HEALTH GARDEN Monk Fruit Sweetener, Golden- Non GMO - Gluten Free - Sugar Substitute - Kosher - Keto Friendly (3 lbs) (9505)

I was looking for a sugar substitute that wasn’t an artificial sweetener, mainly for my morning coffee—not for baking or cooking. I decided to try the smallest bag first, and I was pleasantly surprised. It tastes just like sugar with no weird aftertaste, which was exactly what I wanted.I liked it so much that I bought it again, this time the 16 oz bag, and I’ll see how long it lasts. If I were diabetic and using this as a full replacement for sugar in everything, I could see how the cost might add up. But for my needs, it’s completely worth it. You’re paying for a high-quality product that doesn’t compromise your health.One thing to note is that this product contains erythritol. Like with many ingredients, there can be side effects, but it’s worth remembering that erythritol is naturally ingested when we drink wine or beer. And let’s be honest—sugar itself has plenty of side effects too. At the end of the day, everything has its trade-offs, and you just have to pick your poison.

I love this stuff. In the past five years, I've probably bought this a dozen or so times. I use it for everything you would use regular cane sugar for (white or brown); coffee, drinks, yogurt, baking--you name it! I've tried probably 50 different types of alternate sugars growing up and into my adulthood, and this is by far the best. It acts exactly like regular sugar in baking and all other uses, and tastes almost exactly the same. I say almost exactly because it does have a very, very light flavor to it of monk fruit. I've tried many different types of monk fruit sweeteners as well... they are not all created equal. I've even used 100% monk fruit powder (wow that is powerful stuff! Has a grossly sweet flavor, not at all like sugar but still better than some replacements like stevia). Another second favorite would be agave syrup, but that still has a lot of calories. I find this product is the healthiest option that is most like sugar. Seriously, if not for the very faint flavor (which is a very good flavor, by the way) I would say it is exactly like sugar. Well, it does seem to sweeten just a bit more than real sugar, just a little, which I don't mind. The carbs are nonexistent. On my searches, I've found it's really hard to get a sweetener that has both 0 calories, 0 carbs, isn't really engineered and is actually healthy from you... usually at best you get either 0 carbs or 0 calories. This sweetener has 0 net carbs but it does have some calories... however, it's such low calories compared to so many others that it is the best bang for your health and caloric buck.I try to convince all my family and friends that this stuff is a life and game changer... but they're always skeptical and won't try it, lol! However no one ever notices anything when I bake it or use it to make their coffee etc. I don't think they notice a difference at all. To me, it makes things taste a little better. I love sweet things like Starbucks coffee and sweet yogurt so I like to make my own with this monk fruit sweetener (specifically the brown kind seems to be the magical recipe), and feel a whole lot better about it.In conclusion, just get this stuff! Give it a shot! You can't go wrong with it. I like the brown kind.

I recently discovered Health Garden's Monk Fruit Sweetener, Golden, and it has truly transformed my approach to sweetening my favorite recipes! As someone who is health-conscious and looking to reduce sugar intake, I couldn't be happier with this product.One of the standout features of this sweetener is that it is derived from monk fruit, a natural and calorie-free alternative to traditional sugar. Unlike regular sugar, which can spike blood sugar levels and contribute to various health issues, monk fruit sweetener has a low glycemic index,The taste is exceptional—smooth and sweet without any bitter aftertaste, which can be a concern with some other sugar substitutes. I’ve used it in everything from baking to my morning coffee, and it enhances flavors beautifully without compromising on taste.

Delicious

aaaaaaaa

Tastes just like regular brown sugar and you can bake with it and use it just like regular sugar. It's great for baking things for my diabetic husband.

This golden monk fruit is the perfect sugar substitute. With a slight hint of a brown sugar vibe, it’s great in my morning tea, and all my other sweetening needs. This brand is so good and consistent that I subscribed to make sure I always have some.

Love it, use it in everything! Great taste!
