DiabetiSweet Sugar Substitute, Original, 16-Ounce Boxes (Pack of 3)

I like Diabetisweet for many reasons.First of all, it's not the same as the others, it's not aspartame, or saccharine or sucrolose, so I can have additional options for sweetening.Another thing I discovered by mistake is that Diabetisweet browns better than other sweeteners. Because it has some calories/sugar it can actually turn brown and become crunchy. I baked a cheesecake and while we prefer they not brown I was surprised to see it did. I use it to make faux cinnabuns by melting butter in a skillet, then sprinkling a Tablespoon of Diabetisweet and a layer of cinnamon powder, and waiting till it bubbles then I place some bread down in the pan and swirl it about wiping up the syrup onto the surface and let it cool. it tastes like the top of cinnamon buns.It has a nice "sugar granule" texture to it for when you want that. I use it as part of a sweetener blend of 1/3 splenda, and 2T each Diabetisweet, Xylitol and Erythritol to equal one cup of sugar.Lastly, the price for this product beats the walmart price to death with a big stick. I was paying almost $10 per box and often had to special order it cause it is not a regular shelf item. Now I have found a great price and with the subscription service I will never run out again unless I want to.ETA March 10, 2011I've found It also makes a good faux caramel for caramel popcorn. if you take a quarter cup of it and a couple capfuls of caramel Sugar Free syrup for flavor, and heat it in a small non-stick skillet/sauce pan, till it bubbles and turns tan, then add a tablespoon of butter and stir it in, then drizzle it over a serving (one personal sized bag) of cooked popcorn, it's lighter in flavor but makes a great lower sugar caramel corn treat. It could be a great treat for someone who doesn't want to diet but still wants less sugar and it's fun and easy.ETA January 16, 2012While my previous review still stand, I have noted that the price of this subscribe and ship item has been climbing rapidly. Fairly soon it will not be a good of a deal as other sellers except for the free shipping. Right now it is only 30-40 cheaper per box than buying it singly.

No aftertaste, mixes perfectly, just a little less sweet than real sugar but easy to compensate for. I made Crème Brulee with this and it even caramelized like sugar, not a deep rich brown color but still excellent. I will buy lots more for baking.Ingredients:8 large Egg yolks1/3 cup Diabetisweet sugar2 cups Heavy creamscrape the seeds of 1/2 vanilla bean1/2 teaspoon of Almond Extract (optional)1/4 cup Diabetisweet sugar (for the caramelized tops)Preparation:Preheat oven to 300F. In a large bowl, whisk together egg yolks and sugar until the sugar has dissolved and the mixture is thick and pale yellow. Add cream and vanilla, Almond Extract and continue to whisk until well blended. Strain into a large bowl, skimming off any foam or bubbles.Divide mixture among 6 ramekins or custard cups. Place in a water bath and bake until set around the edges, but still loose in the center, about 50 to 60 minutes. Remove from oven and leave in the water bath until cooled. Remove cups from water bath and chill for at least 2 hours, or up to 2 days. When ready to serve, sprinkle about 2 teaspoons of sugar over each custard. For best results, use a small, hand-held torch to melt sugar. If you don't have a torch, place under the broiler until sugar melts. Re-chill custards for a few minutes before serving.

I don't know why the manufacture stopped making this product. I am Type 2 Diabetic and it is excellent in that itdid not raise my sugar levels and it didn't have that after taste that so many artificial sugars have. I use to go toPublic's Grocery Store or Walgreens Pharmacy and buy up all they had. Now that means about 6-10 boxes becausethere was never ever more than that at one time. I would tell management that I had bought all of them, please ordermore. Walgreens told me that there wasn't enough of a demand for the product so they just stopped ordering it.I found it on-line in the oddest places thinking why would it be here or there....I felt it was risky...don't know why,but I stopped hunting for it. Great Product!

Love, Love, Love this product!! My mother-in-law is allergic to real sugar. This has a fantastic taste, and you only need to use a little bit. You can cook with it and it is like using real sugar with not aftertaste. I WOULD HIGHLY recommend this product.They use to make a brown sugar substitute and I can't find it anymore but it was AMAZING as well!!!! I would give it 50 stars if I could.

My mom has been asking about this product since she relocated back to GA. She originally found this product in TN. Since then she has not been able to find it anywhere in our local neighborhood, so I decided to surprise her by purchasing it online. She was elated when the package came in the mail. I must say I have tried this product myself although, I am not diabetic and it tastes good. There is no after taste, which is usually the number complain of these sugar substitute products.It easily integrates in hot and cold, food and drinks. I would recommend this product for diabetics and those that prefer sugar substitutes with no after taste.

Husband is a diabetic...but he loves his sugar on his cereal and in smoothies. he likes cookies ect ect...we tried every fake sugar there is...they all had aftertastes and were hard to swallow...But this Diabetisweet measures like sugar, tastes like sugar, and bakes like sugar. He doesn't go without his sweets and it doesn't effect his blood sugar at all..how great is that?..This also doesn't have any of those nasty chemicals that kill you!! Try it , you'll love it!!
