I have been reading a lot of recipes and many of them call for Xylitol. I have not seen this in stores, or maybe I'm not looking in the right place?

I made low carb pizza crust last night and the recipe called for it, and I just used a packet of stevia instead.

    If you're in the US it's on amazon. http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_noss_2?url=search-alias=grocery&field-keywords=xylitol&sprefix=xylitol,aps,NaN

    Whole foods in the U.S. carries it. In the baking department.

    It was good. I do not bake and I managed to make it work. I made it according to the recipe but must have not measured the almond flour and parmesan exactly because it was way too wet, and it wasn't enough to cover the cookie sheet. So I had to make another batch, and I made it with a little extra parmesan to account for the too wet of the first batch, and together it came out fine. I didn't have the parchment paper it calls for, so I just pressed it right on the cookie sheet.

    We don't have Whole Foods stores yet in my area, one is scheduled to open in 2017. There is another natural foods store I can try, I was only there once so I'm not familiar with all they have. I can compare price on the almond flour there too.
