ALMOND FLOUR:
- Almond flour soaks up the extra moisture content and prevents the bake from getting watery. Fine form of this flour is good for providing smoothness in the dish.
ERYTHRITOL:

VANILLA ESSENCE:

BAKING POWDER:

SALT:
- Salt will help to improve the taste and to stabilize the sweet taste. We have to use a pinch of salt, which provides an obvious difference.
