da vinci syrups
I've found the SF vanilla (not French vanilla) and hazelnut flavors at both Kroger and Super Walmart in my area. Kroger had the small bottles for $3.29; Walmart had the large bottles (near the coffees & teas) for $5.57. I've ordered other flavors directly from davinci's website (link is found earlier in this thread).
Have tried chocolate, vanilla, French vanilla, hazelnut, blueberry, and banana flavors so far. Like all well enough, but the French vanilla tastes slightly artificial to me, and the blueberry is sort of limited (imo) except for Italian sodas. (I tried using the blueberry for pancakes, but it didn't turn out like expected. Probably my fault with attempting to thicken it a bit. Will try again, though!)
Like others, I've used them in Italian sodas, to sweeten & flavor coffee and shakes. I especially like the banana syrup with the Keto Banana Shake -- much better banana flavor and only slightly more sweet. I occasionally will have a small glass (3oz) of cream thinned down with some syrup when I just want something thick, creamy and sweet. I've also used the syrups to substitute part of the liquid+splenda in recipes -- which not only tastes great, but reduces the total carb counts, too (since you don't have to count those pesky splenda maltodextrin carbs for the amount substituted). Works quite well in homemade SF ice cream, for instance.
Good stuff!
Am about to place an order for some new flavors, based on the recs here -- raspberry & Kahuli Caffe for certain, maybe Irish Cream and caramel, too.
