“People with diabetes or low-carb dieters can enjoy Stevia Naturals Hard Candy. These fruit-flavored candies contain 1.5 grams of sugar alcohols, no added sugar, and just three calories per serving. They’re the perfect on-the-go treat to fulfill a sweet tooth craving without causing a blood sugar spike,” recommends Haley Bishoff, RDN, a registered dietitian nutritionist and owner of Rūtsu Nutrition in Las Vegas, NV.
6. Sugar Free Jelly Beans
Sweeteners: Maltitol Syrup, Maltitol, Sucralose
Sugar-free jelly beans are one of the latest candies to introduce a sugar-free option. A 35-piece serving clocks at 100 calories and 33 grams of sugar alcohol. While this product has no added sugar, you may find that the sugar alcohols can still impact your blood sugar and still contain calories. Consider reducing your portion size or pairing these with a protein or high-fiber option for better blood sugars after snacking.
