Diabetic friendly, Great for weight watchers

or if you just need to cut sugar out of your diet...

Why Cocoa La Prima is a good option for those living with diabetes..

What are sugar levels?

Our bodies convert starch and sugars into energy, like fuel for a car. However, too much sugar can disrupt proper functioning, leading to obesity, inflammation, and other health issues. Blood sugar levels refer to the amount of glucose in the blood, and when they rise too high, it can cause serious complications over time.

The sugar in regular hot chocolate..

Many hot chocolate mixes are packed with sugar and additives, which can be harmful, especially for people with diabetes or those prone to obesity. When mixed with milk, the sugar content increases even further. A typical 250ml cup contains about 25g of sugar, not including other starchy foods like cakes or pastries often served with it, leading to a significant spike in blood sugar levels.

La prima..

Cocoa la prima is formulated without additional sugar making it a better option to use for hot chocolate with your favourite milk and other chocolate recipes, helping to reduce the amount of net sugar you get from the recipe. Your blood sugar level will not rise high after consumption.

Sugar alcohol: Erythritol and Stevia

Sugar alcohols are often listed as carbs on food labels, but they don't raise blood sugar levels in the same way regular sugars do. This is because sugar alcohols are not fully absorbed by the body, so they don't have as much impact on blood glucose. This is why you see them regularly used in products aimed at those watching their sugar levels.

30 cups of hot chocolate at only 80p per cup?? (400g pack)

Not only is Cocoa la prima tasty and sugar free, but it is also significantly cheaper than purchasing a cup of hot chocolate from a cafeteria or coffee shop.

Why not give it a chance?

Ask us anything

01. Why don't you use maltodextrin or suclarose?

Maltodextrin is made from corn, rice, potato starch, or wheat, whilst suclarose is an artificial sweetener made from sugar.

Both maltodextrin and Sucralose are high on the glycemic index, meaning they can quickly raise blood sugar after you eat them.

Therefore, they both spike blood sugar levels, making it
unsuitable for people living with diabetes.

02. Is cocoa la prima keto friendly?

YES! Cocoa La prima is formulated with natural cocoa, you can add this to your keto diet.

03. Apart from hot chocolate, what else can I use la prima for?

Cocoa La prima can be used in all recipes that requires cocoa powder and sugar. For example, cakes, pancakes, breads, cookies, pastries, coating of pastries and cakes, puddings, chocolates and many, many more….infact, let your imagination fly :)

04. Is erythritol and stevia safe to consume?

Erythritol and stevia are natural sweeteners derived from foods. They are zero calories and they rank 0 on the glycemic index. This means that they do not raise your blood sugar when consumed.

However, because about 20% of the erythritol you eat makes its way to the small intestine, some people may experience some digestive upset if they over-consume it.

This is why we use below a certain amount in each serving of cocoa la prima.

05. Is your packaging, environmentally friendly?

Yes! They can be recycled.
