| Excellent substitute for Bisquik. For many recipes check out tovaindustries.com/carbalose/recipe.php I have successfully made muffins, scones, pancakes, coconut pie, and wonderful sausage-cheese balls. Nobody asked me if I used something "funny". Best advice - don't overhandle the dough. |

| If this product is ever discontinued, we're going to be in a world of hurt! I recently made a batch of banana bread and substituted Carquik for flour and Splenda for sugar and I defy anyone to tell me I had done that. We use this product at least three times a week and it ends up on every one of my Netrition orders. Simply a "can't do without" product in the low carb WOE. |

Reviewer: Dana in Missouri |
| This is a very good low carb substitute for high carbohydrate biscuit mixes like Bisquik. There is a slight aftertaste, but the savings in carbs is well worth it and the things I have baked with it have been very enjoyable. |

| This is an excellent product. I will definitely buy this again. The cookies I made tasted great! Carbquick is a great product for anyone with diabetes! This did not create any rise in blood sugar for me whatsoever. |

| I had ordered Carbquick a while back,never did give it a try until today! OMG!!! Then I came back to re-order quickly and found it is out of stock. A friend of mine on the lowcarb website gave me a recipe for an english muffin, I am going to be addicted from this point on! Who cares about bread or other carby stuff when this is on the market. Awesome product and I didn't find any weird after-taste at all! I would Highly recommend this product to anyone! |

Reviewer: lisa in Florida |
| I love this stuff. I use it in place of flour. I make zucchini muffins, pumpkin bars, brownies. Its really great when you are trying to stay low carb. I have also learned how to make Splenda into powdered sugar form so I can make cream cheese icing on my cakes or pumpkin bars. I use Splenda brown sugar and reg Splenda to bake with, you would never know the difference. |

Reviewer: joanne in California |
| I've used this product for over two years now. It does take some "tweaking" of your regular recipes and, yes, the texture is different than regular flour but not so much that it's offensive. I say, "Who cares" when you can eat a waffle or biscuit and still lose weight. It also doesn't raise my BG. I do put a little more leavening in the mix, usually in the form of baking powder and if I'm making waffles I put some vanilla in it. I like the biscuits it makes and, generally, I'll go to the Bisquick website and tweak their recipes and they all turn out fine. The coffee cake is really good. If you're new to low-carbing than you need to know that this is a life saver when it comes to baked goods made from scratch.
Thank you Tova Industries for your wonderful product. |

| I love Carbquik. It has so many uses. I make pancakes, gravy, fried chicken breast occasionally, and many other items! I feel better using this than white flour because I am on a low carbohydrate diet. Now I can eat some of things I love, still lose weight, and feel great about it. Give it a try! |

Reviewer: Valerie in Kentucky |
| I've been making low-carb pancakes for about a year with Carbquik. I add chopped walnuts and flaxseed for extra fiber, too. My family really likes them. Carbquik's flavor is good and doesn't taste gritty manufactured as many low carb foods do. Being diabetic, I appreciate being able to eat good tasting, healthful foods like this. Thanks so much for making this available. |

Reviewer: Nicole in Texas |
| Great taste. Very easy to work with. Great for those who are looking for a low carb/high fiber alternative to Bisquik! I like that I don't have to add anything special to disguise or change the taste of it like I've found with a lot of other low carb products. In fact, I've made the cheese biscuits twice now, and my entire family gobbles them up right away (My children are 14 mos to 11 yrs old). I highly recommend this product!! |

Reviewer: Andrew in Virginia |
| This stuff is incredible!!! So far it has been a great replacement for any pancake mix... straight pancakes and waffles taste great. Makes great biscuits as well, although those are best served with spray butter or a gravy. Baking desserts has taken a little practice as far as timing goes, but all in all an incredible product for the nutritional value!!! Always exploring new ways to use it!!! (we're on our 4th box - so absolutely a product to look at) |

Reviewer: Loretta in North Carolina |
| Wow, is this stuff for real? My daughters' wanted pancakes for dinner and I figured I would sub this so I could also enjoy one. I ordered the mix a few weeks ago and forgot about it. I added the mix, heavy whipping cream and water as stated on the box but, of course, went to the fridge and I was out of eggs. I decided to drop them in a pan and make drop biscuits. To my surprise, they were wonderful. I still can't believe this is low carb. |

| This stuff is wonderful! And there are lots of easy recipies posted. I tried using it in my bread machine. The texture and taste is awesome. Now I can make a wonder low carb sandwich. For a long time I have used low carb wrap (this works good), but it never really satisfied my craving for a sandwich. |

| This product has enabled us to convert to a low-carb lifestyle rather than going on a diet. We make low carb pancakes that I prefer to the regular pancakes and I also use this mix as a coating for fish before dipping in egg and then a pecan meal to bake...gets rave reviews. It is the best I have found on the market. |

I make a batch of waffles and freeze them for during the week. It also makes great biscuits - a great alternative! This is a wonderful product! |

| Bought this product to make pancakes but found the recipe on the box not good for same. Use this instead: 1c + tblsp. carbquick, 1 tblsp. splenda, 2 tblsp. veg oil, 1/2 c milk (or soy, etc.), 1 egg, splash vanilla. I add lots of blueberries and sf syrup. Excellent. |

Reviewer: Nancy in North Carolina |
| For anyone trying to cut carbs this is a very good product. I have tried several of the recipes I found by searching carbquik recipes and they have all been good. I have found that if I add a little more sweetener that it makes the dessert recipes better. And I do sub the sugar in the recipes for either splenda or nature sweet. I recommend this product from experience using it. I have tried the pancakes, cinnamon buns, pizza dough, and many others. |

| Carbquik is a fantastic, marvelous product. It tastes like regular baking products. Thank you so much for providing the low carb dieters with such a fabulous product. I do not feel that I am on a strict low carb diet. For the first time in my life I do not feel deprived of the carbs that were so important to me. I have tried the recipes for the pancakes, the cheese biscuits. (in moderation of course), and this is helping me stay on a very low carb diet. I can not wait to try all the other recipes that you give us.
It is an absolutely wonderful product. |

Reviewer: Riley in Michigan |
| This stuff is absolutely amazing. So far, my husband and I have used it to make delicious pancakes (we love our BRINNER nights!:) and thin-crust pizza crust. We always comment on the nutty, delicious, faint "almondy" smell that tickles our noses every time we open the packaging. To make the pancakes, we basically use a tweaked version of the waffle recipe that comes on the box - adding 1/2 cup of cream instead of 1/4, 2 eggs vs. 1 - and they come out great. We follow the pizza crust recipe as is. We always make sure to weigh the carbquik vs. using a measuring cup. I absolutely LOVE carbquik and thank Netrition for carrying this and other fine products. |

Reviewer: Ron in Wisconsin |
| Carbquik is so nice to have available, it allows you to have bread like foods without completely blowing your low carb diet. I highly recommend the blueberry muffin recipe they have on the Tova website, but even more than that, I highly recommend tweaking it by omitting the blueberries, and adding a half teaspoon of vanilla extract, and a half teaspoon of orange extract...oh so good :) Seriously. Seriously seriously. Raspberry and banana extract is good too, and so is using about a tablespoon of cinnamon. |

Reviewer: Jerry in Minnesota |
| I make pancakes with this mix just as I have done with
Bisquick brand baking mix and both my wife and I thoroughly
enjoy them along with sugar free syrup. First I eliminate
the called for butter. To the mix I add heavy whipping cream at a ratio of three to one with added water. You can
change this according to how you like and also the total amount according to what consistency you like your batter. I also add (to taste) a few shakes of nutmeg and according to amount of pancakes desired-a tsp to a TBSP of almond extract. The consistency of our pancakes is more like the high-carb type and not as greasy as with the butter. We still enjoy butter on top though. |
