We all love xylitol.  It is made from birch trees so it is a natural product and doesn't leave that aftertaste.  I find it at my local health food store or you can order it online.  It comes in little packets as well as larger bags.

Just make sure its 100 % pure 0 carbs.It is wonderful .It has the same consistency as sugar, but you only need half as much.

It should be right on the label??   Don't let your experience with Stevia turn you off to the product. There are several brands out there and I have found taste differences between them all. Umpa and I finally settled in with a brand of Stevia from Stevita. Its pre packaged, carb free and tasty.
