How does vitamuffins get to create chocolate muffins at around 100 calorites, and still use real chocolate?!
Answers: seriously.
chocolate in itself isnt the calorie adder, its all the fats and oils. and sugars...
you can make wonderful baked goods with real chocolate (unsweetned) and bake with fruit purees like apple sauce in place of most oils, and egg whites without the yolks for cholesteral and cut back on sugars, use honey and some sweetners like spenda... there are wonderful healthy treats make this way
It isn't solid chocolate. I can make a pancake out of mud, add 1 hershey kiss, and LEGALLY claim that it is made "with real chocolate." Welcome to the cruel world of marketing. Look at another REAL scenario. Fortified bread for instance. You'll see on the label "now fortified with B vitamins!" You'll think "oooh great more B's!" In reality, during the actual bread making process, B vitamins are stripped out of the flour during its refining phase. They are later put back into the bread (so nothing was REALLY added) and then claimed to be "fortified!" Make sense? Just because there is chocolate in something doesn't mean there is a lot of it. Same with jewelry. Real diamond earings...except they are 1/20 carat. TINY AS HECK...but they are REAL DIAMONDS! Very manipulative, so be a smart shopper and do the research. If it's too good to be true...it is.
Magic. Evil vitamuffins....:P
By baking it with nonfat ingredients.
