Hey dont know about the pancake syrup, but you guys where talking about sugar. I dont used alot of them cause of the harmful stuff. But their are truvia, or stevia basically the same thing. I use Whey low, just go to wheylow.com they have all sorts. A doctor made it for his wife. I got some I have made a pumkin pie the reciepes in on the web site. I also have made cookies and cant even tell the difference, it is kinda pricey a 2lb. bag with shipping cost me 19 us dollars.

Thanks, Joshua.Much other info here is terrifying and emphasizes the need to do research. The only,the sole zero-glycemic sweetener without toxicity is stevia, and sugar alcohols for adult...Carey's has splenda which is a big no-no unless you like to drink clorox. Research it. Honey is better than sugar because you need only 75% as much for same sweetness and it's metabolically not quite as damaging to your body. But it's sugar, one molecule away from table sugar, and shouldn't be used by those avoiding sugar. Agave nectar is a little better than honey but not by much. Same for rice syrup.

Don't turn for nutritional advice to anyone who uses Cool Whip. What a nasty, plastic convenience that one is. Look at the ingredients. First is corn syrup, which all of us try to avoid. Then you have some anti-freeze ingredients, wax, artificial flavor and color. Great product if you want to gain weight or commit suicide slowly.

Honey is sugar, but it is the good sugar, but it isn't like the empty calories from table sugar. Your body actually uses most of the honey.

Honey IS sugar, with a slightly lower GI so I would use half a natural herb such as stevia. Half sugar since stevia doesn't taste that great on its own and you can get the texture from the sugar.

I would like to know also how to make sugar free syrup. my mother used to make syrup when we were kids so why can't it be made sugar free, not fruit or honey! Syrup!

I haven't tried this. It's been a long time since I made syrup or needed it, but zylitol measures & tastes just like sugar, even has the same consistency. Zylitol doesn't raise blood sugar like sugar, either. You might try a little molasses. It's good for you & adds a rich taste to things.

My husband is diabetic too, and we're all trying to cut back on the sugar anyway. I'm always surprised at how many people don't realize that honey IS sugar. I have made a Maple flavoured 'sauce" using splenda brown sugar Blend in some water, bring to a boil and thicken slighlty with cornstarch, then add a few tablespoons of margarine, a pinch of salt, and Mapline flavouring. My personal preference is sugar free jams on my pancakes, or even a little Splenda mixed with cinnamon or pumpkin or apple pie spice mixes. I never was a big syrup fan.

Good Luck!
