Finally! A healthy alternative!
Like a lot of people out there, I've had to cut out all the sugar, grains and starches. The problem is, I love to bake! I also love sweets! Believe me, it hasn't been easy!!! I was constantly looking for alternatives which always lead me to a dead end. So after researching Swerve, I decided to give it a try.......I've used it in cookies, cakes, frostings, put it in my coffee and my smoothies and I have to say, I'm impressed! It doesn't effect your blood sugar so I don't find my heart rate bumped up after using it, works just as good as sugar. I know we all have different taste buds but I didn't experience any bitter after taste. I will say it is very powdery when baking with it, so expect a cloud of dust when mixing! I've noticed when using the powdered sugar in frostings, it runs a lot sweeter than normal powdered sugar, so you will need to adjust accordingly to your individual taste. Very happy with this product and hope they will offer it in larger packages with a discount :)
