Cargill has launched Truvia Baking Blend, a combination of its Truvia-branded stevia high intensity sweetener and sugar with 75% fewer calories than sugar.
The product, which bakes and browns like sugar, provides 190 calories per half-cup, but the same sweetness as one cup of sugar with 760 calories.
Cooks are advised to use half as much when substituting for sugar in recipes.
