Liquid Splenda

Thread rating:  |
Evelyn Ruut - 17 Mar 2004 14:25 GMT Just got our tiny bottle of liquid Splenda purchased from a link someone here provided.
My husband reports that it definitely has none of the aftertaste the powdered packets seem (to him) have. I couldn't tell the difference, but then I don't use a lot anyway. My only complaint is that it is very pricey stuff!!!!
Nevertheless, they claim that the tiny bottle contains the equivelent of 24 cups of sugar, which makes it a bit more justified.
Two tiny drops is all I need in a huge cup of tea, to sweeten it nicely.

It is very convenient in that tiny little bottle. Ideal to slip into my purse and take along wherever I go. Most restaurants only have Equal (bearable in a pinch) or Sweet n Low (yecch!)

Most restaurants only have Equal >(bearable in a pinch) or Sweet n Low (yecch!) Hi, good to see you... 7 11 stores are now carrying splenda and some SF coffee flavoring.s. I always carry splenda with me in my purse, in the car.. hubby carrys it in his briefcase.. The little bottle sounds very convenient, but I like the idea of NO fillers, best.

The only glitch is that it is VERY concentrated. One drop is like a tsp of sugar at least. Two is too much. I think I may actually dilute it even more to be able to get a finer breakdown on the quantity we use.

I was thinking eye dropper maybe.. Jeanne, it actually COMES in a dropper bottle, and you can let it out one drop at a time. The glitch is that it is so sweet that two drops is too sweet for my taste.

That way you will use it fast enough, but not run the risk of messing up what you have.. I think that is what Im going to do when it arrives.. Best of luck jeanne

Thanks!
Dave Balcom - 21 Mar 2004 23:32 GMT }Did you ever receive any confirmation email, other than the PayPal }confirmation, or other communication from the seller?
I bought the 2 oz bottle and got an email confirmation from PayPal then an email from Diane a couple of days later saying the order was shipped. From order to arrival was less than a week and was packed very well. I was a little skeptical in the beginning but now I am extremely pleased with the purchase.
Later, Dave

I never did get an email, although I did send a request for email and shipping confirmation; instead, I have received the shipment (I assume complete, although I've not opened it yet).

It does seem pricey, but if you price the packets against the liquid, you'll find it comes out cheaper.

Both liquid and dry bulk Splenda have a really yicky aftertaste for me. I think it affects fewer folks than saccharine does, though.
