Alice's comment - PersonalCooker
Yes, I know I know: this dessert is not light at all! So, if you want to make your panna cotta less sinful, I recommend mixing a part of cream with a part of milk and replacing the sugar with half fructose. So we wouldn't have too many remorse after having delighted the palate with this dessert!Nutritional values and Health Comment on the recipe
