Lakanto Golden Monk Fruit Sweetener With Allulose, Raw Cane Sugar Substitute From Monk Fruit Extract, Raw Sugar Replacement for Baking, Coffee & Tea, Gluten Free, Low Carb, Non GMO, Keto, 3 LB Bag

My personal opinion is this sugar free taste is the closest to regular sugar taste. Yes, it is NOT real sugar, but it doesn’t leave the fake taste in my mouth after eating or using it in my coffee. I have baked with it, in cereal & in my coffee. You kinda have to get a feel of how sweet you want something, determines how much to use.

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I have been buying various brands of plain Allulose and adding monkfruit to up the sweetness as needed. I saw this months ago, but was hesitant to order it since it was "golden". I had a not too great experience with brown Allulose in the past and was skeptical. I finally tried it today in my morning tea, and it is wonderful. I always used evaporated cane juice or natural sugar in the past, and this has the same flavor. I am looking forward to using this in my baking. Unfortunately, I just purchased two pounds of white Allulose, but I'll be mixing the two until those are used up, then switching to this 100%.

For those of us who want to cut back on our sugar but enjoy things sweet, I recommend this product. I use it mainly for making our ice tea. I have an ice tea maker and use one half cup. It will never be as sweet as sugar but it makes our perfect. It does dissloves easily and I add it during the making process.

I find the taste of this extremely close to the actual taste of sugar without even a hint of the unpleasant after-taste you get from many of the other sugar substitutes. It behaves in every way like sugar, except that I don't agree that it's a one-to-one replacement for sugar, at least not in coffee, as I find I have to use about 3 teaspoons of this to achieve the same degree of sweetness I get from about a teaspoon and a half of sugar. But that's not at all important to me, I'm happy to use more of it if I have to. The point is, it tastes great, has zero calories, and doesn't promote tooth decay.I should mention that I switched to this after first having used the version of Monkfruit sweetener made with Erythritol instead of Allulose for years but became concerned with the former after reading certain studies calling into question the safety of Erythritol. Not saying those studies are necessarily true or that Allulose has proven to be any safer; just reporting the reason for my change. They both taste pretty much identical so it was not a difficult decision to simply use something else if there was any question.The reason I'm giving this only 4 stars instead of 5, however, has nothing to do with the taste or any aspect of the product itself -- the product is excellent, let me make that clear. It's because, for whatever reason, this seller has completely failed to deliver it on two occasions. Each delivery getting "lost" somehow.The most recent incident was as part of what was supposed to have been a subscription delivery that got totally messed up, then I had an issue getting a refund, although I eventually did get my money back. They apparently stock-out of this from time to time but you get no notice except that it hasn't arrived when it was supposed to and then you check into your account to find out what happened to your order. Then all you find is a message saying "Your delivery has been delayed" with no further information as to when you can expect it to come. Don't forget, this is a subscription, it was placed weeks ago, so how is it they don't have enough stock on hand to fill your order that they knew was coming?You may or may not get a message later saying words to the effect, "Your order has been lost, would you like a refund?", but if you choose "I'd like a refund", you're still not getting any Monkfruit Sweetener and apparently you would not get any until the next few weeks when your subsequent subscription date would be due again. Not okay.See, I'd rather have the sweetener than the refund, or else why would I have placed the order in the first place? Unless you contact Amazon to follow up on this yourself, nothing more will happen. They missed a delivery, you don't have your product. Again, that's not okay, especially when you use this product regularly as you would sugar or any grocery staple. To fix this, I had to cancel my subscription, then immediately sign up for a new subscription. Really dumb way of doing things and I certainly shouldn't have had to go through all of this just to get the product I ordered weeks earlier and subscribed to specifically so that I would never run out.But I'm gong to give them the benefit of the doubt for now and hopefully they can clean up that part of their act, because the product itself, as I said, is excellent. They just need to learn how to manage inventory, work on keeping enough in stock to fulfill their orders, and do a better job of communicating with customers if there's going to be an issue with delivery.

I like that there is no erythriol, and the flavor is pleasant with no weird aftertaste. I use it pretty much one for one when replacing sugar in recipes. Be sure not to overbake your baked goods when you use it, because things do brown a little more.

My favorite sweetener! This sweetener is the best I have found. It is sweet enough without bitterness or any strange aftertaste. I have tried many types of sweetener and I like the taste of Splenda which is really not good for us. The allulose and monk fruit blend is the best. Dissolves well. No tummy upset.

By far the most neutral non-sugar sweetener.My search is over.I've tried multiple xylitol, stevia, Splenda, and aspartame-derived sweeteners and this product kicks their butts all over the kitchen.

I love this sugar substitute it’s natural it’s safe and it tastes exactly like sugar. The Golden Raw tasted more like brown sugar but it’s still really good in coffee and baking
