Five Calorie Desserts? Yes Please!

I have always had a sweet tooth. I love pie and cake so much and crave them often but I usually feel guilty about the amount of calories it requires to satisfy my cravings. This is why I was so glad to hear that Juicy Fruit has launched a line of gum that is going to help us satisfy our cravings anywhere, anytime and without the empty calories.

Juicy Fruit Desserts is a sugar-free gum available in the same flavours as some of Canada's favourite desserts. You can now find Strawberry Shortcake, Orange Crème Pop and Apple Pie on store shelves in the form of 5 calorie sticks of gum. Juicy Fruit Desserts gum is available at retailers across the country for a suggested retail price of $1.69 (single, 15-piece pack) and $3.99 (multipack with three, 15-piece packs).

My family had the chance to try all three flavours of Juicy Fruit Desserts gum. We started with the apple pie flavour. My sons and I loved it! The cinnamon and apple flavour was spot on and it would definitely satisfy an apple pie craving. Next we tried Strawberry Shortcake. I have to admit, none of us were fans of this one. The flavours just didn't seem to blend well. So on the Orange Crème Pop. This was the big hit! We all loved the creamy orange flavour and we were gushing so much that my husband (who usually only chews minty gum) joined in the taste test and agreed that it was delicious. Each variety had long lasting flavour and a nice aroma.

Whether you are watching your waistline or just looking for some interesting new choices in gum, Wrigley's Juicy Fruit Dessert gum provides a delicious, low-calorie option from a trusted company.
