Crescent Mapleine Imitation Maple Flavoring 2oz Bottle (Pack of 3)

I bake a lot with sucralose as the sweetener, and my baked goods rival sugar-sweetened ones all the time (I use double the sweetener, despite the company's claiming that it measures cup for cup like sugar--it may, but the end product isn't as sweet or satisfying as the goodies made with sugar--but double the amount, and you have something that satisfies your sweet tooth and tastes as good as the real thing). The only drawback is that I used to bake with brown sugar, and I miss that richer flavor. Enter, Mapleine. Add a teaspoon of that to your cookies, cakes, sweet breads, and voila! It gives that rich flavor you were missing by using something other than brown sugar. Give it a try!

Reviewing Mapleine is like reviewing oxygen. It's good stuff, especially if you can't afford genuine maple syrup. Basically essential in your kitchen, unless you are a Vermonter or Quebecois with a good supplier.

I have used it for years and cannot always find it in stores. I make the “thin” syrup ( that is, with just boiling water, I don’t boil it down to a thicker syrup). It tastes so much better than the artificial syrups — no, it’s not quite the “real thing, “ but is a definite next best and so much cheaper. I only make waffles once a month, so one bottle of Mapleine lasts me for years.

This was the syrup I grew up with, since it was what my mom made. As a result, natural maple syrup tastes too bitter and robust to me, and I hate how sticky and thick Aunt Jemima and Mrs. Butterworths' syrups are. I love homemade Mapleine syrup because it's thinner, so it can soak into every pancake and every crevice of a waffle. Maple extract doesn't taste as good, either.It might be nostalgia, but if you haven't tried Mapleine I really recommend giving it a try.

I have never bought artificial syrup because mapeline is the best alternative to real syrup! I like to make mine with brown sugar and it’s delicious!

My kids have always loved my homemade syrup! Now they can make their own. Love Mapeline! Have used it for years!

Cheaper on Amazon at time of purchasing. Getting hard to fund Maplein extract.

I do not enjoy the woody after notes of pure maple syrup so was very pleased to discover mapleine. The flavor it produces is what I am used to without the woody after notes. And it's a great value over pure maple syrup. Never quite understood the draw of the pure maple syrup after I tried it.
