Smile Ketogenics Bread Mix

I was wondering if anyone has tried the Ketogenics (or any other brand) of bread mixes. I found the Atkins to have a funny taste that overrides anything else you put on the bread. Also, is there any place on the web that tells me where I can get this product offline

Hi, Blue Moon.

This whole forum is about LowCarb Products, about their nutrition information, how they affect low carb and reviews, too.

So if you spend a bit of time looking over the subject lies, and read threads with "bread" in them, you will get lots of answers to your questions, and learn about how other people view a lot of these LC products.

The Search feature is VERY helpful, too, you might want to experiment with it, see the little 'globe' in the upper right hand corner?

There's also 2 REVIEWS items at the very top of this forum (they're 'sticky' so they stay at the top, handy for everyone to access quickly). One of them is specifically for personal product reviews only, mostly Keto products (it started with them) but not just Keto products -- often other products are compared, for instance. The second one you may find helpful, it's a selection of product review websites -- "outside" this one -- that may help you find bread product reviews from all over.

As for finding "offline" sources of Ketogenics products, your very best bet and the first place to look -- is to talk to the source about stores that may carry their products. Try www.ketogenics.com and see if that gets you to them, that's what I would try. Often a manufacturer can tell you what stores carry their products.

PS: most LC "bread" products aren't really bread (which is legally and technically made out of high-carb starch, mostly wheat). They won't taste exactly the same as the bread and other starchy stuff that made us carb cravers and gained us weight and ill health in the first place. Usually it's the high-protein soy flour that leaves a different taste. Just FYI.

I tried the recipe in a mock cinnabon recipe and it was good. I have to admit that you can't completely taste the bread though because it has so much cinnamon. I have a couple of boxes I will be trying next week and will post the results.

hehe... That's actually why I was asking. I saw the mock cinnabon recipe, and wanted to try it. My mom had made her own version with the atkins bread mix, and the taste of the atkins white bread really made the cinnabons not worth the carbs Look forward to your report on the different types of breads

Made the honey wheat bread today - snowing outside and what could be better than kneading some bread and smelling it baking. I think the bread is terrific. My husband liked it but thought there was an aftertaste. I didn't have any aftertaste and will make this again. At 2 effective carbs and 5 carbs of fiber this is a good addition to my meal planning. BTW it has a very strong honey flavor - great for me but you should be aware of it if you don't like honey. Should be terrific with butter for breakfast or as a french toast.
