INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE WHILE COOKING

                           You can use Sugar Free in either pellet or powder form, depending on your preference. 1 Sugar Free pellet is equal in taste to 1 spoonful of Sugar Free powder concentrate or 1 teaspoon of refined sugar. While using Sugar Free powder, ensure that you use the measuring spoon ( level and not heaped ) provided with the pack. Always keep the spoon dry.
                            A handy cooking-tip: When you use Sugar Free pellets for semi-solid dessert preparations like custard, jelly, etc., always crush the pellets ( between two spoons) and add the powder to the mixture, stirring well.
                             Add Sugar Free to your preparation only after you have removed the same from the direct heat of the gas stove/microwave, because Aspartame may lose some of its sweetness due to prolonged heating.
