I've used Swerve for years and it tastes pretty good depending on the recipe. It has a bit of an aftertaste but you can cover it up. Any baked goods that have tartness will block the aftertaste so any lemon or lime deserts work. I've made almond flour cookies with lemon icing that taste just great - I like very tart icing so it works. Chocolate also covers up the taste since it has a slight acidity or tartness. But a vanilla sponge cake will taste funny

One of my friends suggested I switch to this about a year or two ago. I bought a bunch of it because she said it was amazing. I meant to research it myself, but never did and just trusted my friend’s word.

Finally had time to just sit down and actually research for myself. Now that I’ve seen this video, I’m super glad I’ve been using it this whole time. I already knew it tasted fantastic. I don’t even use regular sugar anymore.

Anyway, great video. Swerve is amazing and I hope more people find out about it!

So happy to see it is a healthy option! I thought it was but it is always great to see it from a medical perspective. I just used it in my Pumpkin Spice Latte (recipe on YouTube, Duff's) and I can tell you it was absolutely delicious! I'm going to check out your wife's snickerdoodle recipe. That's right up there with my top favorite cookies. I've been on IF and HFLC for over a year and have lost 95 pounds and in the best shape and health of my 66 years on this earth. Thank you again!

Thanks for sharing. I love cooking with this. Been low carbs no sugar since June 4th and I love it. 😊💪🏾💯💜

I was really hoping this would be a great alternative to sugar, being on a lowcarb diet. But it has a VERY “cooling” aftertaste that I can not do. It is very strong! Cooling, - like u would get from like a peppermint, -not the taste per se, but cooling sensation.

This mixed with peanut butter is so good! Keto peanut butter balls! Just mix about half and half of these two ingredients. Add more swerve a little at a time until you have semi- shiny balls and they are not sticky. 🙂

I agree! It's tastes even better now that I have stopped using table sugar. My taste buds are sensitive to the sweet taste of Swerve.

I love this product. Ive been using it as a sugar sub in keto cookies and with my no fat yogurt. great flavor

[jrcotton]

Used this in tea and unsweetened milk and not bad at all and doesnt spike my sugar up, so it something to use from now on..

Swerve gave me very bad bloating and cramps in my stomach it was so bad I had to lay down. It passed after a few hours. I don’t know if I used too much or if it was I didn’t actually bake with it. I just mixed a few table spoons into my warm green tea. I was so happy with the taste but read the side effects after and the process of how it’s made. Maybe my digestive tract can’t handle that.

Thanks for this video review of Swerve. If you would do the same with another brand, King Arthur Baking Sugar Alternative, it would be most appreciated.

I'm ok with a little in my herbal tea, but when I baked with it, I got bad cramps and diarrhea. dang. will try again.

What about
“NATURAL FLAVORS” Did this company takeaway or add. I thought natural flavors is something we all need to look out for. Thank you

Swerve gives me fatigue and muscle aches. When I stop eating it I feel better, when I resume I feel tired again. I still have one bag to finish and don't want it to go to waste. It will be my last... too bad because I liked baking mug cakes with it.

Erythritol gives me nausea.

I've tried Lakanto Monkfruit sweetener (Monkfruit + Erythritol) and pure Monkfruit extract.

Swerve makes excellent New York Cheese cake. 🧀 . The brown sugar is exactly like brown sugar. It's awesome.

[tristanrl]

am wondering prior to making an impulsive purchase if this product can be made/cooked into the equivalent of what’s commonly called a simple syrup - - e.g. - for adding a bit of sweet to a cold beverage - as we know, castor sugar in its granular form does not dissolve in cold liquids

[NoName]

Swerve is sugar substitute period, not just for cooking

[MALIK-sxqq]

Would this technically break a fast ? I was thinking of adding it to carbonated water
