Like several (I'm guessing) here, I have to watch my caloric intake. That does NOT mean I'm quite willing to give up jam and toast for breakfast! What it DOES mean is that I need to find a way to make those 7 cups of sugar mean less.
This year, for my cherry jam, I switched cup for cup....sugar and Splenda. I had to add just a TOUCH more margarine to the batch as Splenda tends to foam a bit more.
For the Raspberry jam, I added 1 cup sugar to 2 cups Splenda.....and cannot tell you the difference in taste.
Just finished a batch of blueberry jam. I used all Splenda here. From the raw "Cook's Taste" it's still just superb!
Peaches and Pears are coming...and I want to make my packing syrup using all Splenda.
Anyone else use Splenda to can with?
