Yes, I have replaced sugar completely with stevia. I have tried different stevia brands and found them fairly similar - they are a mixture of stevia blends with erythritol.

I found one stevia brand with a 1:8 ratio (1g of stevia = 8g of Sugar i.e. 1:8 ratio). Found that too sweet for me and had a bitter aftertaste. I usually buy stevia with a 1:2 ratio (i.e. 1g of stevia = 2g of Sugar).

I use stevia in tea and coffee. Have also used stevia successfully to make cakes, cookies, and ice cream.
