I bought an ounce of the pure sucralose to try and I like it a lot.
One teaspoon of the powder is equal in sweetness to about 3 cups of sugar.
I am keeping track of how much I use so I'll be able to compare the cost with that of Splenda.
I mixed a teaspoon of the sucralose with 1-1/2 cups of water and use that to sweeten my coffee. That way one teaspoon of the water equals two teaspoons of sugar (no, my sweet tooth has not disappeared :wink
I have also made a couple of almond pound cakes, replacing the cup of Splenda it called for with 3/8 teaspoon of the sucralose; the last time I think I didn't measure as carefully because it was a little too sweet.
This is great stuff! And when you eliminate the carb count of Splenda (24 per cup), that just makes recipes that are already low carb even lower. I love it!
