Looking for a coffee creamer with lower calories, but that still adds a creamy flavor?
Califia Farms Unsweetened Better Half may be the one you want.
For Weight Watchers Freestyle purposes, up to 4 Tablespoons is 1 point, 6 Tablespoons is 2. It’s slightly lower in calories than Nutpods (at 10 calories per tablespoon), but has a slightly creamier taste.
It’s only 15 calories for 2T, Soy-free, dairy-free, gluten-free, carrageenan-free, non-GMO, kosher, and vegan.
It is NOT half and half or cream, it’s more like a beefed up almond milk.
On Amazon, comparing prices, the Nutpods 4 pack comes in at $0.32 per ounce, and the Califia Farms as an “add on” Prime item at $0.16 per ounce.
If you’re placing a Prime order, the Califia is definitely a better deal.
While neither of these products add the creaminess of a real heavy creamer, they are not bad!
I don’t use them to cook, however they are both recommended as acceptable alternatives to dairy in recipes that call for milk. I do use unsweetened almond milk, and honestly I can’t see using the Califia or Nutpods for a recipe that calls for 2-3 cups of milk, simply for the cost.
The Califia seems to make a better iced coffee as well. It seems to disperse and stay mixed better than Nutpods.
That’s my opinion on these products.
Happy Mothers Day to you all as well 🙂
