Default New Product DiabetiSweet Sugar Substitute?

Hello All

I am on the Atkins and I have used splenda and other sweetners and when cooking they lose there sweetness which I am sure you guys are all aware, but my question is can I have this DiabetiSweet Sugar Substitute or is it forbidden. It is aspartame free and says it is measure for measure with sugar. It has isomalt and acesulfame K. Also does not contain sucrose, fructose, dextrose, maltodextrin, sodium, or saccharin. So if anyone has had any experience with this please advise.

Thanks

Miss Rock

I use it quite often. I find that for baking, it helps texture-wise and for sprinkling of things, it's granulated texture is just like sugar. I find I have a lot LESS problems with it than other sweeteners, actually.

You may want to go to the low-carb products threads or even the kitchen threads and run a search. I'm sure you'll find a lot of info about it.
