You want to show love on Valentine’s Day. But many people are cutting back on the amount of extra sugar they consume and we want to be respectful of their choices while still celebrating a special day.
Show your love with these alternative gifts – for yourself or your Someone Special.
Sugar-free chocolates.
Darker, more pure chocolates have less sugar. Check the labels.
Heart-shaped “samplers” also come full of various healthy nuts. Seriously!
Find a bakery nearby that includes low-sugar offerings made with healthier ingredients.
Cherries, apples, plums and strawberries are fruits that pair well with many desserts and are great alternatives to a sweeter food.
Of course, there are ways to be “sweet” without being literally sweet:
A nice meal at a favorite restaurant…
A special glass of wine or cocktail…
Fresh flowers…
Something sexy to share in private…
With a little thought, you can send a wonderful message to whoever you choose, or to let it be known what you’d prefer to a traditional sugary gift. I hope this helps you navigate yet another holiday!
