I used my vanilla Ice-Cream-Base recipe to contrast all the sugar substitutes. This received favorable reviews, so I decided to try it first. I used it as a 1 for 1 replacement for sugar. Produced a smooth, creamy texture that was just about flawless. Very very easy to scoop and did not freeze up like a brick.
