The best sweetness comes from nature. Truvía® sweetener is natural, zero or reduced calorie sweetness born from the leaves of the stevia plant. The Truvía® sweetener family of products includes Truvía® Natural Sweetener, Truvía® Baking Blend, and Truvía® Brown Sugar Blend.
With this sampling I was not too sure how many moms would feel about Truvia. I decided to make a couple Sugar Cookies for each Mom, along with giving them samples of the Truvia Natural Sweetener and some Truvia Brown Sugar Blend to try on their own. I am not a huge fan of this sweetener, I still have the after taste in my mouth after eating, or drinking anything with this sweetener in them. I let the mommy's decide on their own, but here are some facts about the sweetener......
• Truvía® Natural Sweetener is a natural, great-tasting, zero-calorie sugar substitute made from the sweetest part of the stevia leaf. From coffee and tea to yogurt, salad dressings and cocktails, you can use Truvía® Natural Sweetener to add sweetness to all of your favorites, without the added sugar!
• Truvía® Baking Blend is a sweet mix of Truvía® Natural Sweetener and cane sugar that bakes and browns just like sugar, with 75% fewer calories per serving than sugar. Simply replace 1 cup of sugar with a ½ cup of Truvía® Baking Blend in your favorite recipes to get the same sweetness with 75% fewer calories from sugar!
• Truvía® Brown Sugar Blend is a delicious blend of Truvía® Natural Sweetener and brown sugar. It has the texture, moisture and taste you love about brown sugar, with 75% fewer calories. Just a ½ cup of Truvía® Brown Sugar Blend provides the same sweetness as one cup of brown sugar, with 75% fewer calories from brown sugar.
• A 40 ct. box of Truvía® Natural Sweetener retails for about $4.99, a 24 oz. Truvía® Baking Blend retails for about $7.99, and a 16 oz. Truvía® Brown Sugar Blend retails for about $6.99.
