From Splendid Desserts by Jennifer Eloff; 1993; ISBN 1-895292-30-1; Information about Splenda(r) Granular Note - Splenda(r) has been available in Canada for several years and is now available in the United States. I believe Splenda(r) now has a website and I've read that the product is available through the internet as well as in several supermarkets. Splenda(r) (sucralose) is chemically inert and does not break down as it passes through the body. It can be used more or less measure for measure like sugar, in other words, 1 teaspoon of Splenda(r) tastes like 1 teaspoon of sugar. 1 teaspoon (5 mL or 0.5 grams) of Splenda(r) contains 2 calories (8 kJ); 0.5 grams carbohydrate; 6 mg sucralose; 0 g fat; 0 g protein.
