You can get Stevia as a powder, or as a liquid, I have found that the liquid works better for cold stuff and I like the powder better for hot things. It's probably all in my head, but there ya go. And for a low cal treat, I LOVE to make a stiff meringue and bake it in "strips' that I've piped onto parchment paper.. then once it's cool, dip one end into chocolate.. not too bad for calories and tastes totally yummy!! called Lange du Chat... (sp) or "Cat's tongue"
