  • Stevia Powder and Fiber?

    Anyone tried Stevia powder packets with fiber?


    I've seen folks change over from Splenda to Stevia liquid, but my Walmart here out in the land of nowhere is carrying Stevia Powder packets with fiber of 100 packets for about $8 and some change.

    Now, I'm not excited about the price of the stuff, but I'm curious because it's one thing to try for experience and for future summer berry recipes.

    Thanks for any thoughts.

      I primarily use stevia powder, but I also have sweetleaf brand stevia plus. Inulin is the added fiber. www.sweetleaf.com I bought it at Trader Joe's. I use straight stevia more often though.

        Sorry, Joy...I forgot to put the ingredients on the packets that I found on sweetleaf website.

        Thanks, Dotsamantha, for clearing that one up about the fiber and the website for the info.

        So, I'm assuming the Stevia Powder w/fiber that I saw is different than the usual Stevia powder. Interesting.

        Okay, how about the taste? Any better than Splenda?

        I find Splenda a little bitter and can totally tell it's in the food/drinks.

          The sweetleaf stevia with fiber is a milder sweet than straight I think. I use it mostly in tea.

            Interesting. Thanks! I added it on to my grocery list for next week...along with DiVinci Syrups. I've been out since...I can't remember when. Time to restock my LC pantry again and get it up to par for the school season!

              I am going to Trader Joes today to stock up on some key items. I use Stevia almost exclusively so I may look up the ones with fiber. I think I may get some syrups too but I don't know if Trader Joes carries those. What sweetner are the syrups made with?

                Most of the sweetners I've seen around the stores here are with Splenda. However, I've read a few SF bottles at Ross that had aspertame (sp?)...of which I try to avoid because it gives me headache. I have yet to see any SF syrups to be made with Stevia...let's hope someone out there has seen them or making them
