Still ANNOYED at Splenda
OK … so I got slightly over my baking disaster (I am a good baker) and decided to look up the splenda site.
Because I am in Canada, I went to the Canadian Splenda Site … the American Site is actually a bit different, similar content though.
So … I find the baking section and BEHOLD … there are a PILE of differences in baking with Splenda. So I’m annoyed all over again. Why don’t they put this information on their package instead of implying it is virtually the same.
NOW when I read the fine print, I see that they didn’t actually lie, they just don’t come out and say … “HEY dude, make sure you check out the website before you use this in your regular recipes. ”
Anyhow … to give them credit, the Canadian website is great. There are loads of tips and hints about cooking and baking with Splenda and there are loads of recipes.
This one I’m going to try … maybe even tonight. Molten Centre Chocolate Raspberry Cake. I’ll let you know how it turns out.
AND … though I am pretty good on eliminating the need (or desire) for sugar, I DO have the occasional craving, so I guess another few of the following cook books are on my wish list.
