Diet Easter Fudge
*Artificial liquid sweetener is dissolved sucralose in water, which has zero carbs. Full-strength liquid is very concentrated. One drop of liquid can be over a teaspoon of "sugar-sweetness". Sweetzfree is full-strenth liquid sweetener, with each drop providing the sugar equivalent of about 1-1/2 teaspoons. EZ-Sweet sells a full-strength solution in small containers of up to half an ounce each. You can buy the containers singly, or in packs of three or six. EZ-Sweetz is readily available at sites such as Amazon, Netrition, and the manufacturer's Web site. There are other brands that can be found online. These are difficult to find in stores. They're worth ordering, though!
