Maltitol can be subbed 1 for 1 with sugar in your Mother's dishes. It will also work for crystallized ginger. It can be laxating, though. Erythritol isn't laxating and will crystallize but it has a strong cooling effect so the ginger will have a mintyness to it. Polydextrose will get thick and syrupy, just a like a sugar syrup will, but it won't crystallize.
