Is this the most economical form of Sweetleaf Stevia powder that you have found?

Think it's the most cost effective. Ever since Stevia was brought to public attention, numerous companies have jumped into the market and have added all kind of unnecessary ingredients into their products. This product only adds inulin, which is fine. If you find other products that are less expensive but have ingredients other than Stevia and inulin, I'd recommend you don't buy it. Hope this helps.

I would have to say yes. I've tried the mini tablets and though I love them because they are potent and lasted me a long time but they were $9 for 50. This is a better deal for sure

It was cheaper than the other forms offered on Amazon. I did not look anyplace else.

No, buying it in bulk is the best way. I bought the 4.46 oz bag for home. But if your going to carry it around with you, get the 500 count individual packet unit.

Yes it is! As the description says, this is 100% pure stevia extract. "Now" does make other products that are a blend of stevia and maltodextrin, but this is their pure stevia extract powder. Check labels carefully when purchasing stevia. If you want the pure extract, this is Now's version.

I depends how you use it. There are supposed to be different ratios for different uses. In general, if you just mix it for use as a cow milk substitute, you get approximately 1 3/4 gallon. That is one rounded tablespoon per 8 oz of water. For cooking it is 2/3 cup powder mixed with 1/4 cup hot water. For desserts, it is a 1:1 ratio of powder to water. You will get much less using the cooking or dessert ratio. I like to make it richer with more powder, and then add liquid vanilla creme stevia sweet drops from sweet leaf. These can be found at www.sweetleaf.com/products/sweet-drops-products or Amazon or your local health food store. Pick any flavor you like.

Per my research this is what I found and by the way I have not had one scoop of sugar after my purchase of Stevia. Stevia Extract 90% pure powder (Which is standardized at 90% total steviol glycosides, with about 40% Rebaudioside-A inside. The other 10% is other substance extracted from stevia leaf). There is not any additive or filler inside.

I am not a supplier, but another consumer who purchased this product. And, no, it is not "Stevia In The Raw." The product you will receive in the mail is called: "Yes!" a stevia sweetner. The ingredients seem to be the same: dextrose, stevia leaf extract, and natural flavoring. But, like I said, this is not the original, "Stevia In The Raw." I though, personally, think it tastes better than Stevia In The Raw.

I have used this powder to enhance sugar free brownie mixes. My granddaughter who is a sugarholic loved the results and we could detect no aftertaste. I am unsure about converting a recipe requiring sugar for the use of Sweet Leaf.

The powder in the jars is pure. The powder in the packets is not. The amount of pure stevia needed to sweeten one serving of a beverage is so tiny that if they put that in a packet, it would seem the packet is empty. So they cut it in with other ingredients whenever you buy stevia in packets.The exact ingredient description on the 1 lb. plastic jar I bought: "Certified Organic Stevia Extract Powder (Stevia rebaudiana) (Leaf)."Nothing else.

I used it in a cookie recipe today, and it worked fine. I used 1/8 tsp. stevia plus 1/4 cup xylitol to sweeten cookies made with 2 cups of almond flour. The sweetness was perfect for my taste.

I prefer the liquid stevia when using it for iced tea, sweetening my plain yogurt, etc., because powder is harder to dissolve in cold food and beverages. I have tried various powder and liquid brands and by far like the Sweet Leaf liquid the very best. Also, some powdered versions can have other ingredients added along with an anti-caking additive.

Yes. The measurments are different that sugar. There are cookbooks on how to use it. I have found liquid stevia tastes better in some things than the powdered stevia, but stevia doesn't taste good in all things. You have to experiment.

I just came across this when looking for the adult unflavored calm-mag by natural vitality. I have started giving my toddler the plain adult version in a very small dosage-it's free of sugars, which I like. The flavored ones, even for adults, contain stevia which my body does not react well to ingesting. Today I gave her 1/8 of a teaspoon, which I'll probably do every couple days to ease into it.

Hi, I haven't bought the packets, only the loose stevia in a bottle. But as far as I can tell it lasts for years. I don't know if it gets stale after years, but I've used old powder and it's been fine.

I agree with Northernliving. NuNaturals stevia was my favorite, before they changed their formula, and I've tried many, including this one since. Nothing I have tried has compared to NuNaturals' old formula. This one is okay, but takes more to sweeten and isn't as good in my opinion. Good luck!

In my opinion, Sweet Leaf brand stevia products are in the minority when it comes to 100% pure without added ingredients. In fact, it's the only one I have found and the only one I use. I have stevia plants growing in the garden now so I will see what I can do with the leaves later to make my own home recipe.

it is grandular. I found powdered though here on Amazon - Swerve Sweetener, Confectioners, 1pk $13.41 Very expensive but works great for frosting and I can do 2 cakes with this amount.

Well, Corey I did some research and it appears that you may be on to something. Already purchased a gigantic package of Stevia In The raw, so I will likely ride it out. However, I am now on the lookout for a natural sugar substitute, any suggestions? Someone suggested Sweet Leaf brand but not sure about that either.

Sorry, no longer taking this product...it's too expensive. Now buying and using DietWorks Green Coffee Bean Extract, which is much more reasonably priced.
