Can I use this in my coffee as a substitute to half and half, or would it taste weird unless mixed with other ingredients in baking?

This cream is extremely thick! It will NOT pour out of the box like you may be thinking. It has a great mild flavor though.

I shake up the carton, then I pour it into my coffee. I don't notice the taste of coconut and I cannot use dairy products. So it is perfect. You can store it in a glass container in the refrigerator and it will become creamy and fluffy and works well in coffee. I leave the carton out on the counter for 3 days with no problem sometimes. The big problem is inconsistent quality. It depends who the seller is. Dana's Healthy Home is best and you get add-on or prime shipping for a larger order.

This is a 'block' of pure coconut cream, would imagine you could break off a piece and melt in hot coffee, should be delicious! I, of course, love anything coconut but have not tried this in my coffee but do use the coconut oil in my coffee. Hope you enjoy!

Both my boyfriend and I use it as a coffee creamer. It does have a coconut flavor, but we really like it. I also use it in my Chai teas and I love the flavor. I use almond milk or oat milk for my baking...

I really haven't tried to bake with it. I've used it in baked desserts, (crumbles and crisps, in the fruit) but not in cakes or cookies. I would contact the manufacturer about this as sugar has an active part in the chemistry of baking cakes and cookies and you might have to do a 1/2 and 1/2 substitution (1/2 sugar, 1/2 stevita). I know that Splenda has a 1/2 Splenda & 1/2 sugar mixture they say works in baking, so the 1/2 & 1/2 mixture of stevita might work too. Sorry I can't be more helpful.

This will give you a peppermint mocha taste but it may turn the coffee an odd color. This does not have any cream in it so it will not taste the same as a creamer based product. Other options for substitutions would be a regular creamer (half & half or whatever you normally use) plus this syrup. You could also try creamer, peppermint syrup (it's clear) plus some chocolate sauce (syrups and sauces are available sugar free).

I don't know I always drink hot coffee. What I do is use half a packet with another blend of coffee. I believe if you use it as Ice coffee it will taste good with some creamer and sugar.

I used a 1 to 1 or 1 to 2 part powder to H2o ratio. Depends on what you are using it for. It is not fond of mixing in hot water - I had bought it to use as coffee creamer. It would clump in hot coffee. I got to where I would put a spoon of powder and water in the mug, mix it until it was dissolved, then add coffee.

I used a regular cake mix. no problem. baking time will take some adjustment.

I've never baked with it. If you try, remember that it is very sweet by volume. It is not bulked up with some carrier power like Truvia is with erythritol, a sugar alcohol.The tiny spoon shipped inside is the amount needed to sweeten a cup of coffee. So you'd have to projct from that if you were to experiment

Yes, however I make it in a French press. This coffee is bold so you might have to try out a couple of times in a regular coffee maker before knowing how much to use.depending on your taste.

I suggest you weaken the butter mixture that's added after baking, or perhaps use half.

I used it in a cookie recipe today, and it worked fine. I used 1/8 tsp. stevia plus 1/4 cup xylitol to sweeten cookies made with 2 cups of almond flour. The sweetness was perfect for my taste.

I spoon into to coffee straight. Even the thicker part is (if not well shaken when warm) is delicious in coffee or hot chocolate. For even a better cup of coffee, I take the hand held blender and whip it together. It makes a nice frothy top. Then if you are still adventurous, I would add a bit of cocoa (unsweetened) and blend that in for a mocha. Yummy

You have to use twice as much. Baked items have the same taste and texture as regular baking soda.

It may be able to be used for baking but I think vanilla extract would still be better...more concentrated. It's not a real strong smell of vanilla. sure is good in coffees though!!

I tried and was not bad! I really love using this coffee with machine, but I also use it when I have sleepy day - just add the coffee to cup and fill with hot water and drink. It is little bit finely minced, so you could have coffee granules in your mouth, but I do not care ;) I just love the taste.

yes I'd agree. I like the flavor, it is a great replacement for vanilla extract in baking, in my opinion (it serves two purposes then, to sweeten and provide the vanilla flavor)

I have used it in making Oatmeal and in making Creammed Sweet Potato and I use it in making coffee, I would have to answer yes. I'm not much of a baker however I have used it in attempting to make bread. If you could ever get over my " Bread" and stop laughing I think you would agree it did taste good. You can stop laughing now.

I would try the recipe with half all-purpose, except I use unbleached white and do the other half with a whole wheat flour and see how it turns out. Good Luck!!
