These look delicious but from a diabetic's point of view they would not be considered sugar or carb free. Apples contain fructose which although healthier than refined sugar, is still a sugar. Honey whilst containing anti inflammatory properties is still a form of sugar. Sugars are simple carbohydrates which raise blood sugar levels. Many diabetics follow ketogenic low carb diets to control their blood sugar levels. So it is worth bearing in mind that this lovely dessert though made if natural ingredients should be considered an occasional treat for those managing blood sugars.
