I had found this in another post...I can't exactly remember where...but I have it saved in my favorites.

Hi Gang,
To save money, I buy all my Splenda in packet form, since Costco carries
a box of 700 packets for less than $14. This is the equivalent of 29 cups
of granular Splenda. There are only 2.29 cups of Splenda in a box of granular
and it retails for US$4.30 per box on the Splenda website
(including shipping) which means 29 cups would cost US$54.45.
So buying it at Costco saves me a whopping $40 each time!
I hate stopping to do the conversions when I'm using the packets,
though, so I came up with this handy dandy
conversion chart and thought it might be useful to someone else. So here it is:
Code:-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Splenda Conversion Chart
1 C = 16 T = 48 tsp = 24 packets
3/4 C = 12 T = 36 tsp = 18 packets
1/2 C = 8 T = 24 tsp = 12 packets
1/3 C = 5.3T = 16 tsp = 8 packets
1/4 C = 4T = 12 tsp = 6 packets
1/8 C = 2T = 6 tsp = 3 packets
1T = 3 tsp = 1.5 packet
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I hope someone finds this information useful. I know it's saved me a lot of forehead furrowing while I'm in the middle of a recipe.
