If you are using a powdered sweetener, then please check how it compares to sugar. In some cases you’ll need to use less, as powdered sweeteners weigh less.

We’ve used quark as part of the filling for these Cream Horns. You could also use aerosol cream, but you would need to check the nutritional values accordingly. Aerosol cream doesn’t have the same stability as whipped quark, so if you use this then your Cream Horns would have to be eaten straight away.

You’ll need some Cream Horn Moulds to make them, and you can pick some up over on Amazon!

We use Sukrin Gold which is an all-natural granulated stevia sweetener alternative to sugar with zero calories. You can grab Sukrin Gold over on Amazon. Sukrin Gold doesn’t have that strange after taste that a lot of artificial sweeteners do! It also shares the exact same sweetness and weight to sugar.

That being said you don’t have to use Sukrin – there are lots of other high quality granulated sweeteners available from the supermarket, such as Canderel Sugarly, and Natvia.

How many calories are in these Cream Horns?

There are 129 calories per portion in these Cream Horns, which means they fall into our Everyday Light category. 

These Cream Horns are perfect if you’re following a calorie controlled diet, and fit well with any one of the major diet plans such as Weight Watchers. 

As a guide, an average man needs around 2,500kcal (10,500kJ) a day to maintain a healthy body weight. For an average woman, that figure is around 2,000kcal (8,400kJ) a day. Obviously, if your goal is to lose weight then you might want to adjust these slightly! You can read more about these recommendations on the NHS website.

Instructions

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 180ºC. Spray the cream horn moulds with low calorie cooking spray.

Step 2

Cut the Weight Watchers Wraps in half and wrap each half around a cream horn mould, pressing firmly. Brush with beaten egg and press firmly again to help the edges to stick.

Step 3

Cook in the oven for 10 minutes until golden.

Step 4

Meanwhile, in a small bowl, whip the quark, vanilla extract and White Chocolate Options sachet until light and fluffy. Cover and keep in the fridge. Remove the wrap cones from the oven and leave to cool completely.

Step 5

Add some more strawberries to the top and enjoy!

How do you know when these Cream Horns are cooked?

Cook the horns in the oven at 180 degrees for 10 minutes until golden.

Standard advice here in the UK is to cook food until it has reached 70°C and stayed at that temperature for 2 minutes. This is to keep your family safe. 

How long can you keep these Cream Horns in the fridge?

Once you’ve put this dish out, ideally you should eat it within 4 hours.

If you allow any leftovers to cool, make sure to refrigerate in a container with a lid and chill.  You can keep leftovers of Cream Horns in the fridge for approximately 3 days or so. 

Can I freeze Cream Horns?

We don’t recommend that you freeze this recipe.

What could be used instead of the mould I don’t have any

    Hi Gill, you could use an ice cream cornet wrapped in kitchen foil as an alternative to a cream horn mould. Hope this helps!

What can be used in place of quark ?

    HollyMonday 25th April 2022

    Hey Tamara, the best substitutes for quark in this recipe would be ricotta cheese, cream cheese or crème fraîche, hope that helps!
