Guest guest Posted August 31, 2004 Report Share Posted August 31, 2004 Hi everyone. I'm happy we are having the Splenda "talk" because I'm battling a sugar problem right now ... which one to buy!!! I just bought Dextrose ... awesome taste, not to sweet, and would be okay for baking instead of cane sugar but I'm looking for something a little more sweet and as close to "sugar" as I can find. Does anyone have any suggestions? I've heard Stevia is so sweet that you don't use anywhere near the amounts as refined sugar but have also heard 50 / 50 stories on the taste. Would love to hear what you guys like personally & why. Thanks, Julie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 2, 2004 Report Share Posted September 2, 2004 Hello, We use stevia for tea, etc. but I don't use it for cooking. I love real organic maple syrup and I use organic evaporated cane sugar such a Rapadura. Also, we use real local honey. Honey that has no sugar added and no sugar fed to the bees. I have warned and warned friends about chemical sweetners...most don't want to hear it. so sad... SharonLovingRodney wrote: Hi everyone.

Guest guest Posted September 6, 2004 Report Share Posted September 6, 2004 You might want to try date sugar. I use brown sugar, date sugar, maple syrup and molasses depending upon what I need it for. --- LovingRodney wrote: > Hi everyone.
