Can anyone tell me what a "packet" of sugar substitute contains (Atkins recipes). In Australia it comes in little tablets equal to 1 tsp and the bulk packet (500gm). How much is a "packet" 10 gm, 20 gms, 4 tblsp. Also Atkins products not readily available here. Is the Bake Mix predominantly soy flour? This I can get but I don't know the carb count for it and it's not in Atkins new carb counter book. Any ideas how soy flour compares with wheat flour on a carb for carb basis?

1 packet of artificial sweetener is equivalent to 2 teaspoons of pourable Splenda.

Soy Flour is 21.7 grams of carb per cup (full fat)
White flour is 95.4 grams of carb per cup. :eek:

HTH!
