Organic Monk Fruit Extract Powder, Pure Non-GMO Sweetener 4oz

Just what the name says . No extra artificial sweeteners to add volume or decrease costs that are bad for you anyway . By far the taste beats every other alternative sweetener , because it is concentrated it takes very little to sweeten whatever you want so the package lasts forever, and especially compared to everything else on the market . And it's not bad for you which should be of primary concern to anyone using sugar substitutes. Use this and forget the rest !

My favorite monkfruit product so far. I have tried two different liquid brands and have settled on this one for both flavoring drinks and baking. If you try baking with it, be aware that the sweetness seems to multiply with quantity. What I mean by that is, if a recipe calls for a cup of cane sugar (insert mathematical conversions, eg 6 tsp = 1 C), you do not simply add six teaspoons of this powder. I'm sure it has to do with volume: sugar granules are less tightly packed than is this fine powder, so you need fewer teaspoons to equal a cup of cane sugar. I recommend adding one teaspoon at a time and tasting your batter in between each one. BE AWARE: this is not anything like cane sugar. This is very much like the first time you try any alternative milk after an entire life of whole cow milk: it's gonna be different! If you buy this sweetener, in any brand and in any form, and you anticipate the same cane sugar flavor, you will be sorely disappointed. It is sweet, but not glucose or fructose kinda sweet. This is a different animal altogether, and that is why I use it: my body cannot process those sugars anymore, but i love something sweet now and again. After an adjustment to this new flavor, I make hot chocolate with it every day, and I really love it. How lucky, to be able to have a sweet treat that doesn't send my blood sugar into a wild ride! I am very, very grateful that this fruit exists. I really hope it doesn't turn out that using it causes cancer or something. That's a joke! I hope. :)

I started using this powder while making homemade oatmeal cookies because I wanted something with a lighter sweetness than regular sugar. It worked surprisingly well and blended easily into the recipe without changing the texture of the cookies. The sweetness tasted smooth and balanced instead of overly strong. I also like that it doesn't leave a strange aftertaste, which has happened with other sweeteners I've tried before. The oatmeal, cinnamon, and vanilla flavors still come through naturally, and the cookies feel a little lighter overall. Even my family didn't notice much difference besides the sweetness being more controlled. It's simple, easy to use, and fits nicely into everyday cooking without much effort.

I love jack fruit and was very excited to try the TEAKi hut monk fruit extract. The flavor isn't bad, it's actually quite tasty. I enjoyed it but my husband wasn't so sure. I am more of the health nut in our family. I added this to our smoothies one day and he could tell something was different. He said it left a chalky taste in his mouth. I hadn't noticed that until he mentioned it. So yes it does leave a little bit of a chalky taste but personally I like that- lol I know I am weird. I will try making some brownies with it and see if he can tell I added it 🤫 This monk fruit has zero calories, zero side effects, and is all natural, sounds perfect to me!

Item arrived with a deep cut in the product package. No holes or damage to the shipping bag. There was very expensive monk fruit powder all over the inside of the Amazon bag. Opening it was an experience. Super fine monk fruit powder in my face, up my nose, and all over my freshly cleaned countertop and floor. Have you ever cleaned up monk fruit powder while fending off two huskies? It's super sticky and so fine it dusts everything nearby with a fine coat. So I get to wipe down baseboards and cabinet doors before the huskies discover they are tasty. Yayyy. I contacted Amazon and the AI agent gave me a refund. Whoopee. Get your AI behind over here and clean my kitchen, AI robot, and then I might be happy. So nice to talk to a robot instead of a real person. (NOT). I'm reconsidering this product if the packaging is that easy to cut. Almost $25 for 4 ounces means you can't afford a spill like this.

So I was pleasantly surprised by this product. It was sweet and the aftertaste was actually slightly reminiscent of brown sugar. Of course I do think the cost is quite high but given that it's 100% monk fruit and not mixed with any other sweetener I think it's a fair enough deal given that you truly only need a little bit of it and it goes a long way. Given that it is not mixed with other sweeteners it means that it clumps up a little when putting it in my coffee but that's easily solved by using the back of a spoon to kind of break it apart. Also I have noticed that if you let the coffee (that's what I used it for primarily so far, not sure about other things) sit a little bit, it actually gets sweeter with time. So don't jump the gun and put too much thinking it's not sweet enough, let it sit a bit and it will naturally get sweeter. Maybe it just takes some time to fully mix in but it isn't a big deal. All in all I am pleased with the product.

First time trying monkfruit. Bought it because an influencer uses it and made it seem great. Not super impressed. Its overpriced, and not as sweet as stevia. Its sticky and the packaging makes it messy to work with. A tiny scoop that you dig out of the bag, getting everything in its path coated in fine powder and tacky feeling. I wanted to love this since the influencer is in amazing shape and is a nutritional counselor, but I think I will find another way to save on calories. Maple syrup is still my sweetener of choice with stevia backup. Maybe its just not for me. I wish I had tried it first.

Great product
