photos of these colorful creations.

“Now, this tastes exciting!”, my husband exclaimed with enthusiasm. I had made several iced tea experiments and this one seemed to please our palates most.
If you like cherry and vanilla (and who doesn’t!) this iced tea is sure to kill your thirst in a most refreshing and exciting way. Sweet cherry is simply part of summer with its fruitiness, vanilla stevia gives an elegant hint of this fantastic flavor while lime juice plays an important role in freshening the flavors with a tangy yet smooth kick of citrus.

This accompaniment is just made for those hot and lazy summer days when you don’t feel like spending too much time in the kitchen and when you don’t want to have anything too hearty and heavy.
This crunchy cucumber side dish is a fresh combination of sweet and savory, with a notable touch of nourishing raw apple cider vinegar. Cucumber’s old companion, dill, completes the relationship between this two-man team. H’m, veggie team.
You can prepare this salad beforehand, but as it’s fresh pickles, you don’t need to wait for days or weeks before enjoying — this tangy tidbit is ready within two hours.

I’ve been blogging actively for a year now. Every single week I have managed to publish a recipe which I have developed more or less from scratch. I have also published a recipe per week in my Finnish blog.
Well, this blog has been a real challenge — sugar-free, gluten-free low-carb recipes with 5 or less natural ingredients, using foreign language and foreign measures — but totally fun! Over 100 000 unique visitors, hundreds of lovely comments. Thank you all! Your great feedback really keeps me going.

This sugar-free frosting is bursting with flavor of real strawberries. Unlike creamy and buttery frostings, this dreamy meringue-like frosting is airy and fluffy, not heavy. Real strawberries guarantee the authentic strawberry taste without anything artificial. Using freeze-dried strawberries makes also sure that the frosting doesn’t turn out watery, like it would with fresh strawberries.
This frosting is perfect for cakes and cupcakes. You can also make gelatin dessert — just spoon the mixture into dessert bowls and let set in the fridge for an hour or two. A perfect way to finish any tasty summer meal!

Hope you can pardon me for publishing another appetizer in a row. Actually, nothing prevents from serving this also as side dish. I’m just so thrilled about the flavors of the spring that I simply have to publish another recipe using spring vegetables.
This appetizer is especially for those who don’t have a charcoal grill, or who want to prepare a delicious and easy dish quickly and without too much pain. Combining liquid smoke with asparagus is a sure-fire hit. Hint of balsamic vinegar gives a slightly tangy touch, olive oil and salt are natural companions of the green goddess of spring.

This fresh appetizer is great not only for low-carbers but for anybody — who can eat shellfish. This dish is healthy with all the benefits of avocado, shrimp and red grapefruit. Chives and black pepper give a gentle kick and complete the bunch of flavors to the full blossom. That’s it, I already told you the 5 ingredients for this revitalizing appetizer, you don’t need anything else!

These savory hassle-free, gluten-free low-carb muffins are soft, flavorful and they will be gone very soon once you bake them. You’ll see.

It’s time for some fresh spring flavors. Here in Finland we still enjoy (not!) occasional heavy snowing, but nothing prevents from dreaming of sunny and warm spring days. And dreaming is much easier while spreading some of this tangy, sweet and sour spread on freshly-baked muffins. So great for breakfast… wakes you up! Or with afternoon coffee when in need for some energy.
