How to compare sugar replacements for baking

Choosing a sugar replacement is easier when you compare the same things. The front of the pack rarely tells the whole story.

Your comparison checklist

What to compare What to look for
Ingredients Single ingredient or blend; check every component.
Sweetness Follow the maker’s guidance rather than assuming equal spoonfuls.
Recipe role Consider texture and browning as well as sweetness.
Price Compare price per kilogram and delivery charges.
Dietary needs Read allergens and seek personal advice when needed.
Pets in the home Keep all baking ingredients out of reach. Xylitol is highly toxic to dogs.

Where ZUKR fits

ZUKR is organic erythritol. Try a recipe developed for erythritol before adapting another recipe. Excessive consumption of polyols may produce laxative effects.
