I am looking for some sodas in AZ or to order online. I have found 4 flavors from Diet Rite. I read in a blog about Waist Watchers but it’s only sold back east and can not be ordered online. Do you know where I can find any other sodas that are calorie, caffeine & carb free made with Splenda and not aspartame or sacharrine?

I was wondering if it were possible to make "cheaters" palmiers, using Splenda instead of sugar between the layers of rolled store bought puff pastry. I heard it does not caramelize in brulees– is caramelization necessary here? Or can i simply only coat the outer layer with real sugar?

Note: i’m a fan of the "harder" palmiers. i don’t like mine too airy. flaky, yes, but not fall apart. can this be achieved with leaving them in the oven off overnight?

I know that Splenda is a sugar substitute, how bad is it for you in small/moderate amounts?

Diet Coke, Diet Pepsi, Pepsi Max, Splenda, Sweet ‘n’ Low, and Equal.

I know they are bad for you, but why?

Which one is the worst for you?

Which one is the best for you?

How do I thicken splenda liquid?
I am trying to make a thick liquid out of splenda. Can you please let me know if I can use thick-it or something else to make splenda liquid thick? I am making indian sweets and many sweets are made out of thick sugar syrup. So, I want to make a thick splenda syrup. Can I use unflavored gelatin to thicken?

Do you think is safe for a child to be introduce to equal,sweet n low ,splenda and others of the many artificial sweeteners found today in the market ….even if they are healthy and dont need them.
for bB ..I just saw a splenda commercial that encourages parents to share it on drinks and food (cooking)with their children….I couldnt believe it!
I even use that stuff .. I only use some regular sugar

I wanted to make my aunt cupcakes for her birthday buy she is diabetic so I was gonna use Splenda but my dad said it wouldn’t work. Would it?

a) Regular granulated sugar.
b) Sweet-n-Low
c) Splenda
d) Equal
e) Other

I choose "a". I hate artificial sweeteners.

I was curious if there ARE really calories in Splenda.

As I understand, foods that claim no calories per serving are allowed to say that IF the actual calorie count is < or = 5 calories per serving.

I use Splenda a lot; as an example, I used about 1/3 cup on some frozen cherries, tonight.

I am trying to lose weight, but don’t want to actually sabotage my efforts, so I appreciate you taking the time to answer this question.

Thank you!

I am making chocolate peanut butter fudge, for some members of my family, & one of them is diabetic, so i thought i would try to make a batch, using splenda, but don’t know if it is going to turn out ok, any help would be appreciated.

Hi all! I wondered how many other folks feel ill from sugar substitutes? I guess I shouldn’t call all of them "artificial sweeteners", since some are more natural than others. Anyway, I’m referring to stuff like Sweet N Low (saccharin), NutraSweet (aspartame), and Splenda (sucralose).

I’m not sure if it’s the actual substitutes, or some ingredient added to them during processing, but none agree with me. My symptoms vary, depending on the substitute, but I generally get one or more of the following: an unpleasant stomach ache, an overall "heavy" feeling, diarrhea, or large amounts of intestinal gas!!

I dislike the hyper-sweet taste and weird aftertaste of all sugar substitutes anyway, so it’ s no great loss that I have to avoid them. *chuckle*

At any rate, do you have any of these symptoms? Or perhaps other symptoms altogether? (I know of a few folks who get migraine headaches from sugar substitutes! UGH!)
Just for the record, I’ve never been an eater/drinker of products w/ sugar substitutes. I just tried each sub, to see what it was like, and had bad physical experiences with each. (My digestive system is sensitive/weird anyway, LOL) But that’s okay, since I don’t like the taste of the substitutes, and I have no need to diet either.

Even if I was dieting, I’d never make these subs a part of it — there are much better ways to make healthy nutritional and eating changes for weight loss! Unfortunately, it seems that the majority of folks I see who drink diet soda all the time are quite overweight. But I digress. Back to the answers….

just wondering when i saw a splenda-sweetened lollipop…cuz if the answer is no i’ll be so happy!!!
plaque comes from sugar in foods. If splenda has no sugar, how can it cause plaque?

I know there are chemicals in it, but it can’t make you gain weight can it? I use a lot of Splenda in my coffee because I like it really sweet, and if I used sugar it would add a lot of calories, I drink about 5 cups a day the least! I only use a little bit of super skim milk too, that adds some calories but I like it almost black.

I want to cut out sugar and cream and use skim milk and splenda but when I use skim milk in my coffee it doesn’t make it light colored or creamy.
