Detox Desserts, which introduced the first-of-its-kind superfood healthy dessert line throughout the Southwest, has created an online bakery for aficionados, corporate and personal gifts and for special events. It is the first and only physician-created healthy bakery in Arizona.
According to Dr. Alexis McNeil, NMD, the company’s founder and chief executive officer, the new bakery was created as a result of customer demand.
The Carefree, Arizona, business is the only known physician-created, clinically tested food product line proven to keep blood sugar and insulin levels low. And all the desserts offered are gluten-free, sugar-free, vegan and low carb and are available for pick-up or delivery. Detox Desserts’ proprietary ingredients are based on the Mediterranean Diet, which is well known for its health-promoting benefits. The company replaces saturated fats and cholesterol found in traditional desserts with protein-rich, plant-based alternatives.
“Our line simplifies healthy baking by providing ingredient substitutes for flour, sugar, eggs and butter that transform guilty foods into superfoods with delicious results,” says McNeil. “Our ‘Sweet Swaps’ work synergistically to promote metabolic balance, improve digestion and promote healthy cholesterol levels using nutrient-dense, functional foods to replace the unwanted, unhealthy ingredients found in traditional desserts. Our desserts are handmade in small batches using our physician-formulated, clinically tested ingredients. We’ve obsessively packed our desserts with nutrient-dense goodness and mouth-watering decadence.”
