I stopped eating refined sugar a of couple years ago and agave has allowed me to have sweet foods again because it does not cause my blood sugar to change excessively (aka it is a "low glycemic index" food). Modhava has a really nice product, and Amazon has the cheapest prices I've found (and I've looked!). You can use it in baking, but don't use as much because it is sweeter than "regular" (granulated white cane) sugar. Use about 2/3 as much for the same sweetness, down to as little as half as much. It has a very neutral taste so your food won't taste any different with agave substituted. However, it is a liquid (obviously) so it adds a bit of moisture to your recipes and for baked goods you may have to reduce another liquid in the recipe slightly to compensate. For every cup of agave you may need to take out about 1/4 cup of other liquid to achieve the same result - but the rule won't always hold so experiment. In drinks or homemade ice cream (a great use!) the added moisture doesn't matter at all! I am sure agave is going to become extremely popular, it is such a fantastic, healthy, delicious, convenient sugar replacement. Enjoy! (Review by Anne O) Read more.
