  • sugar-free maple syrup?

    I was grocery shopping and I found sugar-free maple syrup (walmart brand).
    On the nutrition label, it shows:

    Total carbs 10g
    Sugar 0g
    Sugar alcohol 10g

    Is this ok to consume since it's 0g sugar?

        Hi,

        I suggest you find a maple syrup made with Splenda instead of sugar alcohol. Some people digest sugar alcohol the same as sugar. You can also make your own:

        Flavored Syrup (like DaVinci)

        1 cup syrup:

        1 cup water
        1/2 tbsp maple extract
        1 tbsp liquid splenda, or 24 pkts
        1/2 tsp guar gum

          I'm definitely going to try making that syrup. I made Oopsie rolls for the first time today and the thought of making them into "french toast" sounds wonderful!
