Sugar free home preserving is centred around the idea of reducing the amount of sugar in our diets. The more we study food science, the more we realise that sugar is not so good for us and that we must limit our sugar intake. However, that does not mean that we cannot enjoy the same delicious foods that we have become accustomed to. In fact, we can make those same foods without sugar by using natural alternative sweeteners or foregoing sweeteners altogether.

Valerie Pearson, co-founder and owner of Green Living Australia has been a home preserver for over 30 years. Borne from the need to make additive free foods for health reasons, Valerie studied food science in an effort to come up with healthier options, including sugar free. Valerie began teaching preserving workshops at her company Green Living Australia and now works full time as a presenter, teacher and author, sharing her sugar free lifestyle with others.
