Great tasting lo calorie sweetener,
September 29, 2006
By

from California
I highly recommended this product. Everyone I know who tried it found the flavor and sweetness to be pleasant, with no bitter tones or aftertastes. I’ve tried the Slimsweet packets and the Slimsweet powder. I’m not sure why, but the powder tastes much better. The packets I tasted had larger grains and seemed to have a stronger lo han kuo (momordica grosvenori) flavor. The Slimsweet powder seemed to taste sweeter with less lo han kuo flavor. Slimsweet tastes somewhat similar to brown sugar or honey. It has a full body mouth feel, it lingers in the mouth. Usually the recommended 1/5 tsp will sweeten up a cup of coffee well, but going beyond 1/2 tsp increases the flavor of the lo han kuo without increasing the sweetness much. The sweetening power of lo han kuo seems to plateau at a moderate sweetness level and never becomes intense no matter how much you use. However, like brown sugar or honey, the flavor can become intense if far too much is used. If you need a more intense sweetness, I found adding erythritol (a natural low calorie sweetener which tastes almost exactly like sugar) works best. A very high quality stevia extract (like all natural Sooolite!) will also work, but not as well as erythritol.

Slimsweet's the Best,
December 07, 2006
My ever-so-strict nutritionist emphaticly declares this is the BEST sweetner and that's okay because it tastes great! It tastes like sugar with no aftertaste or anything else to un-reccomend it. I love the stuff.

Great product. I use it in my protein shakes, cereal, tea, etc. Tastes more like brown sugar than white sugar. No after taste.

Best-kept sweet secret,

SlimSweet is fabulous! It astonishes me that SlimSweet is not more popular or widely used. It tastes EXACTLY like sugar and is the best natural low-glyemic sweetener I've found and I have been on a quest for years!
LOVE this stuff!

I enjoy this in my coffee. It does not leave a bitter after taste like stevia does.
