Default Atkins Products Discontinued?

I keep seeing mentions of Atkins products..the bake mix, the pizzas, the syrups. Have all these been discontinued? All I can ever find from Atkins are the shakes and the bars, even on the Atkins site. What gives?

When Atkins ventured into the food business, he compromised his own recommendations.


Ingredients like maltitol are used in the majority of low carb sweets to make them more appealing and to increase shelf life. Unfortunately, most people have bad reactions to most of the polyols. Digestive upset and/or blood sugar spikes. (For me, erithrytol is an exception.)

My own opinion is good riddance to those products.

Here is a recipe that a lot of people use as a substitute for Atkins bake mix.
Faux Atkins Bake Mix
1 cup soy flour
2 cups soy protein isolate
2 tablespoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons Splenda
Sift together then store and use as you would Dr. A's. It's much cheaper
and things come out about the same.
