This sweetener can be used in place of granulated sugar in many common kitchen tasks. It dissolves readily in both hot and cold liquids, making it convenient for drinks like tea and coffee. When baking, it can be incorporated into batters and doughs. Its sweetness intensity may differ from sugar, so it is often recommended to start with a smaller amount and adjust to taste. It is important to note that it may not provide the same bulk or browning properties as sugar in baked goods.

How to keep the rest
To maintain its quality, store this sweetener in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Ensure the container is tightly sealed after each use to prevent moisture absorption and clumping. Proper storage will help preserve its texture and sweetness.
