I haven't checked all syrups yet, but heres some food for thought.

1 Bottle of torani vanilla SF syrup contains 14 carbs.

1 Bottle of Davinci Vanilla SF syrup contains 3.5

Torani tells me it's the vanilla extract that makes it like that, so it may not be a issue with the other flavors.

I'm pitching my torani. They had it in the local store so i gave it a shot.

Ooooooo... good to know that! True vanilla extract won't have that many carbs. I wonder if Torani uses "imitation" vanilla extract??

The McCormick imitation vanilla has no carbs.

Then maybe they use real vanilla extract...

At one carb per tsp it would add up in a bottle of torani syrup.

So I got a 12.7 OZ, (375 ML) bottle of Davinci Hazenut at Walmart (so lucky they sell it there!!) and it says 0 carbs. How many are in my whole bottle? Is your number there for the larger bottle that's 750 ML like on the site or for this size?

How many carbs do I count per serving of Davinci?

Thank you!

my number 4 is for the big 750 bottle

For the 12 oz probably 1 or so? i dunno im on the fly here not doing the math.

Well my bottle is half the size of the large bottle so 2 for the whole bottle... Thus... If I'm using small amounts, I don't really need to count any carbs on this right?

Thanks for the information! I dipped my finger into the syrup and tried it ... Ooh it's sooo good. I could do JUST THAT and be happy for a desert. Just a little lick . It's so good ;__;

Shei... you don't need to count anything for the sf syrup. At 2 carbs per bottle you'd have to use 1/2 bottle a day to make it matter. Enjoy!

Yeah dont worry about the Davinci syrups... I'm just gonna avoid the torani syrups.
