posted by Sherry Eckert on *P - ID#GDDF80A and she got
it from SWEET INSPIRATIONS SUGAR FREE DESSERT
COOKBOOK.
* To make fruit sweetener - cook four cups of
fruit juice until it is reduced to one cup. If you
like it sweeter add Sweet One. OR if a recipe calls
for 1/2 cup fruit sweetener, use 1/2 cup frozen fruit
juice plus half as much (1/4 cup) granulated fructose.
~ Sherry adds Sweet One instead to desired sweetness.
If 2/3 cup is called for use 2/3 cup concentrate plus
1/3 cup granulated fructose. Commercial fruit
sweeteners are available at health food stores. Good
juices to use are apple, orange, pineapple, pineapple-
orange, and grape.

“That's something I've noticed about food: whenever there's a crisis if you can get people to eating normally things get better.”
