[QUOTE="gpurdey, post: 828375, member: 176167"] Hi, Sorry I know this is a late reply but I have something to add which others didn't touch upon. I use stevia a lot but personally I don't buy it from the supermarkets because it has to have stuff added to remove the aftertaste, these chemicals although are sutible for diabetics are bad in other ways.

Cooking with stevia is challenging as Andy S mentions, but the key is to add it at just the right time for it to mix evenly through the mixture and putting it in at a high temperature removes the aftertaste slightly. I run a [URL='http://www.discoverchocolatebars.com']chocolate company[/URL] that focuses on stevia sweetened chocolate bars and it took me ages to get it just right but when you do it is so much better tasting than sugar.
