Sugar free desserts


The Thinnery has served the Upland community for 35 years and is currently the only sugar free bakery in Southern California that offers healthy alternatives while satisfying any sweet tooth.

With "no guilt feelings" as their motto, this bakery offers a solution to the problem of consuming half a day's calorie intake after eating a slice of cake.

Saccharin, maltitol, apple juice, Splenda and fructose are used as a replacement for sugar in their recipes. Saccharin, an artificial sweetener that is used to lower the calorie count, is an ingredient that tends to leave a bitter after taste which is why it is mixed with a variety of alternative sweeteners.

According to The Thinnery's nutrition facts, their mousse brownies contain approximately 125 calories. In comparison, a Starbucks double chocolate brownie contains 410 calories. Like their mousse brownies, most of their desserts are less than half the usual calorie count of a specific pastry.

The Thinnery also offers custom made cakes and cupcakes, but because the sugar and cholesterol free whipped cream melts easily, they do not make wedding cakes. In addition to their large selection of baked goods, The Thinnery recently added vegan free cinnamon rolls and donuts as well as a gluten free menu.

  1. i used to go to the Thinnery in West LA in 1980, and it was the best thing since sliced bread, ha-ha. I'd ride my bike up there and back and it was the perfect combo for sin-free sinning! Oh no- feel a buzz-phrase coming on...Get Your Sinnery at The Thinnery!
