Recipes & Tips
A little goes a long way. Zilch tastes around 3× sweeter than sugar, so just use a third of what you'd normally reach for.
How Much to Use
- Hot drinks (tea, coffee): 1/4 – 1/3 teaspoon
- Smoothies & shakes: 1/3 – 1/2 teaspoon
- Yoghurt & porridge: 1/4 teaspoon
- Baking: start with 1/3 of what you'd use in sugar, adjust to taste
