Thank you for your feedback! This article is definitely about alternatives to cane sugar for those who prefer the flavor of other sweeteners, rather than non-nutritive sweeteners. As you've noted, non-nutritive sweeteners can be very challenging to bake with, and it can take months to perfect a single recipe. For this reason, we've put more focus on helping people learn how to reduce the sugars in their breads, muffins, and other baked goods, which allows people to control their intake of refined sugars without experimenting with complicated substitutions. For example, you can remove the honey from our 100% Whole Wheat Sandwich Bread, and while it won't get quite as brown, the yeast will still do fine and the resulting loaf with still be delicious. (You can try eliminating the sugars from lots of whole wheat breads, most of them turn out just fine!) We totally understand how frustrating it is to have to change the way you eat due to health concerns, especially when a lot of your previous favorites aren't accessible anymore. We've always got a pipeline of recipes that we're working on, ranging from the healthful to the decadent, and quite a few of them are for our many customers with special dietary needs. If you have any questions about baking with whole grains and reducing the sugar in any of our recipes, please feel free to reach out to our Baker's Hotline at 855-371-BAKE (2253). We're always happy to help you find a baking solution that works for you. Kat@KAF
