Delicious cakes do not need to be unhealthy sweet bombs – if you use smaller amounts of healthier sugars including raw molasses, coconut nectar and unsulphured (blackstrap) molasses. Using these type of sugars will provide nutrients that are devoid in refined, white sugar. Blackstrap molasses, in particular, are rich in iron, calcium and have a low GI, and are therefore absorbed slowly.
