Hi. Can anyone tell me what is a good trade name for this in the UK, and where it can be easily obtained?

Amazon for me too.

Branded versions - (erythritol/stevia mix) I've used are Sukrin, Natvia, and once or twice when it;s been on offer, Truvia. Try Ocado, Morrisons or Tesco for the last 2 brands.

I've tried NKD Living, and they tend to produce good quality stuff. Their xylitol is good, too. I bought Pink Sun brand powdered erythritol, which wasn't as good -- too clumpy.

It's also well worth checking eBay prices as well, as both erythritol and xylitol can sometimes be substantially cheaper over there.

I have a regular Amazon order for NKD Living's Erythritol Gold, but I didn't really get on with their standard erythritol...

And a warning re xylitol - don't buy it if you're have dogs, as even small amounts can be extremely toxic to them and can cause hypos, liver damage, and possibly death.
