Roll the drum and throw some confetti! We’ve been waiting to be able to announce this for far too long… our stevia sweeteners are available at www.trimhealthymama.com!
When the brand of stevia we promoted in the book suddenly changed formula we got so many messages from mamas saying their treats were no longer as yummy. Ahhh! We knew we had to find our own safe, sweet source that we (and all our other Trim Healthy Mamas) could rely on for a good sweet flavor long term. For months we scouted the globe determined to find the best tasting and most minimally processed stevia out there. Many… far too many bitter stevia brands got a quick taste then went straight to the garbage – uggh!
We were close to despair that nothing would fit the bill when we discovered one that made us actually smile and smack our lips! We’ve been using this stevia in our own homes now for a few months and we’re loving it! Even our husbands enjoy the taste and they were hard to please.
It is organic, of the highest purity and has a nice rounded sweetness without that bitter high end taste most stevia is known for. One of our husbands flew to the area where this stevia is grown and documented the entire process from leaf to powder. Absolutely no bleaching is involved nor are any strange or unhealthy chemicals used. The leaves are soaked in water and the end result is a fine white and ultra-sweet powder perfect for our all day sippers, shakes, smoothies and Greek yogurt etc.
In fact, our stevia is so minimally processed, it has not even been granulated which means it remains as a fine white powder. – like a dust. When you receive your pouch, tap it on your counter a few times then zip the seal before opening as the powder likes to plume a little when first opened. You’ll find a tiny spoon (1/32 of a tsp.) inside the pouch. This is your “doonk” spoon. When adding the powder to your drink or recipe with your doonk, turn spoon downward and gently tap it on the side of your glass or bowl as you empty it out. This will allow the stevia to flow out of the spoon. You can watch a video on our website about the art of “doonking” that will go up in just a few day's time. We had way too much fun with that! Don’t put the doonk back in the pouch as you’ll have to dig around in the white powder to find it. Find your doonk its own special home somewhere else in your kitchen.
Along with the pure extract we are also excited to launch THM Sweet Blend which is a completely non GMO baking blend – a mixture of our organic stevia and non GMO erythritol – no other sneaky ingredients added. It is sweeter than sugar and even sweeter than most other store bought stevia blends like Truvia. We know our mamas are on tight budgets so we did our very best to make it affordable for the everyday mama to buy a full pound. If you are used to using 4 tsp. of another blend like Truvia in your Muffin in a Mug, try just 3 tsp. of our Sweet Blend and see if that is just about right.
