What Is Erythritol?
Erythritol is a natural sweetener that we can’t metabolize [*], which means it tastes like sugar without spiking our blood sugar. Found in fruits and vegetables, it’s 70% as sweet as sugar.
Erythritol is part of the family of sugar alcohols, which are found in nature, but it is unique compared to others such as sorbitol or maltitol. Erythritol is the only one that has a glycemic index of zero and is easier to digest.
Erythritol has:
✅ Zero calories
✅ Zero grams net carbs
✅ Zero glycemic index
Erythritol is the perfect natural sweetener and sugar replacement!
What Is Besti?
Besti is Wholesome Yum’s line of natural, sugar-free sweeteners – they are Nature’s Sugar Replacement. We carry premium, non-GMO pure erythritol and allulose, as well as our signature Besti monk fruit blends with erythritol or allulose, for easy 1:1 sugar alternatives in granulated and powdered form.
Why Use Powdered Erythritol Sweetener?
Erythritol is nature’s sugar replacement. It has the main benefits of using powdered sugar…
✅ Tastes like powdered sugar – with no aftertaste!
✅ Sprinkles like powdered sugar
…But unlike sugar, there is no blood sugar spike and crash, fat storage, tooth decay, or other negative effects of sugar.
What Does Powdered Erythritol Taste Like?
Powdered erythritol tastes like powdered sugar! Many sugar alternatives have a chemical or bitter aftertaste, but erythritol does not.
Some people say there is a mild cooling sensation, which is not unpleasant and not usually noticeable when using it in cooking and baking.
Is Erythritol A Good Powdered Sugar Replacement For Me?
Yes, erythritol is a versatile natural powdered sugar replacement for everyone! Whether you are trying to cut carbs, lose weight, or simply reducing sugar intake, erythritol is an excellent sugar-free sweetener to use.
In addition to taste and texture, our erythritol ticks all the boxes for a healthier powdered sugar replacement:
How To Use Powdered Erythritol Sugar-Free Sweetener
Use Besti powdered erythritol sweetener to replace powdered sugar in your favorite sweet recipes, including desserts, baked goods, drinks, sauces, and more!
It tastes and bakes the same way sugar does.
Powdered erythritol has the same consistency as powdered sugar.
Powdered erythritol works beautifully anywhere you need a smooth texture, such as frosting, sauce, glaze, dressing, sprinkling, and most other uses for a powdered sugar replacement. Here are some alternatives for other uses:
- For regular baking, use granulated erythritol sweetener instead.
- For uses where you’d need the sweetener to dissolve, try using allulose sweetener instead.
- For a 1:1 powdered sugar replacement without doing conversions, use our Besti powdered monk fruit sweetener blend instead.
Because erythritol is 70% as sweet as sugar, you’ll need 1 1/3 cups powdered erythritol to replace each cup of powdered sugar:
