In Response To: Stivia (Maureen)

As a natural sweetener from a South American plant, stivia may be just the sugar substitute that you need to get that sweetness, but not the calories. Liquid and powdered stivia is available to use while baking with sweeteners. It is suggested that stivia be used with bold tasting pastries like chocolate or lemon because stivia actually enhances tastes and shouldn't be used with light or dull tasting concoctions. There is some historical use of stivia treating blood sugar levels, but this has not been scientifically proven. 1/2 teaspoon of stivia substitutes for 1 cup of sugar or 1 drop substitutes for 1 teaspoon of sugar.
