Hi voyajer!

Thanks for posting the recipe.

Did you know that Splenda does contain carbohydrates? There are 26 grams of carbohydrate and 106 calories per cup which come from the maltodextrin that is used as a filler to make it pourable.

Karen, you are right. Replace powder form of sucralose in recipe with liquid sucralose. It should taste the same. I'll test it soon.

Info on Splenda from: http://members.fortunecity.com/bost...nkitty/id9.html

Be forewarned, however, that both the packets and granular have maltodextrin and / or dextrose as a 'filler' to increase the bulk of the sucralose, so that it can be measured the same as sugar (i.e., 1 cup granular Splenda = 1 cup sugar). And the maltodextrin filler has carbohydrates: .5g per teaspoon, 24g to a cup.

The packets of Splenda do not measure out the same as table sugar. Each packet is equivalent in sweetness to 2 tsp of sugar. The packets have 1g of dextrose per packet with a small amount of Maltodextrin; each packet = 1 carb.
This information was confirmed with the manufacturer.

To purchase the packets or granular Splenda, or to find out which products currentlly are available with Splenda, what kind of testing has been done, etc, go to the manufacturer's website (listed on the Links page),

The tablets do not contain any fillers or carbohydrates.
The tablets are available at Low Carb Nexus among other places. (see Links page)

If using the powder form of Splenda, add 2 gm carbs and 8 calories per slice of Soy Banana Bread recipe. It's all good.

This sounds SO GOOD I don't dare make it....no way I could stop at just one piece!!
