Sherry Eckert on *P - ID#GDDF80A and she got it from SWEET INSPIRATIONS
SUGAR FREE DESSERT COOKBOOK. To make fruit sweetner - 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 sweetner, 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. Submitted By
