Splenda No Calorie Sweetener can be used virtually anywhere sugar is used. It can also be used in cooking and baking in a variety of recipes. Like many no and low calorie sweeteners, each serving of Splenda No Calorie Sweetener contains a very small amount of common food ingredients, e.g., dextrose and/or maltodextrin, for volume. Because the amount of these ingredients is so small, Splenda No Calorie Sweetener still has an insignificant calorie value per serving and meets FDA's standards for "no calorie" sweeteners. How Is Splenda Brand Sweetener Made? Splenda is the brand name for the ingredient sucralose. It is made through a patented, multi-step process that starts with sugar and converts it to a no calorie, non-carbohydrate sweetener. | | | Features: | |
• Individual portions of SPLENDA in familiar yellow packets-each packet is equivalent to two teaspoons of sugar
• Pack of 700-count box
• Sucralose based artificial sweetener, each packet has less than 1 gram of carbohydrate and less than 5 calories
• Sweeten beverages and sprinkle on cereal, fresh fruit, and more
• Life is sweet--and SPLENDA sweetener products make it even sweeter, by giving you a delicious alternative to sugar

No calorie sweetener tastes like sugar. Best price around for this, much better then equal or any of the others.

1400 Calories of Tasty Zero Calorie Artificial SweetenerFeb 07, 2010
By Mr. Roy B. Mccammon Splenda No Calorie Sweetener, Granulated, in packets.
I like the taste, after taste and texture of this product. I love sweets, but I am working on losing weight. I exercise every day, but that is not enough. I had been adding a lot of granulated Splenda (and the granulated generic sucralose sweetener) to my diet drinks, fruit, juice and almost everything. It says zero calories, so a big time sugar junkie like me should be able to eat just as much or more than the amount of sugar that I would have eaten and still lose weight. But it was no calories, so I used even more. Suddenly my whole world was sweet.
But I was gaining weight and it didn't add up. I looked up sucralose and went to the Splenda web site. There it explained that legally, if a serving has less than 5 calories then they are entitled to call it zero calories. But the vendor decides how much is in a serving. If you make the serving size small enough, any food can be labeled zero calorie (that's an industry serving regulation if I ever heard of one). Splenda says the serving size is 1 teaspoon and as long as it has less than 5 calories they can call it zero calories. Sucralose by itself really does have nearly zero calories in any amount I would use. But I was still gaining weight.
So I looked again. The numbers just were not adding up. What else is in there? It sure isn't pure sucralose or there would be a lot less product in the bag. Well, the filler is malto dextrin. This is a safe well known sugar that has been in food products for decades. It has calories, but not as much as table sugar. It's about 1/8 of the calories of regular table sugar. That is a significant reduction. But it is not zero. If you consume this entire box you will consume about 1400 calories.

Terrible ConditionSep 22, 2010
By Disgruntled Splenda Buyer This box of Splenda individual packets was in terrible condition. All the packets appear to have been exposed to excessive moisture. The Splenda inside is all caked and lumpy. It is impossible to use any of the packets. Cut them any which way and more than half the Splenda remains inside. A complete waste of good money. I would give zero stars if I knew how.

A really sweet deal!Oct 29, 2010
By Richard George
"texas lone star"
Buying the 700 count box of healthy Splenda on Amazon sure beats buying the smaller boxes at your local grocery store or supermarket.
If you'd rather just see a smaller 100 count box on your shelf, then just transfer some of the Splenda packets from this giant box to the smaller box!
Seriously, the savings are considerable, and the product is of the highest quality.
Splenda was recommended in my diabetic education classes. It tastes like sugar and is made from sugar. Sucralose sure beats those other artificial sweeteners in the pink and blue packets.
Do your health a favor and try Splenda!

DisappointedJul 19, 2010
By teala silverre

I have found many of the packages to be off-cut. This means many are already empty, or worse emptying themselves all over the counter and me. I realize this is typically done by machine, but it still does not make the product better. Where is the quality control?
