View Full Version : Any of you use Splenda?
Gobadgrs Fri, February 13th, 2004, 12:39 AM Ive had it in icecream and I think it tastes quite good....
I want to make some granola this weekend, but I dont want to use brown sugar.... can I just use splenda instead?
rboit Fri, February 13th, 2004, 10:37 AM I use it all the time. I like it because it is heat stable and doesn't seem to have any funny aftertaste unlike some of the other sweetners out there. We baked brwonies with it yesterday and they came out great!

I use it in my whey shakes to make them a bit sweeter like a milkshake!
andi Fri, February 13th, 2004, 11:49 AM If you are using it instead of sugar in a recipe, how much should you use? If it calls for a cup of sugar you don't use a cup of splenda do you?!
reve Fri, February 13th, 2004, 01:53 PM yes, 1 to 1 ratio, but you can buy like 5lb bags. (they wont be 5lbs, but it would be the same as 5lbs of sugar.

Yes, it's measured cup for cup with sugar. I was so happy to find the large box of splenda specifically for baking, cooking etc....

Have you made any type of cookies / brownie type stuff with Splenda?

Thanks, I saw that a while back & completely forgot about them!
I'll have to give those a try on my day off.

Shane Fri, February 13th, 2004, 07:59 PM My first run-in with Splenda was at a Ruby Tuesdays restaurant. The ingredients on the little packet said "Dextrose, Maltodextrin, Sucralose." I tried it and it tasted pretty much like sugar so I decided to buy a box for home use. When I got home I noticed that the ingredients on the box left out "Dextrose."
Anybody have any idea why dextrose is not included in the ingredients in this version?
