According to NuNaturals, Presweet Tagatose is gluten free and is safe for Type l and Type ll Diabetics because it's serving will not raise blood sugar levels. It is also 92% as sweet as sugar therefore a great substitute for refined sugar and a super benefit to those trying to minimize sugar on a weight loss program.

Thank you again NuNaturals for sending me their products to try. I've used their Presweet Tagatose and Vanilla Stevia to make a No-Bake Raspberry Cheesecake for my diabetic friend. My friend was very surprised that this dessert looked and tasted no different from an ordinary cheesecake.

No-Bake Raspberry Cheesecake

Ingredients:

    Line and grease a 8 inch springform cake pan

    100g Marie biscuits, crushed

    80g Melted butter

• Combine crushed biscuits crumbs and melted butter together in a mixing bowl. Press the biscuit crumbs onto the base of the prepared pan and chill in the refrigerator for later use.

    Raspberry Sauce

    200g Frozen raspberry

    2 tbsp Water

    55g NuNaturals Presweet Tagatose 

    Cheese Filling

    250g Cream Cheese

    300g Tofu (pressed or momen tofu)

    200ml Natural yoghurt/sour cream

    2-3 drops NuNaturals Vanilla Stevia

    1 tbsp Lemon juice and lemon zest from 1 lemon

    115g NuNaturals Presweet Tagatose 

    2 tbsp Fresh milk

    15g Gelatin powder soak with 50g water

    4 1/2 tbsp Raspberry sauce

     

     Method:

• Cook the Raspberry sauce first - Place frozen raspberry, water in a pot and sprinkle NuNatural Presweet Tagatose over it and bring to boil at medium heat. Use a fork to mash the raspberries when softened and stirring occasionally until sauce thickens, about 5 minutes. Strain the sauce through a fine mesh sieve to remove the seeds. Set aside for later use.
• 
  
• Wrap tofu in cheesecloth and press out water from tofu by placing a heavy object on top for about 15 mins.
• Soak gelatine powder in water and leave aside for about 5 minutes.
• In a food processor,  blend cream cheese,  tofu, yogurt, fresh milk, NuNatural Presweet Tagatose and Vanilla Stevia till very smooth.
• Heat gelatin powder mixture in a double boiler till melted and add to cream cheese mixture and blend well.
• Divide cream cheese mixture into two portions, adding 4 1/2 tbsp raspberry sauce into one portion and blend well. Then pour raspberry cream cheese into prepared pan and put it in the freezer for about 10 minutes to semi set.
• Gently pour the plain cream cheese on top of the raspberry cream cheese and shake the pan a little then smoothen with a rubber spatula or a scraper. Add dots of raspberry sauce on the surface  and use a chopstick to create heart shaped swirls.
• Chill cake in refrigerator for at least 4 hours or overnight.
• For perfect slices, cut cheesecake with a hot knife.
