I've seen this halo top ice cream that you can only get in the usa it's about 60 cal / 125ml or 240cal per pint, it uses ethritriol as the main sweetener which is probably the best sweetener out there but it's very expensive compared to most others.

I've seen some gummy bears online that fit the decryption, and I've seen ethritriol/stevia chocolate bars in bulk barn (about 5-6$ per bar)

I"m interested in syrups (for cookies or on top of ice cream (chocolate, strawberry caramael etc), candies, chocolate, gummies, store made pre packaged sweets like cookies, Ice cream and more....

I have bought concentrated stevia and 2.5 lbs of ethritriol but I am not exactly a good cook and making candy can get complicated.

Any idea where to buy these sorts of things and/or links to where you can buy it online and have it shipped to Canada would be appreciated (shipping cost not a problem)

ethritriol is just like suger but is 70% as sweet and 5% of the calories

Whereas say malitol is 50% as sweet and 50% calories which means it's basically just like regular suger

stevia has a bit of an aftertaste and it's way stronger , all others are bitter

I have been using yacon to with ethriol and stevia to make cookies subbing oil for apple sauce as well, I make like a whole huge plate of cookies for like 600 cal :), use a combination of soy and almond flour as well

but yacon is very expensive and has a unique taste to it

    Do you have access to Rice Malt Syrup in Canada? It is a natural sweetener and it doesn’t contain fructose. We can buy it in the super market and health food stores in Australia. I use it instead of sugar or honey when I want something sweet.

    I don't know how to link to a thread, but look up "Products of interest: Canadian edition". Lots of good stuff on there. I just added an ice cream brand to the list last weekend.

    Amazon.com -- that's where lots of Americans buy stuff you describe.
