Hi Val!
Thanks for contacting us about our new magazine! I can understand your concern seeing a bunch of sugar in a recipe in a low-carb magazine. But I wanted to clear something up - the recipe for the Flourless Chocolate Torte serves 12. Also in the article on the same page - "Chocolate-- yes, chocolate" the creator of the recipe, Gerado Leal, says the sugar in the recipe can be left out altogether, though the torte might not hold its shape and might not rise well. He also said a sugar substitute can be used in the recipe.

Thanks for reading so closely! We are sure you will enjoy the first issue when it debuts in May!

My best,
Jennifer Newton Reents
Editorial Director

Great, so now we'll deal with many members stalling and eating sugar, based on a low-carb magazine recipe, not knowing what's wrong, unless they ask the author (or read another article) to know they should not have followed the "low-carb" recipe from their "low-carb magazine? Or that they may substitute the sugar, if they want to?

They either don't know what low-carb is, or they don't care.

Wa'il
