Swerve Allulose Sweetener

In an effort to get as far away from sucralose (Splenda) as possible, I did some research and thought I’d give this a try. I can typically have the saccharin (sweet n low) & aspartame (equal) without issues, and they’re fine, but I thought I’d try something new in my coffee. It’s very interesting to say the least, not super sweet, sort of just “there” without being obnoxious or adding much flavor. I usually put five heaping teaspoons in my coffee. I like that there’s no real particular flavor to it, just a sweetness, and that it’s safer and doesn’t have any ingredients that can cause trouble. This brand is highly worth it when looking to replacing table sugar and sweeteners.

Doesn’t raise my blood sugar.

Tastes like sugar in baked goods. Use 1:1 to replace sugar In your recipes.

It's hard to find pure, healthy plant-based sweeteners that don't have additives that taste good and aren't so expensive and this is all those things

It has a mild after taste which I am able to manage by mixing it half-n-half with regular sugar. It is less sweet than sugar, hence requires more quantity. Due to which it is pricier than other low-calorie sugar substitutes.

I bought this because I thought it might be a safer alternative and better tasting than other sweeteners. I believe it was also said to be more like sugar. I had no side effects from it which I do get with other sugar substitutes. It was said to be less bitter, but I found it left a slightly bitter after taste. I'd rather use sugar, but I'm pre-diabetic.

Doesn't leave bitter after taste.
