[QUOTE="Silkroad77, post: 1865564, member: 488679"] Thanks for all your replies folks, I think (but may be wrong) that out of all the sweeteners Stevia could be the best-well same with Xylotil, but you need to check it's origins, to ensure it's the right one. See I'd love to bake if I could-but I'm awful at baking, I mean I do try to bake cakes from time to time, but they come out halfway between cake & biscuits! I've tried several times and it's always the same-it's only once when I made some cupcakes, they turned out not too bad-but even then they weren't great :arghh: This is it, of course I'd never say get rid of gluten free, or dairy free etc, as people do have intolerances and of course cannot eat certain kinds of foods. But it's just when some products out there, are gluten free, dairy free, wheat free and sugar free. I for example want proper stevia & xylitol in some products I buy, but I don't want gluten or dairy free, and I'm sure some people who cannot eat gluten, do not want sugar or dairy free. Also we have the sugar tax-which is I think excellent-it's not just Diabetic people who cannot have sugar, but as we all know sugar can lead to obesity & tooth decay. Funny how people talk about how sugar is bad for you, and yet companies don't bother making attempts to create products without maltitol/aspartame/isomalt/saccharin etc! [/QUOTE]
