I am always looking for alternative sweeteners to my standby, pure cane sugar. I really love the taste of maple syrup and jumped up and down in my chair when I just heard about Equinox Organic Maple Flakes with a teaspoon having half the calories of a teaspoon of sugar. Made in Quebec, Canada; Equinox Organic Maple Flakes are 100% pure, kosher, organic maple syrup that has been freeze dried at an extremely low temperature and made into small flakes. It dissolves fast, is sweet, and adds that great maple flavor as well. Suggestions for use are on pancakes, waffles, French toast; as well as in coffee, tea or hot chocolate. anywhere you would use sugar you can use maple flakes. Also they are great to use in a maple glaze for salmon or chicken, or you could just sprinkle them on top of fish and poultry, along with some other spices, and broil, for a quick and easy maple coated dish. Equinox Maple Flakes come in regular maple and cranberry maple flavors in 4 oz. containers, and they also have an attractive Maple Flake Mill, pre-filled with 2.5 oz. of flakes so you can grind the flakes into a fine powder in the kitchen or at the table. So if you feel like a little luxury and a boost of maple taste try these maple flakes.They sound good to me. They are just launching in the United States and are available at Food Emporium in New York. As I find out any more info I will update this post.

I'm trying to wean myself from regular granulated sugar...
Where can I purchase this product in Canada? (specifically Toronto, Ontario)
Thanks!

This stuff on top of oatmeal sounds like the greatest thing in the world...
I could also see myself mixing this into some of my rubs. (ooooh, this stuff mixed into my salmon rub might be 100% awesome)

Adrianna: I'm not sure where you can get this here in Toronto but I picked one up a while ago at Joanne's Place health food store in Peterborough.
