An easy fit for a low-sugar day.

Cashew Butter carries roughly 3 g of sugar per 1 oz, which works out to about 9.1 g per 100 g. That places it in the 'low' band for a typical serving.

Because this sugar occurs naturally in the food itself, it typically comes packaged with fibre, water, or other nutrients that slow how fast it hits your bloodstream — unlike the same amount of sugar added to a processed product.
