The recipe called for 3 cups of sugar in the batch. I used 1 cup of Splenda (may God bless its makers). It still tasted too sweet to me. I've also made not-so-sweet sugar snap peas with a dab of Splenda for the sugar (about 1/2 the sugar measure), which was pretty good, this was not canned but fridged. Splenda Inc. says you can replace it 1 to 1 for regular sugar, but I'd start with 1 to 3 and taste test. I haven't made bread with it tho. Edrena |

There are some special instructions for using Splenda when baking (which you can find on the Splenda website (www.splenda.com)or which they'll mail to you if you call their customer service center at 800-777-5363. -- Donna A pessimist believes all women are bad.

Gave me the worst stomach ache when I use it and other gastric upsets. Also, too sweet, left an after taste in my mouth for many hours. oh well... Suzan |
