Default Baking Mistress!!! Why is Sweetex so much more than Alpine hi-ratio?

They are not much different. How come the price is so different? Can you shed some light on this?

Thanks very much in advance.

I am also interested in the difference. Also, if anyone has ever compared the two to see if there is a difference in the end products.

I don't know why one costs more than the other, but I know that anywhere I check prices, Sweetex is always much, much higher!

I'd like to know why too!

maybe it's just because of the brand. you know how a designer purse can cost $27,000 and some for not even $500?

For me, Sweetex would have to be worth it in the end product........I am not the type to spend extra just for a designer purse when the 19.99 purse from Kohls or Target works just fine!

Are they made by different companies? If so, then I'm sure that the reason why. If not, then I've got no clue!
