Intro from The Diabetic Pastry Chef

I have something I’d like to share with you! Through trial and error, I have developed a formula I call Neo-Carb Baking, that produces tasty, healthy, homemade bakery products for diabetics. My techniques and formulas lessen (but not always eliminate!) sugar, “bad” carbs and saturated fats, while maintaining the satisfying tastes and flavors of your original recipes.

I posted my techniques, formulas and recipes on a diabetic Internet forum, where they became so well read and popular, I decided to devote an entire blog to my experiments and results. This is all in an effort to help other fellow diabetics learn to bake, enjoy and not fear eating delectable homemade bakery items. I promise to teach you how to bake products that not only you will enjoy, but your whole family will, as well.

The original thread that started it all is found here:

    What a neat site!

    I’ve only been here for a few minutes and learned something new. I’ve used soy and almond flour before; and you are right, sometimes you just don’t get the same results as wheat. I had never thought of mixing them, though. That is so great!

    I was wondering… Do you know how much real sugar would be needed to get good carbonation from yeast to make homemade root beer? My kids are really into science, and I love doing hands-on projects with them. I thought soda would be so neat, as they have seen what yeast can do in bread, and I’d like to give them a different view. (I also just love the taste of homemade root beer :D )

    Thanks for making such a neat site! I’m definitely going to bookmark it and check back regularly.

    Thanks for your positive comments, Jamie! I was able to locate a website for you that shows how to make root beer. Here is the link:

    I also have included another link explaining why sugar substitutes will not work effectively in homemade root beer. Here is the link:
