Question

I haven’t tried any desserts that use artificial sweeteners before. My concern is a chemically taste. I don’t want to make a dessert and find out I don’t care for the taste/aftertaste. Is there an artificial sweetener that someone can recommend uses that doesn’t alter the flavor? Thanks!  

Answer 1

Stevia is my favorite.  

Answer 2

Yes, Stevia is great.

@annmarieannnora I find Stevia to have a weird aftertaste.  

Answer 3

Truvia is good you use less than what the recipe calls for it will tell you the measurements on the bag.  

Answer 4

I don’t like any of the sweeteners - even the natural ones like Stevia taste nasty to me. I did find one called Sukrin Gold that WW influencer recommended. It’s a brown sugar and really, really good. I got it on Amazon.  

Answer 5

Truvia Baking Blend - superb taste

Answer 6

Monkfruit is the BEST!  

Answer 7

Monkfruit sweetener is pretty good. I haven't noticed an aftertaste to it.  

Answer 8

Does Monkfruit have calories per teaspoon? If so it is not a free sweetener I assume. Checking, have never purchased it.  

Answer 9

I just tried Monkfruit yesterday and it was good - no aftertaste.  

Answer 10

Stevia is a plant that tastes sweet.

I’ve used a few different ones and I have no problem with taste. funny thing tho I can’t stand the taste of diet sodas. just watch the amount, to much and then it starts to have an funky taste

Answer 14

I like monkfruit but always use less than the recipe calls for.  

Answer 15

Mix two different to get the chemical taste out. Itll keep people guessing.

Truvia Brown sugar blend. 1 point per teaspoon. Half Truvvia and half real brown sugar. great.

Answer 18

Today I'm going to make brownies. box mix, plain so chips or syrups and a can of blk beans! I've made them years ago but going to try again.  

Answer 19

I only use honey and count the points. I am lucky as l love all fruit, porridge , cookie recipes unsweetened.  

Answer 20

Monk fruit tastes great in baking. Can’t tell the difference except I don’t have cravings afterwards. Good in hot choc or tea.  

Answer 21

Thanks everyone! Guess it’s all in the person. Just wish I could get samples of them all to try before I purchase anything in bulk

Answer 22

Monk Fruit my family has no idea I don't use sugar.  

Answer 23

I like raw stevia, no sweet cravings afterward. Some like the taste others do not. I do not use a lot, one packet, even half a packet is enough for me. I sprinkle on after baking cookies or whatever.  

Answer 24

Stevia in the raw.  

Answer 25

I only use Monk fruit or xylitol. They are not artificial. And xylitol is good for you. Taste just like sugar

Answer 26

I learned and used recipes from WW app to make deserts by cutting down sugar instead of sugar substitutes. It’s still have points but taste will be much more satisfying.
