I like to use Splenda.  It has less than 1 carb per teaspoon.  I prefer
this over honey.  Honey when used gives me the jitters.  I know no
sweetener is preferred, but I have found splenda to very helpful with my
kids who I have taken all sugar away and they are going threw deprived
periods.  I can make the forbidden brownies and such with no sugar.  I
even came up with a great peanut butter cookie recipe using no flour and
with the splenda.  Infact, I have the local health food store selling
them.   if interested in splenda,  check it out at http://sucralose.com
