I found a recipe for a low-fat, low joule dessert that’s embarrassingly simple to make. It’s an Espresso Sorbetto and the ingredients are espresso coffee, low fat milk and a little sugar. The recipe is at http://www.republicacoffee.com.au
The bonus is that the Republica brand of coffee is 100% Fair Trade Coffee. They guarantee that every single bean they use is Fair Trade certified, which means that the coffee farmers get a fair price for their crop and their labour. Coffee is a valuable and much traded commodity - just look on the Commodities Exchange or the Futures Exchange. Chocolate comes into the same category, so it may reassure you that you can absolve some of your guilt for indulging in these simple pleasures by buying Fair Trade. Republica’s motto is, “Doesn’t that leave a good taste in your mouth!” (TM).
I found the coffee in my local supermarket. The price compares with top of the range brands, so I’ll be doing a taste comparison over the next few days.
Their website is well worth a visit http://www.republicacoffee.com.au
