Diabetes runs very strong on my mother’s side of the family. All my aunts and uncles had or have it, my grandparents had it and now some cousins are getting it. My brother was borderline and my mother has Type 2. While pregnant with my first child I was borderline gestational diabetic and I get checked yearly to stay on top of it. My mom always made it a big deal even when I was younger to get checked, so I do.

While I may not always watch my sugar intake, I do exercise and try to eat healthy and I do check my sugar levels yearly. I do not want to carry on the legacy of diabetes.

My mom is a diabetic and it amazes me how much sugar she eats. She does not follow a strict diabetic diet. Sorry mom. But her sugar is under control so that’s good. I would just love to see her do it with out so much medications. She is a sweets eater, as we all are, right? It’s hard to not eat sweet stuff!

Well, Werther’s Candies has several fun flavors that are sugar free! They still use real butter and fresh cream for that rich, smooth creaming taste that is so delicious! However the sugar free version uses the sugar alternative Isomalt and the sweetener Acesulfame-K. Each candy has 3 grams of carbs and only 8 calories.

We received a box full of Werther’s Candies and all the new flavors.

You know they are good when my 12 year old son keeps stealing them! The candies are a tad smaller than the original. but perfect just the same. It tastes exactly how I remember them. Sweet and creamy.

The sugar free version comes in four delicious flavors: Classic Caramel, Caramel Apple, Caramel Coffee and Caramel Cinnamon.
I enjoyed the Classic Caramel and the Caramel Apple. It’s like eating a caramel apple, yumm!
