In reply to Rena. I haven't used that powder before actually. But if its concentrated (usually it is if its in a small bottle), all you may need is 1/4 tsp to 1/2 tsp in the entire recipe. Then just test the batter to see if its sweet enough. Keep in mind a bit of the sweetness gets lost in the baking process.

Hi, have you ever used the sweetleaf stevia powder form? If so, do you like it? and how would i use it when your recipes call for “stevia for baking or packets?” Thanks!

I am trying to like stevia. its ok with certian things, but i do find it a bit bitter. I wish I liked it more than I actually do.
i hate to admit, i like splenda. I used to eat it plain when I was all eating disordered in high school. How sad it that, I ate seven packets as a lunch with a diet pepsi! Thank god I got over it!
Have you tried yacon syrup? blackstrap molasses is also pretty low in calories and high in nutrients.
