Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Having been diagnosed a Type II Diabetic, real sugar is out of the question for me anymore; so, the hunt began. And, like most other Diabetics, I've tried 'em all... every sugar substitute on the market.
DiabetiSweet is THE ONE. It Tastes just like sugar. Leaves No Aftertaste, just like sugar. Cooks and Bakes, just like sugar. And Measures spoon-for-spoon, cup-for-cup, just like sugar.
I use it, sparingly, in my coffee and tea, and on my cereal.
I use it to make cookies, candy, and ice cream.
I use it to make cake, cobblers, pies, and coffeecake.
I use it to make rice pudding, jello, chocolate mousse, and crème brulee (baked custard with the broiled, or torched, sugar on top... substituting DiabetiSweet of course).
I've put it in my food processor, pulsing it a few times, to get it more finely grained like Superfine Sugar (what is commonly called 'Baker's Sugar').
I use it for all the things we know and love that are designated: Sinfully Sweet. And you would not know you're eating something sugar-free.
I gave DiabetiSweet FOUR (4) STARS for the simple reason that, if you eat too much of it, you WILL get gas; and I mean hard, rumbling, can't-hold-it-in-at-all gas. Get ready to be hugely embarrassed if you're in public.
If you go over the gas limit, you'll then find yourself living in the bathroom for the next 3 hours. Imodium becomes your new best friend.
Unfortunately, this is the downside of DiabetiSweet. It just runs right thru you. So, you have to play with it to see what your limits are.
In my particular case, it goes like this: 2 small scoops of ice cream, I'm fine. 3 scoops, I've got gas. 4 scoops and I've become one with my toilet, *lol*
I will not give up my DiabetiSweet because of the possibility of these nuisances. I've just learned what my body can handle, and what it can't.
Which, if looked at from another perspective, is a good thing; for no one has any business eating 4 scoops of ice cream, a 1/2 dozen cookies, or more than 1 slice of cake, cobbler, or pie.
Just like real sugar's harmful effects (obesity, hypo-hyperglycemia, empty calories, etc etc), DiabetiSweet should be used very judiciously. It is, after all, a 'treat' not a 'staple'.
Enjoy.
