Does this turn thick, gritty, and clumpy when it sits in liquid? Can you taste/smell the stevia? Aftertaste?

When I use the plant Fusion, I mix it with cooked cooled rice. I like mixing my shake mix with something, it keeps me full longer. I think it has A good taste.

I use the chocolate and it mixes well in the liquid. It may thicken a little, but no enough to bother me. I didn't taste/smell the stevia specifically and the drink left no aftertaste. Maybe the instant coffee I added to the powder helped.

I add chia fiber to my smoothie so it thickens but there is no gritty taste or strong stevia taste. In fact, i think it has a smooth taste. I also add zylitol to sweeten.

The consistency is similar to a very fine tile grout. It doesn't clump in a shaker or blender. Actually, the texture was nice but I'm not a diet soda drinker, etc. so I couldn't get past the after taste. And, yes, you can smell the stevia. I didn't want to waste what I bought so I mixed with milk and berries and it seemed to cut down the sweetness. Hope this helps.

Mixes well, but tastes horrible. And yes, there is an after-taste. I do not recommend this product.

It's very sweet to me and very vanilla. Havent tried the chocolate. I haven't found it to be clumpy buy I use my vitAmix. Can't cut the vanilla even with fruit and almond/coconut milk. But I will use it.

Im not sure if it dissolves easily and smoothly in water since I don't add it to water. As far as dissolving in skim milk, yogurt and berries I can definitely say yes. Better tasting than anything I have used and it is NOT "gritty".

I am not that sensitive to tastes, but the drink certainly doesn't have the taste of licorice for me. Some people don't like Stevia because they think it tastes like honey, but it doesn't affect the taste of this; I like my things sweet, so I add even more Stevia! Hard to say how sensitive you are to tastes.

Yes, but the powder version is better. :) You don't want the stevia to get too hot.

I found that the liquid Stevia is not nearly as bitter as the powered Stevia. I really like the fact I can control the amount of sweetener I put in my drinks. I hope this helps.

YEs, you can. It doesn't have a taste like Stevia has. I used mostly in hot tea, so I didn't really notice anything yndissolved. You can always add a little hot water to the xylo to dissolve if that's an issue and then add cold water/ ice. Better than sugar or sweateners... I didn't feel any discomfort oranything when I used it. I liked Xylo

For me, it did not actually dissolve in anything, even when left overnight. I believe there are too many solids which is why it is so grainy, and clumpy.

it does taste chalky and slightly citrus-y..but an aftertaste is also noticed..i use it with my sons' supplements prescribed by a specialist..usually in juice is isn't that noticeable..

I can taste the stevia in it. I don't like the taste, either. I'm drinking it right now. I added PB2 to try and hide the stevia flavor, but it isn't working! Stevia may be all natural, but as far as I'm concerned it tastes just as nasty as artificial sweeteners!

I put mine in water and I can not taste it at all. I have taken it alone and it does havea taste but once you drink something there is no taste. I have never had an after taste, and i sleep much better after taking it

It's loose powder in a bag. I didn't taste the powder itself but it didn't have a stevia aftertaste in the final baked product (a chocolate cake). Hope this helps.

It does have a bit of an after taste, but I think most powders do. This is just a little more chalky because there is no sweetener of any kind to hide it. I have never used it in just fruit and ice smoothies without some sort of dairy/non dairy so I'm not certain how it would taste. I do have to say that for what is in this powder, I am happy with its non flavor and versatility.

It tastes, like, well...dirt. I never just "eat" it. I add it smoothies, hot cereal or if I'm in a hurry, just filtered drinking water. I mix one heaping teaspoon to my pick of the day and mix it in.

Hello, the "natural flavor" found on our label is actually a mistake from our label designer. We DO NOT have any natural flavors in our stevia liquid. The ingredients should read "Water, stevia, Vit. C, potassium Sorbate (freshness)". We apologize for this isprint and are revising our labels to reflect this. Unfortunately, it takes a while for this process. Thank you for your question and let us know if we can answer anything else. Thanks, Diana-Stevia Select

This is a good question. Sugar has a glue like quality in baking. I have used it in bakin and it kind of worked, but didn't get the same texture. Regarding the taste: if you like the stevia flavor, you will like it cooked. If you don't, you will not. I use stevia for cranbery sauce and love it for example. If this is your first time working with stevia, try the flavor in a coffe first. I hope this helps. Oh, but this is the sweetest stevis out there. Very good quality. You will only need a tiny bit.

I did not buy the packets, only the bulk pure powder. In my experience, I have never found a pure stevia product without an aftertaste. That being said, I love the product and we don't notice the aftertaste anymore.

You'll get gritty. I liked the flavor but for me, not the grit. Do you know of creamy clotted fudge?
