Saw this in target. Doesn't this defeat the purpose? People use splendid, stevia and Truvia because they don't want to use sugar.

I switched almost entirely to Stevia and really enjoy the results.

Never seen this product.

Stevia or truvia

Truvia is stevia but much better. Different extraction method. No bitterness

Sugar serves purposes other than adding sweetness in baking. That is why Truvia baking blend and Splenda baking blend exist. Your baked goods will be closer to normal and you are still cutting calories.

With the truvia baking blend you use half of the amount of sugar called for in a recipe so you are still cutting the sugar content by 75%.

Wife uses the Splenda. I can tell in baked goods, not sweetnesss wise, more of a texture thing.
