  • Best DaVinci Syrups?

    DaVinci's sugar-free syrups are not sold anywhere in the province I live in. Luckily, my aunt is visiting in Edmonton and agreed to bring me back a bottle or two. I asked her to get vanilla but now I'm wondering if there is another flavor I should get as well since it will be a long time before I can get it again. Shipping to Newfoundland is generally more expensive and with a husband who is returning to school next month, I am on a shoestring budget and shipping is something I want to avoid paying for.

    I called the store where she is going to pick it up and the price is $11.00 Canadian, which is cheaper than the Low Carb Grocery website.

    If you had to pick a few, what flavors would you get?

    Hi,

    My favourite is cherry! I love a splash of it on some Club Soda. Caramel is good in coffee. The Kahlua one is good too it you like that flavour. I have about two dozen flavours (I used to order monthly from Low Carb Grocery). I quit ordering a few months ago when I started to cut out all the fankenfoods I was eating. I also cut back on my DaVinci use so what I have will last for a very long time.

        Carmel is also nice for things like muffin in a minute or mock danishes. Raspberry is good in plain yogurt.

          I too will recommend the raspberry, caramael and kaluha. I have english toffee that i'm not really crazy about, white chocolate as well.

          I've had the vanilla and liked it..but don't like french vanilla.

          Ask your aunt if there is a store called 'Homesense' or 'winners' in Edmonton. I get my syrups here homesense (winners is owned by the same company and also sells some foods), it's a home decor store but has a gourmet food aisle. The syrups there are $5.99. Last week I also got some on clearance for $4. The brands are not only Davinci, but they also sell Flavours of Eden and Artisan Coffee Roasters brand which are also made with Splenda and very good.

            Over the years I have tried many different brands of splenda sugar free syrups. For my money (and it does cost a little more!) the Monin brand syrups are the best! Flavored Syrups for Coffee Shops and Cafes : Monin Gourmet Flavorings : Vanilla, Chocolate, Amaretto, Irish Crème, Raspberry

            For me the true test of a flavored syrup is how does it taste straight. The Monin syrups are rich, full flavored and terrific. You don't need to use nearly as much because of the quality. They cost a little more, but they are worth the extra money! My $.02.
