Formula: If recipe calls for 1/2 cup fruit sweetner, use 1/2 cup frozen fruit juice concentrate* plus half as much (1/4 cup) granulated fructose. If recipe calls for 2/3 cup fruit sweetner, use 2/3 cup frozen fruit juice concentrate* plus half as much (1/3 cup) granulated fructose. * use an unsweetened bland juice such as apple juice concentrate, or one of the dole products: Orchard Peach works well. Also by using the frozen concentrate and the granulated fructose you may need to shorten your baking time slightly. The commercial fruit sweetner acts as a humecant. this means it keeps the moisture in the baked product. From: Sweet Inspirations by Patti Lynch....A sugar free dessert cookbook. Juggs
