What are the advantages of using SPLENDA® Low Calorie Sweeteners?
SPLENDA® sweeteners can be used in place of sugar in virtually all types of foods resulting in lower sugar intake. For the person with restricted sugar intake, this means that foods typically avoided because of high sugar content may now be prepared with SPLENDA® sweeteners and enjoyed. SPLENDA® sweeteners can even be used to replace sugar in baking and cooking without losing its great sugar-like taste. SPLENDA® sweeteners do not have the bitter aftertaste commonly associated with some other low calorie sweeteners. Because of its excellent heat stability, SPLENDA® sweeteners, unlike some other low calorie sweeteners, can be added to recipes prior to baking, stewing or boiling, just like sugar. SPLENDA® sweeteners retain their sweetness in cooking and baking at high temperatures. Similarly, beverages sweetened with SPLENDA® retain their sweet sugar-like taste virtually indefinitely, even in hot weather.
