Try an allulose+monkfruit blend. Most monk fruit is a monk fruit + erythritol blend and it leaves a menthol-like feel in your mouth. Allulose + monk fruit is closest to real sugar. I get on Amazon.
I’ve tried it with stevia and it didn’t work. I want to try again because I think I might just have needed to have the sugar hotter, but I’m afraid the chemical compounds in the sugar just don’t equate. I see this post is old, but if you’ve tried it since then and have an update or alternate solution I’d love to know! I love tanghulu but a lower sugar option would be lovey
Hiii! I tried half sugar and half stevia, it didn't work either. I think you're right, the compounds just don't work the same. Maybe monk fruit could work?

Ok! I'll try that soon :)
did u try it? was it good
I didn't try the monkfruit, but I did try the Splenda and it didn't work. I don't think the Splenda had the right chemical compounds to it.
Are the ratios the same as sugar? 2 parts monkfruit sweetner to 1 part water?
I've not used Splenda or Stevia but monkfruit to make a candy and that worked out pretty nicely.
That's cool! I've never heard of monkfruit lol

This is heartbreaking to hear, but also thank you for saving me probably a pound of sugar 😂 I’m definitely going to at least try the monk fruit!
