Good day. My name is Nancy Heemskerk, I am 37 years old and live in Goes with my family.
I love sweets and love to bake. I also like to go vintage, second-hand and thrift shopping. Two and a half years ago, I was unexpectedly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. This forced me to change my outlook on food quite a bit! Especially baking sweet treats is quite a challenge with diabetes. Although I can eat anything, eating low-carb works best for me. It makes it easier for me to keep my values balanced, something that is very important for my health. The tricky thing about low-carb eating is that there is often little volume in the food; it doesn't fill up. However, Healthy Bakers' low-carbohydrate breads are filling, and they are so low in carbs that I don't have to worry about my values!
I think the Healthy Bakers webshop is well organized. There is no endless supply so you can't see the wood for the trees. Recently there has been more attention for sourdough products. I think these products are not low-carb, but that is not entirely clear to me. The ordering process on the website is easy and there are often nice discount offers. I always get my products super fast. Very nice! Then I store the bread in the freezer. Depending on how much time I have, I heat it up in the microwave or in the airfryer. The airfryer gives the bread a crispy bite. The low-carb bread itself has a fairly neutral taste and, for me, pairs well with savory toppings like vegetable spread and cheese. But a layer of butter with sprinkles also tastes great. The best thing about Healthy Bakers' low-carb products is that, despite my diabetes, I can continue to participate with my family. When they want to eat a hamburger sandwich, I can also enjoy it without worry.
