xylitol

Xylitol is a natural sweetener that is produced from hard wood sources, predominantly Birch and Beech. It looks and tastes the same to sugar and is interchangeable in recipes - the only difference is a subtle minty aftertaste. Xylitol contains 40% less calories than cane sugar, is low GI, non GMO and is 100% natural. Store in an airtight container and keep in a cool, dry place.
