Sweeteners:<\/strong>
\nSucanat \/ richer flavor, darker color = Brown Sugar
\nSucanat with Honey \/ light, sweet flavor, lighter color = White Sugar
\nPowdered Sucanat with Honey = Powdered Sugar<\/p>\n

Substitute sucanat and sucanat with honey one for one in recipes calling for brown sugar (sucanat), white sugar (sucanat with honey) or some of both. In some recipes, such as Oatmeal Cookies, I\u2019ll use all sucanat for both the white sugar and brown sugar because I like the richer flavor of the sucanat.<\/p>\n

Sucanat with honey may be powdered in a blender or the Tribest Personal Blender to use as powdered sugar for icings. The icing will be a light golden color. DO NOT USE YOUR GRAIN MILL TO POWDER THE SUCANAT WITH HONEY!<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Honey:<\/strong>
\nWhen substituting honey for sugar in baked goods such as cakes and quick bread, you usually want to decrease the honey by at least 1\/2.<\/p>\n

In yeast breads, I usually use equal amounts of honey for sugar and just increase the flour a little<\/p>\n
