Swerve Brown Sugar Replacement

It's not EXACTLY like the old C&H stuff we're used to from childhood, but it's close. Very close. The flavor profile of this, in my opinion, is BETTER than the brown sugar we grew up on....because it's got a vanilla back note. It's really good on oatmeal, toast, and OMG!!!.......SO GOOD ON SWEET POTATOES! It does not really torch well....as in using a kitchen torch to brulee a crunchy shell onto a dessert. Something in that process, I believe, makes the erythritol come out, and then it has a distinct "coolness" factor when melting on the tongue that is sort of strange. But when used in standard ways as a brown sugar replacement, it does a pretty great job, and I don't have to worry so much about blood sugar spikes for my husband, who is diabetic. (Yet oddly, I use this stuff more than he does!)

When I started on my Keto journey, I was disappointed at losing some of my favorite quicky snacks, however, this brown sugar substitute has allowed me to reclaim one of my favorites - Bacon Wrapped Wienies in Brown Sugar!! Other than the brown sugar not 'crisping' on top like the real thing, this works great and is the perfect balance of salty and sweet! To make them, just wrap beef little weenies in bacon and put a toothpick through to hold together, set them in a glass pan then smother in this Brown Sugar. Bake in the oven at 375 til the bacon crisps a bit on top (it will vary depending on the oven but on average 25-35 mins) and enjoy!! SOOOO GOOD! Thanks for giving me back a long time favorite! :)

You won’t believe you can use this on a keto diet! It tastes and bakes just like real brown sugar but does not spike your blood sugar level. Delicious!

Another great product from Swerve, though as most are aware, it does not taste or perform exactly like brown sugar- and it shouldn't, because it's not. It is a wonderful substitute for anyone trying to replace brown sugar in their recipes or diets. Many are grateful for all of the Swerve products~ including myself. That's not what this review is solely about, however. I would like to address a few reviews & comments I've seen on this page "warning" folks to "beware" as this "is an alcohol", & can make you "feel drunk". No. No, it cannot. It would have to contain ethanol in order to inebriate a person, as sugar alcohols are NOT the same as booze/beer/wine/ or any other form of intoxicating alcohol! Ethanol is what makes you drunk, sugar alcohols have zero ethanol- in any of them- therefore you absolutely, 100% cannot get drunk from consuming them. Never, nada- will not happen. On an even more serious note, diabetes & or other blood sugar issues CAN mimic drunkenness, & should be taken very seriously. Please~if you experience a feeling of inebriation but you have not consumed alcohol (ethanol), please contact a medical professional immediately. If you made it this far, thank you for your time. Please practice due diligence & research for yourself any such serious claims being made via product reviews~ including mine. Simply type in your question or concern into your browser's search bar, & you will be flooded with information. Do not stop until you are satisfied that you can form a solid opinion or position on the matter. Have a lovely day, and may God continue to bless your efforts. =) ~Samantha Whitson, PV/AZ

As a seasoned gluten-free home baker, I am always on the lookout for ways to reduce the amount of sugar in my baked goods without compromising on taste. I recently started experimenting with Swerve Ultimate Sugar Replacement Sweetener, specifically the granular and brown sugar varieties, in my cookies and sweet breads. While the brown sugar version didn't quite hit the mark for me, I found the granular variety to be a great substitute for sugar in many recipes. I have even started using Swerve in place of sugar when making fruit spreads from my own peach and plum harvests, and the results have been excellent. I appreciate that Swerve is marketed as a healthy, clean sugar replacement, and I plan to do more experimenting with it in my baking. I have already found the "how to bake with Swerve" website to be a helpful resource, as it provides tips on how to achieve a crisp cookie texture. Overall, I am very pleased with Swerve Ultimate Sugar Replacement Sweetener and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a sugar substitute that doesn't sacrifice taste. The only downside is the price, as the bags could be a little fuller or larger for the amount you get. But despite the cost, I am grateful for the alternative that Swerve provides in my family's diet, especially since I am not a fan of the bitterness of stevia. I hope my review was helpful to you.

Works well

The sugar free Swerve Brown Sugar is tasty and bakes just like real brown sugar.

The best on the market!
