[QUOTE="sparkles, post: 194455, member: 34577"] Hi viv, Thanks for that. What is the difference between sucralose and aspartamine and what makes one nasty and the other not? Do you know? I realise fruits are high in sugars and the concentrates of 100% pure fruits (from healthfood shops) will no doubt be full of it, but concentrates are very sweet and perhaps only a very little would sweeten something like a batch of muffins. being liquid it would probably mix well into the batter. I dont know because I havent tried yet (and cant eat them on foundation so no incentive for me to try till Im through") There are also fruit butters pear and apple eg. which I think again are just the fruit boiled down till it becomes a thick paste. just a thought. I dont blame you Viv for weaning yourself off sugar. I kind of hope that as my palet gets used to less and less of it, it will need less and less of it. LOL, actually there could be truth there because already things which wouldnt have tasted very sweet to me I'm begining to notice their sweetness. But I do like sweet and will be happy to still enjoy it if I can find a healthy way. I'm also looking for the sweetness while Im in transition. any more ideas and info? How does honey fit in? Is there any scope for it in a low carb diet? Can it be diluted and used? SPARKLES [/QUOTE]
