  This review is about the weight: 250 gr

  I haven't had it for long enough to know what it does in all recipes, and I can't judge the taste yet because I haven't been using it for long and everything seems strange to me anyway.

  I also included a photo with the nutritional ingredients on the front and back so that anyone who wants to buy it can see them. Normally, food products on skroutz should already include the label of ingredients and nutritional information in the photos, mandatory!

  Sugar:
  Carbohydrates/sugar may seem like a lot, especially compared to almond flour, but for the same recipe that would use 1 cup of coconut flour, you need 2.5 cups of almond flour, so it is prohibitive in terms of price and dosage. This is because coconut flour absorbs much more liquid, so while you have a lot of final product, it doesn't have as much flour in the recipe and has fewer total carbohydrates/sugar in the final edible product.

  Price:
  It is three times more economical per kilogram than almond flour and requires 2-3 times less quantity compared to almond flour in the same recipes. Therefore, it is up to 9 times more economical. Moreover, the recipes created by my well-known nutritionist friend always turn out better with coconut flour because it is more soluble and fluffy compared to almond flour, which hardly absorbs at all.

  Taste:
  I don't have a strong opinion on the taste because both seem different from regular flour. At the beginning of a low-carb diet, it is normal for everything to seem strange; it is also a matter of habit. Don't expect ketogenic bread to be identical to regular bread; when you change your diet, you inevitably change the flavors as well.

  Recipes:
  If you want to reduce carbohydrates, the instructions also suggest replacing 20% of regular flour with this. In that case, you may not notice much difference in taste. However, if you are making ketogenic foods, then the recipes change. Don't expect to substitute this flour for regular flour in the same recipes/quantities and succeed. You will need to search for recipes online, watch videos on YouTube, and explore all the options.

  Mix:
  In my recipes, I also add 20% bamboo flour, which is 100% fiber (0% sugar and 0% protein). This makes the final product even lighter in sugar, and bamboo flour is also much cheaper than almond flour.

  I haven't had it for long enough to know what it does in all recipes, and I can't judge the taste yet because I just started and everything seems strange to me anyway.

  I also included the photo of the front and back with the nutritional information so that it can be seen by anyone who wants to buy it; normally, food on skroutz should have the label of ingredients and nutritional information already in the photos as a requirement!

  Sugars:
  The carbohydrates/sugars may seem high to you, especially in relation to almond flour, but for the same recipe where you would use 1 cup of coconut flour, you want 2.5 cups of almond flour, so that is prohibitive in price and dosage. This is because coconut flour absorbs much more liquid, and so while you have plenty of final product, there isn't as much flour in the recipe, and you have fewer total carbohydrates/sugars in the final edible product.

  Price:
  It is three times cheaper per kilogram than almond flour and requires 2~3 times less quantity compared to almond flour in the same recipes. Therefore, it is up to 9 times cheaper. The recipes created by my nutritionist friend always turn out better with coconut flour because it is more soluble and fluffier compared to almond flour, which absorbs almost none.

  Taste:
  I don't have a strong opinion on the taste because both seem different from regular flour. At the beginning of a low-carb diet, it is reasonable for everything to seem strange to you; it is also a matter of habit. Don't expect ketogenic bread to be identical to regular bread; when you change your diet, you inevitably change the flavors as well.

  Recipes:
  If you want to reduce carbohydrates, it says in the instructions to replace 20% of regular flour with this one. There, you might not notice much difference in taste. However, if you are making ketogenic foods, then the recipes change. Don't expect to use this flour instead of regular flour in the same recipes/dosages and have them succeed. You will search online for recipes and watch videos on YouTube to see all the options.

  Mixing:
  I also add 20% bamboo flour to the recipes, which is 100% fiber (0% sugars and 0% proteins). This way, the final product becomes even lighter in sugars, while bamboo flour is also quite cheaper than almond flour.

  After baking the sweet, it tastes bitter. Seeing 5 stars in the reviews, it probably happened to me to get a defective product
