could this be used in place of sugar in , say, Chocolate Chip cookies, or brownies

Yes. It works the same as regular sugar, except it is not quite as sweet as regular sugar, which I happen to like. You need to add a little extra to make it the same exact sweetness as regular sugar.

Yes it can, but I've found that it works best blended with Stevia (I use Stevia In The Raw). Also, I use no more than 1/4 of a cup of Zero in any recipe and split it with about 1/2 to 3/4 cup of Stevia. I find the flavor is really nice, not overwhelming in either direction (as can be the case with too much of either sweetener). My sister and I have made wonderful cookes, cupcakes, etc.

Yes, you can use erythritol in baking, but remember that it is 70% less sweet than sugar. However, I combine it with a small amount of organic whole sugar because the end product just comes out better. Also, erythritol dissolves in hot water, but will recrystallize at room temp, so it doesn't work in beverages (ie. ice tea, or simple syrup).

That's what I use it for....I also use about a tsp in any chocolate recipe....it intensifies the flavor of the chocolate...brownies in particular.

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.

Yes. I have used it in cookies, pancakes, and bread recipes and it works great.

You can use it in place of flour for low-fat, low-calorie, low-glycemic baking. I have specific recipes that call for it. It has no flavor of its own, so it carries the other flavors of your recipe.

Karen,Thanks for asking. The answer is absolutely!In fact, we just used it to replace some brown sugar in a molasses cookie recipe. We did adjust the moisture a bit - we just winged it and they came our delicious. However, elevated temperatures do remove some of the prebiotic benefits. But it works great as a sugar substitute in baking.I hope this helps!MarkGold Source Labs

I doubt it. Sugar isn't much more course than the finest ground this can do. If by icing sugar you mean confectioners sugar, you'd be way off. Furthermore, confectioners sugar has anti-caking agents in it. If you send regular sugar through this you'd likely just end up with a bunch of clumps of sugar from the pressure.

I wouldn't use chemicals with it. It would defeat the purpose, but I have used a little stevia as that is a natural low cal sweetener that is a good sugar alternative substitute. Try low fat milk and stay away from sugar and anything that is man-made.

Yes, but you may want to add a teaspoon of vanilla extract. I use a tablespoon or liquid Splenda instead of sugar.

I would think so? You don't use it like sugar though! It is very, very concentrated!

I would think so. When I used it I made the candies using a block of chocolate bark, stuff you use for Christmas cookies. I hope this was helpful

Depends on what kind of cookie. Would probably work best for a sugar cookie, anything else might look a little odd.

No, its just a better alternative than reg sugar or substitutes. Delicious in coffee and in desserts.

Yes! I would absolutely use it to make a cake! We've made brownies with it many times! I often use it for mug cakes when I'm in the mood for something sweet but don't want a whole cake in the house!

You can use this food coloring for whatever food. I have used it to color sugar before. Don't limit yourself to frosting and cake!

It says on the package that it can be used for baking. I have never done so but have used it as a sweetner for several years now.

I don't see why not as it is pretty much flavored sugar water. I think the trick will be in determining the correct amount to employ. But let me thank you for this great idea as now I look forward to trying it in the next cake I bake. Note that although I purchased the variety pack which is pricey they do also sell individual bottles as well.
