NOW Foods Erythritol Natural Sweetener- 1lb (Pack of 2)

Purchased to try it on our cake, but it has after taste effect or maybe I am not used to it. Offer price is nice compared to supermarket.

definitely does a good job to substitute sugar especially with cold foods.. doesn't do all that well in hot drinks or foods

I can't tell the difference from sugar......looks, tastes, and acts the same. Good product

Excellent

nice

taste bitter

Erythritol is a new sugar substitute to me - as of right now it's not my favorite but it's not the worst one I've tried either.

Best sugar substitute I have ever used. Absolutely no after taste.... it is a natural sugar not like some of those with Aspertane. You will have to try it to believe it. if you are trying any of the THIN HEALTHY MAMMA reciepes this is one that is highly favored. You have simply got to have chocolate???? but you cannot blow it with the sugar. Take a chance and try this eciepe with this product.. you will be amazed.FUDGE3/4 st butter1/2 cup natural peanut butter2 oz 1/3 less fat cream cheese2 TBS of cocoa (unsweetened of course)begin with 1/2 cup Erythritol (you can add or subtract to the sweet taste you want. Erythritol is basically equal measues with regular surar. as 1 cup sugar you would use 1cup Erythritol. I cant remembe how much I used but the receipe is online with THM others.Do not melt butter or cream cheese just soften. put all this together in a bowl and mix well. Pour into a glass pie plate or etc.then put into refrig or freezer. In 15 min cut into bite size pieces. No cooking, no guessing if it will firm up. Just keep refrigerated,,,,, roll into balls if you like but I can tell you this one thing alone sold me on this product..... You need to understand a little about why you can use the butter & cream cheese if dieting. But to cut back on your sugar this is a BIG DEAL. DH

I've been a fan of products from NOW Foods for a long time 'now'. (Pardon the pun)I ordered the Erythritol Natural Sweetener from NOW via Amazon - and use it as regular sugar. I prefer its taste as I do not like the taste of Stevia. I have a stevia plant at home and can deal with just putting a leaf or two in my tea - but other than that I usually cook (bake, sprinkle, or sauce) Erythritol Natural Sweetener. I just use it as if it's the regular organic cane sugar I still sometimes buy. I know - I'm complex!

Erythritol is not as sweet as I thought it would be, so I plan to buy some organic stevia and mix the two. It does have some sweetness and I like the fact that it is GMO free and has a Zero glycemic index. This sugar alcohol is suppose to be the best sugar alcohol their is. Sugar alcohols are also considered natural since they are produced by natural processes like fermentation. Sugar alcohols are suppose to be very good for diabetics as well as stevia and I want to use this, since there is diabetes in my family, and I want to do everything I can do to keep from getting diabetes. Sugar is VERY INFLAMMATORY and artificial sweeteners are very bad for people to use, as well as HFCS. Agave (anything) Inulin, and Maltodextrin the large quantities that are used in some stevia blends so only use stevia blends with Erythritol. Even though honey and maple syrup are natural sweeteners, they are still sugar. Anyone suffering from Inflammatory diseases needs to stop using all the sweeteners listed above. Use Erythritol and stevia instead. I plan to continue to buy this product and add organic stevia to it esp since it will make a bulk sweeteners instead of having to rip open a dozen packets.

It does have zero calories as well as zero carbs, which it's great for my keto diet, but it's not as sweet as other reviews claim it is; at least to me. I tried on coffee, and it does have a cooling aftertaste, and I had to put at least like 4 or 5 tsp just to have a small taste of sweetness, which with the small amount of oz this package containers, would not last me a while. I bake some sugar free chocolate chips cookies, and again that cooling effect does not sit well. I basicly threw the whole batch out. I tried again, and bake a sugar free cheesecake, and it work great. I did love the way it tasted. I also turn some into powder sugar on my Ninja, and it turns out great. It does work better this way, no cooling aftertaste.
