On this 4th of July weekend, treat your family to something fruity and light! Strawberries are in season so you can absolutely make something fresh and sweet while still being sugar conscious. For example, this Strawberry Angel Food Cake is delicious with the natural sweetness of the fruit!

Quick desserts are the best, especially when you have to make them for your family! Sometimes you only need a few ingredients and a mixed packet to make something really delicious.

Angel food cake is probably my favorite baked good! It is light and fluffy with a delicate sweetness that I can't get enough of. However, if I wanted to mix it up with different flavorings, angel food cake goes great with fruits or sweets like chocolate. Try to keep an eye out for sugar free cakes like the Hill and Valley Sugar Free Angel Food Cake as they are great for making quick, sugar free desserts.

Just because something is labeled "light" does not mean it is healthy! Always remember to look at the ingredients in the products you buy to make sure they fit into your lifestyle. For example, the Starbucks Mocha Light Frappuccino still has full sugar and is only considered "light" only because it uses skim milk and has no whipped cream.
