Eight packets of Splenda (sucralose) are roughly equivalent in sweetness to about 2 teaspoons of sugar. While Splenda contains no calories and is significantly sweeter than sugar, the conversion can vary slightly based on personal taste preferences. Generally, this ratio provides a good starting point for substituting Splenda for sugar in recipes or beverages.
1/2 cup of spenda
i have a splenda bag and they say that it is a 1:1 ratio, meaning 1 tablespoon sugar =1 tablespoon splenda, and that it can be used to replace sugar in any recipe. By volume it's the same ratio, but is different by weight, because splenda is lighter.
1/2 cup
There are about 192 grams of carbohydrate in 1 cup of Splenda Brown Sugar. That's about the same as regular sugar, but you only use half as much of the Splenda Brown Sugar for the same amount of sweetening in your recipe.

When substituting Splenda for sugar, the general guideline is to use half the amount of Splenda as you would sugar since Splenda is much sweeter. For a recipe calling for one and a half cups of sugar, you would need approximately three-quarters of a cup of Splenda. It's best to check the specific product guidelines, as different forms of Splenda may have slightly varying conversion ratios.
No. Regular sugar turns to fat, which isn't good for any thing. I also, regular sugar elevates blood sugar and if too much is eaten you'll get a sugar rush
Identical to ordinary sugar. However Splenda tastes more bitter to me than sweet, I won't us any.
It depends on what you want the mix to be of and how swet you want it to be.
Many artificial sweeteners, including Splenda, contain some sugar as a bulking agent, so there is possibly some affect on blood glucose. The amount is much less than if you were using straight sugar. A 1g Splenda packet is 99% sugar, so about 1g of sugar. This could possibly raise your blood glucose by as much as 25 mg/dL (based on a rough calculation: 1g in 4L of blood), so if you are using ten packets on your cereal and coffee in the morning, that could be a cause of rising blood sugar. There are some available without sugar, but you have to read the label; dextrose is D-glucose.
Yes, you can have sugar substitutes such as splenda. Much better for a low carb diet.
Without some form of sweetener, cookies would be called crackers or biscuits. Options besides sugar or Splenda include honey, molasses, Stevia and the various "artificial sweeteners."
