Teaspoon to teaspoon with sugar

I’ve basically tried it every sugar substitute product out on the market and purchases, because it said it’s partially derived from actual sugarcane which affects its flavor. In a good way.I will absolutely concur that it does have a much more natural sugar flavor. Unfortunately, with all artificial sweeteners, they all have that twang that is left is a undesirable flavor in your mouth, but this one has the least of anyone I have ever triedIronically, it says it’s a one to one replacement for sugar and I found that I was using 1/2 to achieve the same flavor and sweetness, which since this is an expensive product it allows it to stretch much further.

This is a great product. It gives sugar-free desserts the taste and texture of those made with sugar. It's especially great for streusel toppings. It does all this without impacting my glucose levels.The only problem is that, like other no-glycemic sweeteners, it is very expensive. For this reason, I use the less expensive sweeteners when texture is not an issue.

I've tried Stevia, Erythritol, Allulose, and Monk Fruit. I'd like to break them all down for those who are wondering where I would categorize Purecane this in the world of artificial sweeteners:Stevia: Wonderful sweetener, extracted from a leaf in the mint family. Extremely sweet, and plagued with bitterness at the end. It has a unique flavor profile that is not comparable to sugar in any way.Erythritol: An alcohol, produced by fermenting sugar. Fairly close to the flavor of sugar, and nearly as sweet - but there is a strong aftertaste and the menthol sensation is off-putting to many people. This is probably the most widely used sweeteners, and tends to do well mixed in with others, such as Stevia and Monkfruit, to mask the cooling aftertaste.Monk fruit: Not commonly used in the pure form. Similar to Stevia in that it is extracted from a plant (Monk Fruit). It is not quite as sweet, but does have a similar flavor profile to Stevia. I have poor tolerance to Monk Fruit, so I can't comment much about it, but you'll often see the Lakanto brand, which is actually a blend of Stevia and Erythritol. It is a favorite among the sugar free community.Allulose: The closest flavor to sugar, as it is one. A rare sugar that the human body does not process. Unfortunately, this is the same reason it's not completely well tolerated and should be mixed with any of the above sweeteners due to GI discomfort. It is also not a 1:1 with regular sugar, quite a bit less sweet. When used abundantly, it also can have an aftertaste. However, this is a favorite for a lot of bakers due to its flavor profile and that it reacts like normal sugar would in terms of crystallization.Purecane: This is an Erythritol. The difference between this and normal Erythritol is how it is fermented, and the fermentation process they use results in a more stevia-like flavor. There is also no cooling menthol sensation. (Pro-Tip: I recommend dialing back on sweetener amounts in any recipe you do, no matter what one you use). The flavor profile is not all that close to sugar, but is pleasantly somewhere in between Stevia and Erythritol. It has a bit of extra sweetness that reminds me of Stevia, but it doesn't have a bitter burn to it.The Good: So far, I do love the flavor. It bakes rather nicely, and dissolves pretty well in liquid. It is still a sugar alcohol, so it will not caramelize like Allulose. I would say the 1:1 ratio can be followed, if not even backed off on a little bit as it has that Rebaudioside intensity that some might find is a bit too sweet. It is very tolerable on the GI side of things, which is a nice improvement over my old favorite, Allulose.The Bad: Cost, obviously, mainly that it cannot be bought in bulk (yet). However, this is probably due to the fact that it has just been released. The other con I have is that the granules are quite coarse, and so I often wind up putting it in the food processor for some recipes.EDIT: It now comes in a larger option.TL;DR: So far, one of my most used artificial sweeteners. I'll likely be using this with a mix of allulose.

I read the good reviews but I was still leery because I had never found a sugar substitute that tasted good with no aftertaste and did not cause Me to rush to the bathroom.We are happy so far with this.My Husband is a diabetic and We both are into loosing weight so very excited to give this a try in baking,etc.I bought some fresh peaches that were a bit tart so this sugar came just in time,I cut up four large peaches and sprinkled a little at a time tasting and sprinkling,I ended up useing about 3 teaspoons the covered and put into the fridge.My Husband had some for breakfast this morning and said they taste like good fresh sweet peaches,no aftertaste at all.

It does not taste like actual sugar but on the same note it doesn't taste far off of actual sugar. I wish it was in a bigger quantity than the ones that are available. But I absolutely love this product so far.It tastes similar to sugar but not quite sugar. I do like the sugar substitute alternative and I like that there is no strange aftertaste. The packets are nice to have but I do wish that there were more in the box and with the bag of sugar I wish it came and bigger options as when I bake I do need a giant bag of sugar but again that is just me. It does not seem to alter any of my baked goods and does not change my cooking times which is amazing. So far everyone loves this product and it is child approved because she has no idea that's not actual sugar!

I've used Purecane for 2 years and loved it. The last bag was different. Now the product clumps in the sugar bowl and becomes quite hard. I have tried softening in the microwave which helps. However, after doing this a few times, I feel that the product hardens even more! This is new. For 2 years it has remained spoonable and clump free so something has changed. I live in the same house with the same A/C units. It has to be the product. So now I will have to keep it in a ziplock bag instead of my sugar bowl. Very inconvenient for your morning coffee.

A terrific product, virtually impossible to detect any difference between sugar and this product, works beautifully in cooking, using it to sprinkle in fruits, etc., completely pleased. The only caveat is the price
