Splenda is artificial sweetener. One other thing that's like it is "Equal"

Equal is "NutraSweet" Splenda is "Sucralose"...much different. Go with Splenda.

Sucralose is just a more natural sweetner.

One big difference is that you can substitute Splenda for sugar on a one-to-one basis. With Equal, you have to make a substitution, which can change the chemistry of your recipe, since you use less "dry" ingredient this way (assuming the original recipe called for sugar).
