Ah-hah! That makes much more sense. Now I'm not so confused :) I'm
about to marry a Jewish man who doesn't keep kosher, except for the
kosher-for-Passover part. He's very bemused by the fact that I find
kosher law more fascinating than he ever has. I keep asking him
questions he can't answer. He ends up directing me back to the friend I
mentioned earlier, who is even more bemused by my curiosity than he is.

I wasn't sure if any random other sweetener would work. The recipe is
for a glaze for one of those decadent flourless chocolate cakes. I
figured the very hydrous syrup might contribute chemically to the
texture of the glaze and it's to set. So, I wanted to make sure that
whatever I used had the same properties. And the darned thing is
expensive to make, so I don't want to have to experiment more than
neccisary.
