PESACH COOKIES AND CAKES

Nutrition facts will vary with different manufacturers. This is just a partial list. Since most Pesach products are similarly manufactured it is probably safe to assume that similar products will have more or less the same amount of carbohydrates. Since Pesach products are made from, potato starch, sugar and/or Matzo meal, they are all, basically, almost pure sugar. With enough preparation time one should have no problem making some snacks on their own with fewer carbs. See some of our recipes below. As always the best way to go is good old fashioned “home made”.
