I read another review on a different product-it said don't use with high sugar content, carrots-anything like that in the instructions here?

Instructions say cook anything you want. I cook carrots all the time. This is one of the best products I have. I want a bigger one.

I have steamed broccoli green beans carrots and many more items in the Mastrad steamer. A little more but well worth it

I've used this product with everything and anything and I found no problems with all veggies, meats and even biscuits.

Yes just yesterday I did a cup cake batter with carrots I just had to flip the dispenser upside down and spray it with water to make sure no carrots are stuck at the end , also soak it in water for five minutes before you start washing it

I have no idea. does it really matter? the final result is perfect.no matter what reciepe you use. this shouldn't be healthy if you have a healthy diet ; same as other bakery products :)

Sorry, I haven't. I do however, use honey sometimes instead of organic sugar. I use very little of either.

That is a good question which I have not investigated nor compared the sugar content to other brands. I do know that the company states that they use coconuts from a certain area of the Philippines which are the sweetest: "Our coconuts are harvested from the prized Nakorn Pathom province, where they grow larger and taste sweeter than from any other region in the world." It is also a large can (16.2 oz)and contains quite a bit of coconut meat and has 2 gm of fiber. I certainly hope that they are not adding sugar on the sly! You might want to contact the company to discuss this. If you find out, please left us know. I am pre-diabetic and am trying to keep my sugar consumption down.

There is only 1g of sugar. I mix it with my green juice in the morning . Never tried it by itself. It's mostly fiver. Hope this helps

I haven't tried that, but my key ingredient is overripe frozen bananas. They make everything much sweeter.

Use it in carrot bread or carrot cake. Same with the beets if you can find a recipe for a bread or cake using beets. Might need to add a little juice too.

I only have a humble Donvier, and am looking for something like this machine, but I have made Ice cream with Splenda (excellent) and Stevia (not so good, but I think it was bad stevia) and used substantially less of each than the sugar called for in the recipes. Consistency was fine, though I sometimes add a little gelatin if making a reduced fat batch. I would think you could make a no sugar added recipe that's fine as long as you use the Splenda. Not sure about other substitutes.

It says no added sugar. However, rice is glycemic. If you must be on a non-glycemic diet I suppose this wouldn't be for you. My interpretation of "no added sugar" is exactly that, none was added to the natural sugar contained in the rice, as opposed to sweeten the protein with sugar, honey, syrup or what have you.

Not to my knowledge..I just looked at the ingredients and couldn't find any sugar additives..

We only use hard candy instead of sugar. However, one must not overload the machine. Think of it as squeezing oranges for orange juice. You can only get a little at a time, but patience pays off. My advice would be to make small batches and slowly load the cone as the spun sugar accumulates. Also, make sure the machine is good and warmed up initially.

I have had luck w thicker carrots, peel them then boil them for a bit. once they are a bit more pliable try again.

I use this to make jams and jellies with very low sugar. I have never had a problem cooking it, or using it to add to a batch that is too large for a traditional box. Use low sugar boxes with this if you mix. I try to get the same brand as well, for consistency.

I agree. Have since found other products that have no added sugars. No longer use agave products due to higher fructose levels.

Hi, While our slicer has only had to deal with garlic, the chef says that ginger should not be a problem. One may get thick or thin slices by the pressure applied to the item being sliced. With the extremely sharp cutter blade, most any food substance up to a shallot, or similar, should be fair game. When asked about carrots, no. Things likely to become gummy were also a no-no.
