No | Price you paid?: $8.99 | Rating: 1    Pros: It has a nice looking can.... Cons: The price, the taste, the results. Vile, horrible, nasty, gross taste. I can't advise anyone to buy this. We tried it in three different recipes and tossed it into the garbage. If you love a strong soy flavor you might like this. daypassdel Junior LCF Member Registered: June 2002 Location: Western Canada Posts: 49 Review Date: Mon December 1, 2003 Would you recommend the product? No | Price you paid?: $15.99 | Rating: 1    Pros: none Cons: Expensive, repulsive taste Expensive, tried 4 or 5 recipes, threw all of them out,along with the bake mix. Don't waste your money! DeadlyAccurate Senior LCF Member Registered: January 2003 Location: Ft. Worth, TX Posts: 108 Review Date: Tue December 2, 2003 Would you recommend the product? Yes | Price you paid?: $8.96 | Rating: 6    Pros: Makes good pancakes Cons: Expensive. Odd flavor that may turn off people. OK, I'm going to be an odd one out here. I actually like the Atkins pancakes. They taste like the outside of french toast to me. I also like the bake mix as a coating for cheesesticks. Still, enough people dislike the taste of the mix that I recommend buying only a single can at first. jenniferg Senior LCF Member Registered: May 2003 Location: Atlanta, GA Posts: 185 Review Date: Tue December 2, 2003 Would you recommend the product? No | Price you paid?: None indicated | Rating: 2    Pros: none Cons: doesn't taste good, strong soy flavor I did not like the taste of the panckes I made with this baking mix. I tried it in a couple of recipes and substituted it when breading chicken and still did not like it. I do NOT recommend this. Review Date: Wed December 3, 2003 Would you recommend the product? No | Price you paid?: None indicated | Rating: 3    Pros: Gives you hope that baking is possible Cons: The taste.... ewww I actually made some decent chocolate muffins. They were edible but not good. mickyzzzzz05 Senior LCF Member Registered: September 2003 Location: NE Iowa Posts: 902 Review Date: Sat December 6, 2003 Would you recommend the product? Yes | Price you paid?: $12.00 | Rating: 7    Pros: a good substitute for small amounts of flour Cons: strong distinctive flavor I use this in small amounts for coating some items before frying, sometimes with ground almonds and sometimes alone. I like having a convenient flour type product! jvryden Senior LCF Member Registered: September 2003 Location: kansas city 'burbs Posts: 627 Review Date: Sat December 6, 2003 Would you recommend the product? Yes | Price you paid?: $9.00 | Rating: 7    Pros: to sub for sml amnt of flour Cons: soy I use this all the time in baking and cooking...in small amounts usually and with other "flours" like almond flour. I haven't tried any of the recipes on the container, but have had success with recipes from cookbooks and this board.

Yes | Price you paid?: $12.00 | Rating: 6    Pros: Cons: I made some cookies with this product this weekend and they turned out great. Divided Sky Junior LCF Member Registered: January 2004 Location: Maine Posts: 7 Review Date: Sun January 18, 2004 Would you recommend the product? No | Price you paid?: None indicated | Rating: 2    Pros: A sign that the low-carb industry realizes we really miss this stuff Cons: Those with taste buds and noses that work will be disappointed Here's my advice to anyone starting a low carb diet and thumbing through recipes: If you ever see the word, MOCK, or quotes around a major ingredient, such as, delicious "pizza," etc, be REAL careful. A small percentage of people can get used to eating a pizza on a giant freakin' mushroom, or using egg batter to make "crunchy chicken tenders," but the vast majority of people are used to the real thing, and will reject these mock substitutes right away. After trying the Atkins Bake Mix I said to myself, "hey, you're just not going to be able to have cakes, breads or anything that needs flour for a while - just shut up and deal with it." But I can see some people liking this. If you love munching on giant bars of soy packed with protein, or if you dislike the taste of pancakes or bread made with flour, you'll LOVE this bake mix! fitsnips Junior LCF Member Registered: January 2004 Posts: 2 Review Date: Thu January 29, 2004 Would you recommend the product? Yes | Price you paid?: $12.00 | Rating: 7    Pros: Good for when you need a little flour sub Cons: just a little off taste I think these reviews are a little harsh. It was not bad compaired to a lot of things I have had. Kariann71 Junior LCF Member Registered: January 2004 Location: Michigan Posts: 54 Review Date: Sat February 7, 2004 Would you recommend the product? Yes | Price you paid?: $12.00 | Rating: 7    Pros: convenience Cons: price The biggest drawback is how expensive it is. Taste wise, it does have a soy flavor, but it's not too bad if it's used in small amounts (1/2 cup or less). I've made a few recipes from this board with the bake mix, and they turned out great. BBUFFING Junior LCF Member Registered: February 2004 Location: Centerburg, OH Posts: 16 Review Date: Mon February 9, 2004 Would you recommend the product? No | Price you paid?: None indicated | Rating: 2    Pros: NONE Cons: Taste If you're looking for a mix to make pancakes, bread, biscuits, muffins, this it NOT IT. I tried bread and pancakes, neither of which was edible. I DID finally use it to roll up with sausage and cheese and bake some sausage puffs, and it wasn't bad if you mix it with something that has a strong flavor, but don't try to actually BAKE anything with it. Tambora Junior LCF Member Registered: April 2004 Posts: 2 Review Date: Wed April 21, 2004 Would you recommend the product? Yes | Price you paid?: None indicated | Rating: 8    Pros: easy, very similar to a real baked good Cons: I was really surprised at how reasonable this product was after I read all the negative reviews. I made the quick bread on the box and it was perfectly tasty. Maybe one reason I didn't find the flavor objectionable was the fact that I have been baking all of our bread, muffins etc. for years with soy flour. So, I'm very used to the taste. I thought the bread would be good with peanut butter on top, but didn't want to add any carbs so didn't do it. It would also be great with bacon and eggs on top. In light of all the negative reviews, I wonder if the type of sweetner used may also have an impact on the results? For the record, I used Spenda. cheri Administrator Registered: September 2000 Location: Illinois Posts: 15282 Review Date: Mon June 7, 2004 Would you recommend the product? Yes | Price you paid?: None indicated | Rating: 8    Pros: Cons: This bake mix makes great fried chicken! Just add some salt and pepper to the mix... wet chicken with water and egg bath and then shake the chicken in a baggie with the mix in it... bake. VERY tasty!! omeara Senior LCF Member Registered: September 2004 Location: Maryland Posts: 212 Review Date: Fri September 10, 2004 Would you recommend the product? Yes | Price you paid?: $11.00 | Rating: 7    Pros: makes nice pancakes, a decent option Cons: strong soy taste tinge_of_crimson Senior LCF Member Registered: July 2004 Location: Los Angeles Posts: 120 Review Date: Wed September 29, 2004 Would you recommend the product? Yes | Price you paid?: None indicated | Rating: 7    Pros: Cons: I finaly bought it after seeing it in so many recipes. It is fine as long as there are enough other flavors going on in the recipe so that it is not too strong. careb Very Gabby LCF Member!!!

Yes | Price you paid?: None indicated | Rating: 7    Pros: useful Cons: i love it...thats all there is to say SlimmingSigma Junior LCF Member Registered: February 2004 Location: Chicago Posts: 16 Review Date: Fri December 10, 2004 Would you recommend the product? No | Price you paid?: None indicated | Rating: 3    Pros: Cons: I made the Atkins Garlic Toast Crisps and they were awful. I tried to make a Lemon loaf style baked good and it was saltly and horrble. . .tossed them. The first thing I made was the pancakes recipe on the can and they were okay but they tasted nothing like the premixed dry Atkins pancakes and waffles mix. It might have been the soy milk used but then it should have only called for water. lowcarbie Junior LCF Member Registered: April 2003 Location: Pennsylvania Posts: 4 Review Date: Mon March 14, 2005 Would you recommend the product?

Yes | Price you paid?: None indicated | Rating: 6    Pros: ok stuff if nothing else available Cons: strong taste This stuff was great back when there was nothing else out there. Now I prefer the Carbquick and almond flour mixes. Sun_Luvin Blabbermouth!!! Registered: October 2005 Location: Arkansas Posts: 7408 Review Date: Mon October 17, 2005 Would you recommend the product? No | Price you paid?: None indicated | Rating: 1    Pros: Cons: I really wish I had read these reviews before I spent the $15 a can for this stuff. YUCK!! The bread turned out more like cornbread, and bad cornbread at that... Can't stand this stuff... Aediekins MAJOR LCF POSTER! Registered: September 2004 Location: La La Land Posts: 1106 Review Date: Fri January 27, 2006 Would you recommend the product? Yes | Price you paid?: None indicated | Rating: 0    Pros: Cons: Atkins bake mix is Bad, Bad, Bad. Just get over it. Bread, cookies, pancakes are not in your future. Learn to love BBQ, meats, cheeses, salads and the like. It's all good eats. Believe me, no matter how hard-up you are for carbs, just enjoy your steak.
