A Delightful Sugar Substitute for Guilt-Free Indulgence

Reviewed in the United States on December 11, 2023

Flavor Name: Classic WhiteSize: 16 Ounce (Pack of 1)Verified Purchase

Lakanto Classic Monk Fruit Sweetener with Erythritol has become a game-changer in my quest for a healthier sugar alternative. This zero-calorie, keto diet-friendly sweetener has proven to be a versatile and satisfying replacement for traditional sugar, and its unique combination with monk fruit and erythritol sets it apart, particularly in its appeal for smoothies.

One of the most notable attributes of Lakanto Classic is its ability to mimic the sweetness of sugar without the associated calories or carbohydrates. The monk fruit and erythritol blend achieves a delicious sweetness that closely resembles sugar, making it an excellent choice for those looking to cut back on their sugar intake without sacrificing flavor.

One of the standout features is the absence of the aftertaste commonly associated with some sugar substitutes, particularly those containing aspartame. Lakanto Classic imparts a clean, natural sweetness without any lingering or artificial flavors, enhancing the overall enjoyment of my favorite beverages and recipes.

The versatility of this sweetener is commendable, and its fine, granulated texture makes it easy to incorporate into various recipes. Whether I'm baking a keto-friendly treat or sweetening my morning coffee, Lakanto Classic dissolves seamlessly, ensuring an even distribution of sweetness.

As a devoted smoothie enthusiast, I've found Lakanto Classic to be a perfect companion for my blends. It effortlessly enhances the natural sweetness of fruits without overpowering their flavors. The zero-net-carb feature aligns well with a keto lifestyle, allowing me to indulge in delicious and guilt-free smoothies.

The resealable bag ensures the longevity of the sweetener, and the scoop provided makes it easy to measure the desired amount accurately. The packaging is practical and user-friendly, reflecting the thoughtful design of Lakanto products.

In conclusion, Lakanto Classic Monk Fruit Sweetener with Erythritol has become a staple in my kitchen for its exceptional sweetness, versatility, and keto-friendly attributes. Whether in my morning coffee, baked goods, or energizing smoothies, it consistently delivers a delightful sugar substitute without compromising on taste. Highly recommended for those seeking a healthier and enjoyable alternative to traditional sugar, especially if you appreciate a sweetener without the aspartame aftertaste.

Not sweet

Reviewed in the United States on October 16, 2024

Flavor Name: Classic PowderSize: 16 Ounce (Pack of 1)Verified Purchase

***edited review 10/25/24. The Company reached out to me after I submitted my original review of the blue bag and provided a full refund. I believe they are an excellent company. (I had also purchased Lakanto’s red bag of granulated monk/erythritol and it tastes sweet like regular sugar.) I hope they will try to reformulate the powdered version to make it taste sweet.

Original Review: This review is for the Powdered Lakanto (light blue bag). The good: no aftertaste, not bitter. The bad: not sweet. I feel I wasted my money.

Don't listen to flawed research - it's a great product

Reviewed in the United States on August 9, 2024

Flavor Name: GoldenSize: 48 Ounce (Pack of 1)Verified Purchase

I get really upset with all the unethical, incompetent researchers out there. The studies that suggested that erythritol (and hence this product) is dangerous have been utterly debunked. These so-called 'scientists' are wanting attention, funding and to be published.
Please read the analyses and papers that show these findings to be utter garbage. The same supposed scientists have also just published a paper to launch a similar attack on xylitol, and it uses the same flawed arguments and has similar errors as the one attacking erythritol.

This Lakanto product is safe and has FDA approval and tastes really, really great. The texture is also superior.
We've been buying it for years and our family's cardio-vascular systems have been tested thoroughly and we are in perfect shape.

Tastes great, but...

Flavor Name: BrownSize: 16 Ounce (Pack of 1)Verified Purchase

Trying this product is how I learned I'm sensitive to sugar alcohols! Very uncomfortable side effects after consumption. I agree with everyone that it tastes great and is a great substitute for brown sugar, but only if you aren't sensitive to sugar alcohols. Trust me, you'll know if you are soon after trying it!

Excellent Alternative to Sugar

Reviewed in the United States on November 13, 2024

Flavor Name: Organic ClassicSize: 16 Ounce (Pack of 1)Verified Purchase

i’ve been using this product for years, but I can’t always get it in the supermarket or I forget to purchase it so buying it from Amazon has made it easy. I live the taste; sweet with no chemical aftertaste.
I primarily use it for my coffee, but will also toss it in lieu of sugar for baking or to add a bit of sweetness to any recipe that calls for sugar.

Natural sweetener that does not affect blood sugar

Reviewed in Canada on September 1, 2023

Flavor Name: GoldenSize: 16 Ounce (Pack of 1)Verified Purchase

Yes, it’s expensive. Most clean food is these days. BUT if you’re doing a no-sugar, anti-inflammatory diet, or diabetic, or just cutting down on sugar, it’s a natural sweetener that does not affect blood sugar negatively and it really helped me through a period in which I had to cut out all sugars in my diet (I was working with a naturopath to heal digestive issues in my gut). It’s SLIGHTLY less sweet in ratio than regular sugar, but it’s pretty close to 1:1. Very worth it for me. I like the golden one because it has more of a maple-y/brown sugar taste.
