dmburk · 10-08-2012, 04:41 PM

HappyHappyJoyJoy · 10-08-2012, 04:45 PM

Aren't they amazing?? I just love them!

princessmommy · 10-08-2012, 04:53 PM

Peppermint syrup? That would be Perfect for the Holidays!

I tried some but had to throw them out. I found some sf syrup at a local store that was very similar to davinci syrups (had not tried any yet) I was leary of the ingredients but tried it. I a immediatly got a headache, and felt ill. Woke up the next day and my chest is covered in little red bumps. I just threw them out. I was hoping I could do some artifical sweetners but it is looking like I can't.
I only used 1tsp in the whole batch.
They tasted great!

Cream Cheese Clouds - My variation - wowzers.

princessmommy · 10-09-2012, 04:56 AM

Thanks Dorcas! I wonder if those little bottle of flavorings by the spices at walmart would work too?

avid · 10-09-2012, 05:05 AM

As a cream cheese lover I looked up the recipe link and was astounded to see
"3/4 cup of granulated splenda"
Can that be right? It seems like an awful lot of splenda for just one 8 oz. pack of cream cheese?

Annabel Lee · 10-09-2012, 05:19 AM

I only use 1/2 cup of splenda and I find that is sweet enough.
I just made a batch of eggnog flavor clouds dusted with freshly ground nutmeg.
Absolutely decadent!
I also make banana, pumpkin, and raspberry.
I am thinking of trying coffee or peppermint next time.

princessmommy · 10-09-2012, 05:30 AM

I want to find something Other then splenda.

Meli-Mel · 10-09-2012, 06:06 AM

I want to make these so bad, but am so scared that I will love them too much!

princessmommy · 10-09-2012, 06:32 AM

Meli to me they are like little frozen cheesecake ice creams. Mine have a little after taste due to the splenda so i need to use something else next time

Sounds interesting.....what is the sweetener in that?
Does it add any additional carbs?

According to my food tracker, they are 1.3g each. I don't know what the sweetener is, but I figured it would have minimal impact considering the original recipe called for much more Splenda. I don't like things super sweet, though, so keep that in mind.

They work great. I use both the McCormick brand and the Watkins.

I use about 10 drops of Ez-Sweetz

I also tried a half a pouch of that new flavor pouch that you add to frosting.
I used chocolate marshmallow last time. It doesn't have a sweetener in it do you have to still add something sweet.

Ginaaaaaa · 10-09-2012, 12:51 PM

I'm going to try it with Capella flavor drops. Not sure how much I should use though.

SkeeterN · 10-09-2012, 01:00 PM

How frozen hard are they? I do not like very hard things.

They are hard and can be a little difficult to bite down on.
I guess you could leave them out for a few minutes. I make my clouds small so that they don't require much biting.

millergirl1976 · 10-09-2012, 03:40 PM

I have never tried these. This thread is giving me inspiration! I like the SF pudding idea. Would Davinci syrups work as well?

Yup, that is what I use, as long as they are SF.

I take them out of the freezer after about 30 min and store them in the fridge.
I think they even taste better from the fridge.

ChristineCQ · 10-10-2012, 03:33 AM

I forgot to mention that I also halve the butter in my version because I like a stronger cream cheese flavor. The white chocolate pudding mix really enhances the "cheesecake" similarity!

Snoangel · 10-10-2012, 01:46 PM

I found these Duncan Hines frosting creations. They are little packs of flavor with no sugar and only 2 carbs per package (in the frosting isle)
I added the cinnamon roll flavor to my cream cheese clouds and WOW!!! They were incredible!

I also bought chocolate mint, and chocolate almond.

They also have cotton candy, white choc raspberry, bubble gum, cherry vanilla, strawberry shortcake, caramel, chocolate marshmellow, orange creme, and mocha

Soobee · 10-11-2012, 04:41 AM

These frosting mixes were discussed on another thread. They sound really interesting. CaliOkieGal4now added them to brownies and some other desserts.

I put so much more SF syrup than I usually do.
How much do you use, or do you add unsweetened flavoring?
I could try that.
They are not frozen yet, perhaps the will taste stronger when they are.
I added some green and blue food coloring to them and they look great.

Ginaaaaaa · 10-11-2012, 12:56 PM

I just got my Capella drops, peppermint, apple pie and banana split. I can't wait to try them in these!!
