Every Artinci product has no added sugar. Most are sweetened with SweetSmart, our blend of erythritol, FOS (a prebiotic fibre) and stevia, which is certified low-GI at CFTRI, Mysore (a Government of India funded facility).

We come from three generations of diabetics ourselves, which is why we started Artinci. We never use jaggery, honey, dates or maltodextrin.

Our sweets still contain carbs from cashews, besan and almonds, and each product page lists carbs and net carbs per serving. Everyone responds differently, so if you are managing diabetes, check with your doctor about what fits your diet.

Our sweeteners have little to no effect on blood sugar. The carbs that come from nuts, besan and flour still count, so every product page lists net carbs per serving, for example 5.3 g per 30 g of Kaju Katli.

We test our recipes on ourselves with Continuous Glucose Monitors (CGM). In our tests:

• Keto products such as our almond cakes and cookies show a near-flat line
• Traditional sweets show a gentle rise, far smaller than regular mithai

Your response depends on portion, what else you eat and your own body, so start small and see how it suits you.

Sweets with no added sugar and low net carbs cause a much smaller rise on a CGM than sugar-based sweets, which cause a sharp spike.

Yes. Our testing includes:

• Sweeteners lab-tested and certified low-GI at CFTRI, Mysore
• Founders personally test every new recipe's blood sugar impact
• Fingerprick blood sugar checks
• Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM)

These are our own tests, not a clinical trial, and everyone responds differently.

Yes, it makes a thoughtful gift. It is real mithai with no added sugar, so loved ones who watch their sugar can share in Diwali, birthdays and anniversaries too. The nutrition is printed on every pack, and gift boxes are available.

Sugar-free desserts are versions of traditional sweets made without added sugar. Instead they use low-glycemic sweeteners such as stevia, erythritol or monk fruit.

They still have carbs from their main ingredients, but far less than regular mithai, which makes them a popular choice for people watching their sugar or following keto.

Most Artinci products use SweetSmart, our own plant-based blend of:

• Erythritol - a sugar alcohol found naturally in fruits
• FOS - a prebiotic fibre
• Stevia - a plant-based sweetener
• Monk Fruit - in select products

SweetSmart is certified low-GI at CFTRI, Mysore. Motichoor Laddu is sweetened with FOS only.

We never use:

• ❌ Aspartame, Sucralose, Acesulfame or Saccharin
• ❌ Maltodextrin (a high-GI filler)
• ❌ Maltitol or Sorbitol

Stevia is a plant-based sweetener that is 200-350 times sweeter than sugar, so very little is needed.

Sugar is quickly absorbed and raises blood glucose. Stevia has a Glycemic Index (GI) of 0 and does not raise blood sugar on its own, which is why we use it in place of sugar.

No, never. We only use plant-based, naturally derived sweeteners.

Our products are completely free from artificial chemicals like Aspartame, Sucralose, Acesulfame, and Saccharin. This aligns with our clean and transparent ingredient philosophy.

Because dates and jaggery are still mostly sugar (around 60-70%) and raise blood glucose much like refined sugar.

We want our sweets to be genuinely free of added sugar, so we use SweetSmart (erythritol, FOS and stevia) instead.

No maida. Our sweets are built on cashews, besan, pure desi ghee and nuts. Our almond, marble and keto cakes and our almond cookies use almond flour. Our eggless chocolate and coffee cakes use a low-carb flour blend that includes whole wheat.

Every ingredient is listed on the product page and the pack.

Many of them, yes. These fit most keto diets:

• Almond Flour Cakes - 2.2 to 2.5 g net carbs per 50 g slice
• Almond Cookies - under 1 g net carbs per cookie
• Kaju Katli - 5.3 g net carbs per 30 g
• Mysore Pak - 3.2 g net carbs per 25 g

Motichoor Laddu and Besan Laddu suit moderate low-carb diets. Check each product page for exact numbers.

Net carbs for our most popular keto picks:

• Almond Cookies: under 1 g per cookie
• Almond Flour Cakes: 2.2 to 2.5 g per 50 g slice
• Mysore Pak: 3.2 g per 25 g
• Sugar-Free Kaju Katli: 5.3 g per 30 g

Each product page lists the full nutrition per serving.

Our sweets, cookies and cakes are low-carb with no added sugar, so they can fit a low-carb eating plan.

They are real food made with nuts, ghee and butter, so they do have calories. Enjoy them as a treat and check the calories per serving on each product page.

No, this is an important distinction.

"Sugar-Free" means no added sugar. Products still contain carbohydrates from main ingredients like cashews, almonds and besan.

That is why every product page lists carbs and net carbs per serving. Most of our sweets have under 10 g net carbs per serving.

Stevia and erythritol are permitted sweeteners in India and are widely used.

If you are pregnant, managing gestational diabetes, or buying for young children, please check with your doctor first. Erythritol in large amounts can upset sensitive stomachs, so keep portions small.

Yes! We've spent years perfecting our recipes to ensure the same texture as traditional sweets - the fudge-like, melt-in-your-mouth experience.

Most customers cannot tell the difference between our products and regular mithai or desserts.

No. We spent years perfecting our proprietary SweetSmart sweetener blend to eliminate the bitter, metallic aftertaste associated with low-quality stevia.

Each sweetener blend is customized for different dessert types. Our goal is to deliver authentic taste and texture indistinguishable from traditional sweets.

We avoid Maltitol and Sorbitol, the sweeteners most known for bloating.

Erythritol is gentler on most people, but it is a sugar alcohol, and large amounts can upset sensitive stomachs. Start with a small portion.

Because you're paying for premium ingredients, not cheap fillers.

In regular mithai, up to 50% of the weight is inexpensive sugar and maida. Our desserts are made primarily with:

• Nutrient-dense nuts (cashews, almonds)
• Premium sweeteners (lab-tested Stevia blend)
• Quality ingredients with nutritional value

We don't use maida or cheap fillers, so you get both taste and nutrition in every bite. The cost reflects superior quality ingredients.
