Splenda holds up better than.. say Aspartame.. under heat. but it doesnt keep its sweetness well. which is why i use it in COLD tea, but not in HOT tea...... Acesulfame K holds up dandy under baking conditions though. Kirsten kirsten at fabricdragon.com http://www.fabricdragon.com "Did you vote? No? Then don't come whining to me...."
