Great healthier sugar replacement
We have been using different artificial sweeteners for a while now and generally, most have been pretty good, though we would try this large pack as it was such great value. The pack is huge, I was expecting it to be similar to a 1Kg back of sugar but it is quite a bit bigger than that.
When the sugar is out of the bag it is finely granulated, each chuck is probably about a quarter of the size of a grain of granulated sugar. This fineness of the granules makes it flow nicely and I imagine if you were to use them for baking they would dissolve easier than granulated sugar due to the increased surface area. I have used this in coffee and it does dissolve in coffee very easily and quickly which is nice, so there is less chance of bits left at the bottom of the cup.
We have sprinkled this on cereals and fruit and it works exactly as expected, the taste is nice and sweet, but it is a little different to sugar, the only word I can use to describe it is ‘chemically’ but I think it is more the artificial sweetness as opposed to being due to chemicals.
The sweeter feels a bit lighter than sugar also, which is nice but as you are meant to use half the amount of this compared to regular sugar then missing out of the weight makes it feel like you should use more.
