A variety of candies, beverages and snacks are now being created in flavors that remind of the nostalgic, summery taste of orange cream ice pops, including Smart Baking Company's gluten-free snack cakes. The brand's Smartcakes, which are branded as "beyond gluten-free," are now available in a low-calorie format and an Orange Cream flavor.
Individual Smartcakes contain just 38 calories and provide five grams of fiber and four grams of protein, all without starch or sugar. Some of the key ingredients in the simple, gluten-free snack cakes are monk fruit as a sweetener, eggs, whey protein isolate and a proprietary fiber blend of oat fiber, corn fiber and flax.
As a satisfying summer flavor, the Orange Cream Smartcakes will only be offered as part of a limited release.
