To make fruit sweetner - cook four cups of fruit juice until it is reduced to one cup. If you like it sweeter add Sweet One.
OR if a recipe calls for ½ cup fruit sweetner, use ½ cup frozen fruit juice plus half as much (¼ cup) granulated fructose. ~ Sherry adds Sweet One instead to desired sweetness. If ⅔ cup is called for use ⅔ cup concentrate plus ⅓ cup granulated fructose. Commercial fruit sweeteners are available at health food stores. Good juices to use are apple, orange, pineapple, pineapple- orange, and grape.
