And it doesn’t stop there: sugar makes up the amount of solids in the preparations, which influences their texture. That is: yes, it is necessary to consider before replacing the common sugar with the sweetener. Sometimes, reducing a cup of sugar won’t make much of a difference in the recipe; I always do this with simple cakes, like orange, chocolate, among others, and it works very well. But sometimes the substitution may not work and the result is a kitchen disaster when trying to prepare a simple pudding.
