Your questions, answered
How many servings are in the 800g bag?
About 100. Lakanto's label serving is 2 teaspoons (8g), with 0 calories and 8g of carbohydrate that is all erythritol. It is the same Classic blend as our 235g and 454g bags, in the largest size.
Can I use Lakanto Classic exactly like white sugar?
For measuring, yes: 1 cup of Lakanto Classic replaces 1 cup of granulated sugar. The crystals are a little coarser than caster sugar, so for meringues, icing or smooth custards many bakers grind it fine in a spice grinder first.
What is actually in it?
Just two ingredients: erythritol and monk fruit extract. Erythritol gives the sugar-like bulk and texture, and the monk fruit extract lifts the sweetness to match sugar spoon for spoon. The bag is Non-GMO Project Verified.
Does Lakanto Classic fit a keto or low-sugar diet?
Yes. It has no sugar, and Lakanto counts it as zero net carbs because the carbohydrate is erythritol. Consumption of foods or drinks containing erythritol instead of sugar contributes to the reduction in blood glucose rise after their consumption compared to sugar-containing foods or drinks.
Why won't it dissolve in my iced coffee?
Erythritol dissolves quickly in hot drinks but slowly in cold ones. Stir Lakanto Classic into a splash of hot water or coffee first, then add ice; some people also notice a light cooling feel on the tongue, which is normal for erythritol.
How much can I have in a day?
There is no set daily limit, but excessive consumption may produce laxative effects, as with all erythritol and polyol sweeteners. If you are new to it, spread larger amounts, such as a batch of bakes, over a few days.
800g bag or the Classic packets?
The 800g bag is for regular bakers and households that sweeten every cuppa. Lakanto Classic Packets (30 sachets) are single servings for a desk drawer or handbag, and if you also bake with brown sugar we stock Lakanto Golden in 800g too.
