Who doesn’t love a bite of chocolate from time to time?  By using recipes for diabetes chocolates, you can have it a lot more often. Diabetes chocolates are typically made with healthier ingredients, so even though they are not entirely healthy, they are much better for you than your normal alternative.

Recipes for diabetes chocolates usually call for sugar substitutes like Equal or Splenda. One of the benefits of artificial sweeteners is that they usually don’t raise blood sugar levels because they are not carbohydrates. They also allow you to add sweets to your diabetic diets without a high amount of calories. According to the Mayo Clinic, artificial sweeteners have virtually no calories, where each gram of table sugar contains approximately 4 calories, which can add up quickly when you eat sweets or drink sodas often.
