FAQ
THIS TASTES LIKE REAL CANDY, HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE WITHOUT ADDING SUGAR?
We have fallen for a sweet alternative called Erythritol which occurs naturally in e.g fruits, mushrooms and algae. Together with a pinch of Steviol glycosides it makes up the perfect sweetness in our products, without the common off-notes often associated with these sweetening alternatives. Too good to be true? No – just a lot of work behind it!
I´M I DIABETIC. ARE TWEEK SWEETS OK FOR ME TO EAT?
Since our sweets are made without adding loads of sugar our products only contain traces of sugars- naturally occurring in the fiber blend and in the lactose-free milk powder we are using.(max. 5g/100g). Tolerability and effects on blood sugar differ from one individual to another. Therefore we can not make any general statements our line of products are suitable for all diabetics.
MOST SUGARFREE/SUGAR REDUCED ALTERNATIVES I HAVE TRIED MAKES MY STOMACH UNHAPPY – SHOULD I EXPECT THE SAME WITH SWEETS FROM TWEEK ?
Most sugar-free/sugar reduced sweets on the market can have unwanted effects on our bowel even when consumed in fairly small amounts. Erythritol is indeed considered a sugar alcohol but is one of the sugar alcohols with the highest tolerance levels. In addition to this the amount of Erythritol in our products is so small they aren´t considered laxative. Our sweets are high in fiber and can have an effect on sensitive stomachs. All individuals are different, try what feels best for you.
YOU CLAIM YOUR SWEETS HAVE LESS CALORIES THAN TRADITIONAL CANDY- HOW IS THAT POSSIBLE?
Erythritol and Steviol glycosides are virtually free from energy. Additionally, the amount of digestible carbohydrates in our sweets are significantly lower than in regular sweets. Therefore our candy has a reduced energy level. WHERE CAN I BUY SWEETS FROM TWEEK? On our website, you can buy all our pre-packed bags.
