Whatever about Xylitol – and I am sure it is excellent stuff – certainly if what John is saying is anything to go by – but has anyone tried Sweet Freedom?
It is a liquid syrup made entirely from apples, grapes and carob and comes in a plastic jar you can squeeze it out of. A diabetic friend was raving to me about it because it is low GI and low GL. I have now tried it and it is jolly good – not yuckily sweet and very easy to use as you just squeeze however much you want out of the jar. You can check it out on thier website at

I guess that compared to sugar it is pretty expensive – around £3 for a pot with about 350g in it – but it goes a long way. And that xylitol isn’t that cheap either! I saw it for over £8 for a 500g pack – but then that goes a long way too I guess!
