The taste is unbelieveable!!!! I am on my second box. Have used to make LC cheesecake, Knox/Koolade Jello and creme brulee. It has bulk like sugar so bakes great. It says to use in same amts as you would sugar but I find it sweeter than sugar and use about 25% less. The boxes I got weigh 110 grams and a cup of Splenda wghs 25 grams so you get about 4 1/3 cup of Splenda per box. it. Have fun, — Micky/Michelle 178/174/135?

Can you give the full URL for the location of Splenda at this site? I called Lifescan via their 800 number and was told they don’t sell any products through their website. Thanks, Jim

Can’t find splenda at lifescan.com. Did locate it at synergydiet.com: price 5.74 (super Tuesday special) but regularly 6.75 for a 110 gm box. Is this too expensive? TIA halbright
Response:
Jim, Go to www.lifescan.com and click on "What’s new". There will be a site where you can buy Splenda granules and packets. You’re right, Lifescan doesn’t sell it directly. Shannon L.

Thanks Debbie and Halbright. When I posted I wasn’t on-line and I didn’t have the full URL written down. It’s bookmarked though and will get lots of use until we can just buy Splenda at the store.

Go to: http://www.lifescan.com/lsabout/whatsnew.html and you’ll see, at the very top of the page, a link to purchase Splenda online. Lifescan doesn’t sell it, but you have to go through their site to get it from McNeil because they’re only selling it to diabetics as of right now. (Lots of brand new diabetics around!)

It’s a link to McNeil. I ordered via the lifescan link Thurs or Fri, and my order arrived today. — "There’s a seeker born every minute."

I just ordered some splenda and was wondering if you need to mix this sweetener with other AS to cover the bitter aftertaste. Since it’s been a while since I have cooked LC, I was out of one kind of AS. The result was that nasty aftertaste again. Thanks, Wendy

I have done a taste test in my office; took two small plates, shook some Splenda in one, sugar in the other, and asked about seven people in the general area to wet their fingers and dip it in one or the other. Nobody could tell the difference. It’s not double-blind testing, but I hope it reassures you that you can use splenda just like sugar and there ain’t no aftertaste. — Stack FAQ at http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Village/4999/stackfaq.htm 349/336/wherever as the King of Tuna Vs lbh pna ernq guvf lbh ernyyl bhtug gb trg bhg zber
