Agave Powder?

Hi Vegwebbers!
I found some agave powder in the grocery store today and I was wondering if anyone has used it before. If so, how? Can I use it to replace sugar? I've googled it but there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of info out there. Anyway, any help you have to offer would be very much appreciated. Thanks!

I've never seen or heard of the powder!!
Sorry, I have no idea what to do with it but I wanted to say, how exciting!  :D

It is exciting! :D  I'm in Korea right now so I was excited to see anything marked agave that wasn't tequila! I haven't bought it yet. It was a huge bag. I'd like to figure out if i can use it first.  ??? I'll let you know the results if I do test it out.

Well, now, I have a use for it ... but it's not a use for cooking.

There is a product called "Kama Sutra Honey Dust Powder." Now, from what I gather, most vegans wouldn't use this. Agave powder can be used in its place.

Just brush it on whatever ... or whomever you desire and lick.  ;)

interesting! can you read anything on the bag about uses?

The bag says it's a sweetener, that's it. I'm not sure if that means I can just swap it for sugar, or if I'm suppose to dissolve it in water to make it a syrup. It was next to the honey in the store, not the sugar, so I'm not sure if that meant it was supposed to be a replacer for honey. I haven't tried regular agave yet so I don't really have a basis for comparison, either.

Ha. Not a bad idea, but I'm currently in a long distance relationship. Licking dust off myself just doesn't sound as hot. At least to me.  :-[ ;D
