Yes, it is. In fact, some of the recipes that and Karyn Seroussi

use, substitute glycerin for syrupy sweeteners for those on sugar-free

diets. But if you plan to do this, buy Frontier's food grade glycerin; I

called a maker of a cheaper brand that was 99% pure and it was recommended

to be used only sparingly if you were going to ingest it.
