Customer Reviews of Pure Stevia Extract Powder by Kal - 3.5 oz
Customer Review: The best non-sugar sweetener available
Summary: 5 Stars
Pure Stevia tastes like to sugar. No aftertaste, no residue. What more could you ask for?
A TRUE REPLACEMENT
After 60 years, I've broken my sugar addiction. Before pure Stevia, I used Splenda and later Truvia/Purevia (Stevia cut with bulking agents) for several years. The Truvia/Purevia were better than Splenda, but both the Splenda and Truvia/Purevia left disgusting residues and just didn't taste right (because of the fillers or bulking agents added). More importantly for me, I could not fully enjoy my gourmet coffee with either. When I first began using pure Stevia, I appreciated the better flavor and lack of a residue, but it still did not taste quite like sugar to me. However, after 6 months of pure Stevia, it tastes like sugar to me, and I am again enjoying gourmet coffee.
Perhaps more precisely, pure stevia is "as satisfying" as sugar for "cutting the edge" of bitter or sour drinks and foods---the way most people use sugar.
So, for me there was an adjustment period during which pure Stevia went from "the best artificial sweetner I've ever used" to "just as good as sugar" for day to day use.
However, it is not as intensely sugary-sweet, regardless of how much you use. For a rare, once-a-month "desert" cup of fine coffee, I still use real sugar and real cream.
EASE OF USE
Some reviewers have stated that the liquid is easier to measure than the powder. That's true, but its mostly because the liquid is more diluted. I need 20 drops in a large mug of strong coffee. In contrast, I use "4 shakes" of powdered Stevia (in a salt shaker with small holes). 4 "shakes" is easier than 20 drops---so I find the powder more convenient for coffee.
The 3.5oz powedered Stevia comes with a tiny little spoon which holds about the equivalent of a heaping teaspoon of sugar---but I didn't find it until the container was nearly empty. I still prefer my "salt shaker".
Although I prefer the powder for coffee, the liquid is probably preferable for cold drinks, since the powder does not disolve easily in cold liquids. I also find that unsweetened fruit cups etc. are just too sour for my taste---a few drops of the liquid Stevia makes them perfect. Pure Stevia Liquid Extract - 4 oz - Liquid
ECONOMY
I use the equivalent of about 12 heaping teaspoons of sugar daily = 12 shakes of pure Stevia in my salt shaker for 4 large mugs of strong coffee daily. A 3.5oz container of pure Stevia lasted me for about a year. I probably spent $100 a year on Truvia/Purevia.
