What is erythritol?
Erythritol is a zero calorie sugar replacement used to sweeten just about anything! Sprinkle over fruit and even bake with it just like sugar!
As part of the “sugar alcohol” family, Erythritol is a naturally derived extract from fruits and plants and passes straight through your body undigested. Therefore, erythritol does not affect blood glucose levels in most people and has zero net carbohydrates! This makes it the perfect sugar alternative for diabetics, low carb “keto” dieters and anyone reducing calories.

Directions for use
Usage:
Granulated Erythritol can be used just like sugar in everything. It's great for recipes that require granulated sugar (caster sugar) such as sponge cakes.
It is 70% the sweetness of sugar therefore 100g sugar = 130g erythritol. Please see our recipes for further help.
