Ok, here's the scoop: I'm looking to find out how many tsp are in 1 pkg of splenda......I bought the box, and all the recipies seem to have pkg. measures.

I've tried making a few things, just by guestemating but they haven't turned out.
Would 20-25 pkgs be roughly 1 cup? 1/2 cup?
Help?!?

I am not sure what to tell you. I do know the loose box measures different than the packets. Its lighter and fluffier. I think you will have to experiment.

Oh also, Sams carries both the packets and the loose form.

Good Luck!

Thanks, Mals1 !! I'm up here in the boonies of Canada (Northern Alberta). I wasn't able to find the packets, just the loose boxes so far. We don't have Sam's here, Our Walmart just got a food section, perhaps I'll find it there.......

Yes Walmart does carry it! At least ours does.

Good Luck! I love the stuff. I have been using it for a couple of years now.

1 packet of splenda has the sweetness of 2 t sugar. The bulk bag of splenda has added fillers so you can measure it as if it was sugar.

So, I'm thinking that you would add 2 teaspoons of the bulk for each packet the recipe calls for. Does that make sense? Anyone else have an idea?

Have you tried checking on the Splenda Website? They might have it there or you can e-mail them your question.
