Natural Sweets: Snacking without artificial additives

Sometimes it's the little pleasures of everyday life that bring a smile to our faces: a chocolatey moment of indulgence after a long day, a fruity snack during the afternoon rush or a little treat with friends. But how often does a guilty conscience accompany sweet indulgence? Too much sugar, artificial additives, unhealthy ingredients - it doesn't have to be that way.

With Natural Sweets, snacking becomes a conscious decision. These vegan, sugar-free sweets are completely free from refined sugar and artificial additives. Instead, natural, raw vegan ingredients such as dates, cashews and cocoa beans provide a sweet alternative that makes cravings for conventional sweets a thing of the past. Snacking without artificial additives means opting for sweets that do not contain any chemical flavourings, colourings or preservatives. The focus is on natural ingredients that not only tantalise the taste buds, but also support the body with valuable nutrients. This is because the nutrients are retained in the raw vegan diet thanks to the particularly gentle processing. Once you taste the difference, you will realise how enjoyable and satisfying natural sweetness can be.

What does "natural sweets" actually mean?

Natural sweets are sweets that do not contain any artificial additives. Instead, natural sweeteners such as dates, apple syrup, coconut blossom sugar or dried fruit are used. These natural alternatives not only contain less fructose, but also provide minerals and nutrients.

Natural sweetness - variety and use

Dates

Dates are the perfect basis for natural sweets. Their sweet, slightly caramelised flavour is ideal for energy balls, muesli bars or desserts. They contain fibre and minerals such as potassium and magnesium. They are favoured in raw food cuisine as they remain unprocessed and therefore retain all their nutrients. For best storage, dates should be kept in a cool, dry place.

Apple syrup

Raw apple syrup is an excellent way to sweeten food and drinks. The syrup is gently thickened from fresh apple juice so that the natural flavours and nutrients are largely retained. It is ideal for smoothies, raw food desserts or as a fine addition to salad dressings. Apple syrup should be stored in a cool, dark place to preserve its quality.

Coconut blossom sugar

Coconut blossom sugar is an unrefined sugar with a subtle caramel flavour and is perfect for adding a subtle sweetness to dishes. Use it to refine vegan biscuits and cakes with a delicious coconut blossom icing. Thanks to its long shelf life, it stays fresh for a long time if stored in a dry place.

Dried fruit

Apricots, figs and mulberries bring natural sweetness to the kitchen and taste delicious both on their own and in recipes. Our Keimling Naturkost raw food mulberries, for example, impress with their soft consistency and sweet, fruity flavour - perfect for muesli, dried fruit mixes or as a healthy snack between meals. It is best to store the fruit in an airtight, dry place to preserve its freshness and quality.

But how does it taste? Surprisingly versatile!

Natural sweeteners often have a slightly nutty, caramel or even fruity flavour that enhances the taste of sweets and gives them a special depth. Almost all sweets can be flavoured with these ingredients: from fruity energy ballschocolate pralines and biscuits to creamy desserts - there are no limits to the imagination. Products such as date confectionery, nut bars and cocoa-cashew spread show how delicious and naturally sweet these alternatives can be.
