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.

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.

Instructions

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

  5. When the cones are completely cool, pop a couple of halved strawberries into the bottom and either pipe or spoon the creamy filling into them. Add some more strawberries to the top and enjoy!

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

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