I just discovered by an article that somebody of our country made a new kind of sweetener. This is the site from it. Myself I never heard about it. The very small proportion of sweetener isn't mentioned in the site. But this is what was written in the article of the newspaper :

Voor de zoetheid zit er ook een kleine dosis van de chemische zoetmaker sucralose in Sweetwell. translated: for the sweetness there is also a little bit of the chemical sweetmaker 'sucralose' in Sweetwell. CHEMICAL !!!!! pfffff So I don't know if it will be a good sweetener.

Thank you for the info dear. I never heard about it. It just mentioned that a restaurant used it already here with success. But the words "a little bit of chemical sweetener" made my brows going up.

Maybe we will hear more about it soon. I cannot ask for info to my two eldest kids as both learned for bakery. They left school before it was invented.
