Chef’s Secret

Sugar-free syrups can be less stable under high heat in baking compared to sugar-based syrups, leading to different browning and texture.

Substitutions

Best Match

Maple Syrup (Pure)

1:1

For natural flavor and texture where sugar is acceptable.

Honey

1:1

Natural sweetener with distinct floral notes, different texture.

Agave Nectar

1:1

Sweeter than sugar, thinner consistency, often vegan.

Erythritol (granular)

1:1

Dry sugar substitute for baking, won't provide syrup consistency.

Buying Guide

Check the type of sweetener used and any added ingredients. Some sugar alcohols can cause digestive upset.
