SPLENDA®, Granulated and pie



 
What form of SPLENDAŽ No Calorie Sweetener is easiest to use for cooking and baking?
Both the Granulated and packet forms of SPLENDAŽ No Calorie Sweetener can be used in cooking and baking. However, SPLENDAŽ No Calorie Sweetener, Granulated measures and pours just like sugar, so it is easy to use:

1 cup of SPLENDAŽ Granulated is equal in sweetness to 1 cup of sugar. SPLENDAŽ No Calorie Sweetener can also be purchased in packets to sweeten coffee or tea or to sprinkle on cereal or fruit.



If a recipe also includes other sweeteners, such as brown sugar, corn syrup, molasses, maple syrup or others, can you substitute SPLENDAŽ No Calorie Sweetener, Granulated for all of the sweeteners?
Sweeteners do more than just provide a sweet taste. Some sweeteners also lend color, texture, or flavor and prevent moisture loss. SPLENDAŽ Granulated works best in recipes where sugar mainly plays a sweetening role, such as fruit fillings, cheesecakes, custards, sauces, and marinades. In these recipes, you can feel comfortable substituting SPLENDAŽ Granulated for other sweeteners.

In some recipes, such as cakes, cookies, and muffins, you can make a few changes in the recipe to have great results. Find out more in Cooking and Baking Tips.

Or you can use new SPLENDAŽ Sugar Blend, which delivers the sweetness, volume and moistness you expect in your baked goods, but allows you to use half of the sugar you would ordinarily use. When making your favorite recipes, a half-cup of SPLENDAŽ Sugar Blend replaces a full-cup of pure sugar, with a 50% reduction in sugars and carbohydrates from sugar.

SPLENDA® Brown Sugar Blend, a blend of brown sugar and SPLENDA® Brand Sweetener can be used in sprinkling, cooking and baking.



Can SPLENDAŽ No Calorie Sweetener be used in microwave cooking?
Yes. SPLENDAŽ No Calorie Sweetener retains its sweet taste in the wide variety of temperatures and cooking times used in microwave cooking.



Can SPLENDAŽ No Calorie Sweetener be used in frozen desserts?

Yes. SPLENDAŽ No Calorie Sweetener works well in frozen desserts, particularly fruit sorbet. However, the texture may not be as creamy as you may be used to. SPLENDAŽ No Calorie Sweetener will freeze the same as sugar in an ice cream.



Can SPLENDAŽ No Calorie Sweetener be used in high altitude baking?

Yes, it can be used in high altitude baking. Keep in mind that higher altitudes (3000 feet and above) usually necessitate minor changes when baking. High altitude baking guidelines generally suggest less sugar and leavening and more liquid.
