First Impressions – The Initial Sukrin Reviews Are In!
After months and months of hard work, in the beginning of Summer 2015 we were finally ready to launch the Sukrin line of products on the US market! On June 1st, 2015, we opened the doors to our virtual store – and we started sending out product samples to test if the market would love these products as much as we do. The initial verdict is now in….and the Sukrin reviews are unanimous: Sukrin IS loved as much by the market as by us!
Take a look at some of the excerpts of reviews below – and click the links to read the fantastic, informative, humorous writings of some real spectacular food bloggers:
Fluffy Chix Cook:
“When the boxes arrived and we unloaded our “really big haul,” we couldn’t believe our luck, so MANY products to test! But we did have skepticism. We worried our blood sugar would go cra cra and that everything looked too good to be true. So we tested each product, and none of the low carb sugar subs gave us a spike! The milk chocolate did give Susie a tiny spike of about 20 points, but that is congruent with the spike she sees when eating chocolate. And each low carb, super low calorie sweetener and fiber syrup tasted great! In all, we are stoked that baking as we know it will change from here out. Sukrin USA erythritol based sweeteners and fiber syrups are game changers. The Fluffys give the Sukrin family of zero calorie sweeteners five enthusiastic wings up (equivalent to 5 stars)!”
“Did we mention that we love how Sukrin Milk Chocolate Bars taste? Delish! Just like we remember the real Swiss chocolates tasting that Dad bought at Alfred’s Deli when we were kids. Low carb keto Sukrin Milk Chocolate is creamy, silky smooth, and has a great melt factor on both your hands and your mouth! 😀”
Keto Adapted:
“I love having healthy options and the more the merrier in my opinion. I have really liked all that I have tried so Sukrin is another great option for the keto lifestyle.”
Low Carb Yum:
“There is a great new sweetener available in the US that comes from Europe and it’s going to allow certain homemade sweets to be possible again. I’m talking about the Sukrin line of sweeteners which includes two great syrup sweeteners. One is a clear fiber syrup that can be used similar to corn syrup. The other is a dark syrup that is the perfect substitute for honey and molasses. I’ll be providing a review of the syrups in future posts. This low carb gluten free zucchini apple fritter bread recipe used three of the Sukrin powder/granular sweeteners. All three of these natural origin sweeteners are fabulous as well as non-GMO!”
“The Sukrin Gold is amazing because it looks and feels just like REAL brown sugar. I’m not sure how they did it, but the ingredients are listed as Natural sweetener erythritol (polyol), tagatose, glycerol, malt extract (gluten-free) and steviol glycosides.”
“If you love the convenience of a bread mix, but just don’t have the time or ingredients to make your own from scratch, I highly recommend checking out the low carb bread mixes made by Sukrin.”
Mom, Can I Have That?:
“I AM ABSOLUTELY THRILLED to do this post detailing a new low carb product line now available in the United States called Sukrin. Sukrin products are made in Norway by Funksjonell Mat (Functional Foods). They originate from natural, NON-GMO food and are certified gluten-free. Sukrin is popular in Skandinavia and the UK and it’s products are rapidly spreading throughout Europe becoming the low carb product of choice for many Low Carbers, Diabetics and those in the Paleo and Keto communities. Luckily, we in the U.S. now have access to these popular products thanks to Sukrin USA.”
“Whoa!
This bread is amazing.
It’s right in my wheelhouse with it’s chewy, nutty texture and flavor. It tastes much like a good European style whole grain or muesli bread – well, because it is! Except it’s low carb, gluten-free, dairy-free and nut free. What? Yes!”
All Day I Dream About Food
“To enhance that flavour even further, I used half Sukrin Gold, a low carb brown sugar replacement. As you know, I favour Swerve as my sweetener of choice, but Sukrin USA asked if I would test out their products and also host a small giveaway for my readers. Since so many of you ask about different sweeteners, I feel strongly that I need to test them out myself. Sukrin Gold is mostly erythritol, with some tagatose, glycerol, malt extract (gluten-free) and sterol glycosides to give it the colour and flavour of brown sugar. I thought it worked very well in the blondies and I think it could be very useful in one’s arsenal of low carb tools.”
“Sukrin also carries two varieties of fiber syrups made from isomaltooligosaccharides, which are sweet-tasting pre-biotic fibers. I think these could be very useful sweeteners but I recommend them with reservations. For me, the jury is still out on whether or not they affect blood sugar levels. I am part of a number of online diabetes support groups and some members have indicated that isomalt syrup gives them a spike. I tested on myself a couple of times and had varied results, with mostly very little increase but one seeming spike (which could, admittedly, have been a fluke of my meter or other circumstances). At this point, I think I will use the syrups sparingly – I am excited to see what they can do for my recipes but think anyone with diabetes should test them carefully on themselves.”
“One thing I was really impressed with from Sukrin were the bread mixes. Although I am inclined to make my own low carb bread from scratch most of the time, I think these are a really great option for a store-bought mix. Possibly the best low carb option for store-bought bread out there (please note that they are not grain-free). Sukrin USA also sells a number of other low carb products, and all in all, I’d give it a low carb thumbs up. Definitely worth checking out.”
Thank you all for taking time out of your busy schedules for trying the Sukrin products – and thank you for the rave Sukrin reviews!
