(NAPSI)—Here’s a sweet idea: a delicious dessert with less fat and fewer calories.

Taking aim directly at the waistline of holiday dessert lovers, there’s now an all-natural, frozen whipped topping that boasts an incredible 30 calories per serving.

truwhip is 100 percent natural; free of genetically modified organisms; has no high-fructose corn syrup, hydrogenated oils, trans fats or gluten; and doesn’t contain the chemicals that other whipped toppings do.

You can use it on apple and pumpkin pies or as a topping in coffee drinks and hot cocoa. Try the topping in savory holiday recipes as well, replacing heavy cream with a great-tasting, healthful and easy-to-use alternative. You can also try truwhip in an easy, elegant dish such as this:

1¼ cups graham cracker crumbs (for crust)

5 tablespoons butter, melted
