[Healthy_Recipes_For_Diabetic_Friends] Any Experiences With Using Xylitol For Baking?



This is the part of information founded on health website - http://www.romwell.com/health/xylitol.html

One teaspoon of xylitol contains 9.6 calories, as compared to one teaspoon of sugar, which has 15 calories. It contains zero net effective carbohydrates, whereas sugar contains 4 grams per teaspoon. Xylitol has virtually no aftertaste, and is advertised as "safe for diabetics and individuals with hyperglycemia". This is because sugar-alcohols are absorbed more slowly and have less impact on a person's blood sugar than regular sugars.

Does anyone has any experiences with Xylitol and baking?
