Viva Doria Allulose Sweetener, 5 lb (2.27 kg) | Zero Calorie Sugar Substitute | Great for Coffee, Tea, Cooking and Baking | Keto Friendly | Non-Erythritol, GMO Free, Gluten Free & Vegan Sweetener

This product is perfect for my glucose stability mission. I was missing that little bit of sugar in my coffee and this substitutes perfectly. I've also used in some homemade bread recipes and can replace stevia with it in my cocoa, coconut oil glycemic index friendly treats. It hasn't bothered my stomach, though I haven't used large quantities in any sitting. It tastes and feels like white refined sugar and doesn't have an aftertaste like stevia. It's price point is very reasonable, especially if you use it as a coffee sweetener or in small quantities. I haven't tried baking anything like cake or cookies, we're the expense might seem a little high due to the amount you would need to use to make a batch. 5lbs should last me several months.

Excellent product. Please note, it does not taste like sugar, so if that is what you are looking for you will have to buy a bag of sugar. For my diabetic comrades, I find the taste acceptable in coffee and tea among other things. Once you set your taste buds expectations it is easy to appreciate it. I did not detect an after-taste as I have with other non-sugar sweeteners. Also it does not cause blood sugar spikes. It actually seems to lower my blood sugars overall, not in a dramatic way, but perceptible. My daughter used it to make cranberry sauce and it was very good. Be mindful when using, because excessive amounts can cause bloating and upset stomach.

Perfect sweetener for those who aren't using sugar. You really get a break on the price when buying this size package. I've used this for everything - from baking to making hot fudge sauce and caramel sauce. It's just as versatile as sugar and doesn't have that aftertaste that other non-sugar sweeteners have. Allulose is made from vegetables and it has a glycemic index of zero, which means it won't raise your blood sugar levels. I find this to be a far superior sweetener from other products, such as erythritol. It isn't as sweet as sugar, so it isn't quite a 1 to 1 substitution if you are going for a very sweet taste.

I’ve been happy with this after trying many other low carb sweeteners. No aftertaste, not over-sweet, and works well in most recipes. I like the granulated form best for baking.

I use like sugar!. In my opinion it taste just sweet not like sugar. I do not notice an aftertaste sometimes artificial sweeteners give me a bit of headache and hurt my stomach but this doesn’t. I used it in barbecue sauce and a pound cake it was great! I also used it for my candy yams all around it is a good sweetener. A good substitute for sugar with cooking I’m unsure of any health benefits the bag was packaged well. I ordered it twice and it was the same both times

This is an affordable large bag of allulose. Allulose is a good sweetener, but it takes 3x as much by volume to equal a similar amount of sugar.

I ordered this item specifically for baking, in particular, as a substitute for sugar in pumpkin pies. I'm known for my Thanksgiving pumpkin pies. I baked my usual 5 pies for friends. As they're expected every Thanksgiving, I made sure to ask everyone if they had any issues with allulose. No one did, so I used this instead of sugar. To a one, everyone (as usual) loved the pies. No one said they tasted any different from the pies I made using sugar. There is one thing with allulose that needs mention. It's not as sweet as regular sugar, so to compensate, you should follow the guidelines you can find online. I consistently think dessert recipes call for too much sugar, making things overly sweet. If you feel the same way, my suggestion is to use a 1 to 1 allulose to sugar ratio. If you like really sweet desserts, then again, go with the suggestions you'll find online. I'll be using this sweetener for my Christmas cookies. But as I mentioned, I'll ask beforehand if any of the recipients have any issues with allulose. SEASONAL ADDENDUM - I used this for all my Christmas cookies. They came out beautifully and were their usual hit.

I have been cheerleading for allulose since I first tried it. PROS: + No cooling on the tongue + Zero aftertaste of any kind + No bitterness - no matter how much you use + Tastes EXACTLY like sugar except for being a lot less sweet on the tongue CONS: - for some people (like my brother) it can take some practice to learn how much to use. For me, I was able to figure out how much I like in my coffee vs in cereal or other dishes with this. Sometimes, if I want something sweeter, I will add in a little tagatose with this. - Another thing is that if using this in yeast breads, you have to use sugar (or tagatose) to bloom the yeast first, then you can substitute this for the rest if the sugar if needed. I personally use tagatose to bloom the yeast in baked good. - Some people can't use too much of this without stomach upset or gas. I have not had that problem. My brother gets a little gas from this if he overdoes it. I actually think he is using too much before his body has gotten used to it, but that is only my opinion! Back in the day, there was something called "Just Like Sugar" and I think it must have had an allulose base. This is the only sugar substitute I that I can tolerate. No lie, this stuff has changed my life because I have never been able to stick with any other sugar substitute. The thing I mostly use sweetener in on a regular basis is my coffee throughout the day, so using this has been awesome.
