-ok Ev1…If you decide to use stevia instead of sugar ,,,,you must increase the vanilla and flour . The reason for this is to keep the consistancy of the cake. The stevia I would use would be liquid and only Very Little. Increase the flour by 1 tsp. and the vanilla by 1/2 tsp.

Gabby and ev1 else!!!! I don't know where you all get some of your information from. First off I wouldn't use nevella because it is the brand name for an artificial sweetener sucralose. Sucralose is sold under the name of Splenda and I for 1 have discussed this with my Dr. and the only other sweetener I would use would be fructose from fresh fruit. Not the corn syrup but the fructose. To get any use from fruit fructose, you have to reduce the juice quite a bit but its worth it in the long run.

I live in Istanbul-Turkey.Here , I can find it at the big supermarkets , "diabetic items" stands. I trust you can find at Walmart or Whole Food there.Be sure that the raw material is fruits&vegetables.

Where would you find fructose?

Hi everybody ;
I gave up using Splenda and started using fructose (not corn syrup but made of fruits & vegetables) for bakings.I know it has carbs however the glycemic index is 19 while the sugar's is 100.It is very sweet so that only 5 table spoon of fructose is enough for a big cake.
Just an idea.
Health for everyone…

the problem with SPLENDA is that it contains chlorine as well as other chemicals.

AsPARTAME turns to wood alchohol in our brain… hhhmmm both sound safe to me. Sugar, as poisonous as it is, is probably safer as it does not contain chemicals. :D The caps are for emphasis, not yelling.
