Giant Eagle
No Calorie Sweetener (Made with Sucralose)
What it is
It is made using sucralose, an artificial sweetener derived from sugar. The granules are formulated to dissolve easily, mimicking the texture and behavior of granulated sugar in many applications. The packaging is designed for convenient pouring and storage in a kitchen pantry.
How people cook with it
This sweetener is a versatile ingredient for sweetening beverages and baked goods. It offers a way to enjoy sweet flavors while avoiding sugar.
- Sweetening coffee
- Sweetening tea
- Baking cakes
- Making cookies
This sweetener can be used in place of granulated sugar in many recipes and beverages. Measure it according to taste preference or recipe instructions, as its sweetness intensity may differ from sugar. It dissolves readily in hot and cold liquids, making it suitable for drinks like coffee, tea, and iced beverages. When baking, it can be incorporated into batters and doughs. For best results, stir thoroughly to ensure even distribution throughout the mixture. Its stability under heat makes it a good option for baking and cooking applications where sugar is typically used.
How it differs from similar foods
It also does not caramelize or brown in the same way sugar does when heated, which can affect the appearance of baked goods. Its sweetness profile is also generally more potent than sugar, meaning less is needed to achieve the desired level of sweetness.
How to keep the rest
To maintain its quality, keep the container tightly closed in a cool, dry place. Avoid exposure to moisture, which can cause clumping. Store it away from direct sunlight and heat. Proper storage ensures the sweetener remains free-flowing and retains its intended sweetness for future use.
