In our small guide below, we will discuss how to make cloud bread plus whether or not it's worth making compared to standard bread.

What Is Cloud Bread?

First of all, before we get into how to make this wonderful syn free bread, let's discuss first what it is. Cloud bread was created by people a couple of years back who wanted to avoid heavily carbohydrate bread according to their diet, this also worked out nicely for slimming world people as they could avoid syns in their bread due to it being made with SYN FREE ingredients.

Cloud bread has around half the calories of normal bread and has a good amount of protein due to egg whites being one of the main ingredients, the sweetener also makes it taste much more like normal bread.

SW Cloud Bread Vs Normal Bread

So if you can get syn free bread and make it right at home, you might be wondering why anyone would waste their syns on high-carb normal bread, well, this is because cloud bread does not taste the best and can have a slightly chewy texture.

Cloud bread although low in syns, is not filling or satisfying and take a fair amount of time to make for a small piece of bread. In comparison to normal bread where you can even use wholemeal as your healthy extra B, we would not recommend it daily.

Should I Eat Cloud Bread On Slimming World?

To conclude, if you really want to save some syns or maybe you have used your whole syn allowance for the day and need bread for a meal, making your own syn free cloud bread could be a great option. But for replacing bread daily, we would not recommend it and would suggest using wholemeal bread as your HeXB instead to reduce syns, this is much more nutritional and satisfying.

Frequently Asked Questions

How are syn values calculated?

Syn values are calculated using a formula based on calories, saturated fat and sugar content per serving. They’re not the same as calories — a product can be low in calories but higher in syns if it’s high in sugar or fat. Always check the official Slimming World app for the most accurate and up-to-date syn values.

Do syn values change?

Yes. When manufacturers reformulate their products, the syn value can go up or down. This is why we recommend double-checking with the Slimming World app or your consultant, especially if a product’s packaging has changed recently.

How many syns should I have per day?

Most Slimming World members work with 5 to 15 syns per day. Your consultant will advise on the right amount for you. The key is to use your syns on the things you enjoy most — whether that’s a chocolate bar, a glass of wine, or a packet of crisps.
