You can substitute sugar for corn syrup in a pecan pie but it probably wouldn't be a good idea to use honey - that would be too sweet. |

Read the label and don't buy the stuff >that contains high fructose corn syrup (expect to pay a bit more for >that formulation). the most well-known brand of corn syrup in the US is Karo and it no longer contains HFC. It does not cost more because of this. I would guess that other brands no longer have HFC. Ophelia is located outside of north America. Janet US |

I don't know what you are making and honey may make a difference. Remember that honey draws moisture and helps keep your bread from drying out. Janet US |

MrD shared a recipe which included Corn Syrup, which I haven't seen here (or noticed). I now have knowledge of other, similar things as well:) I doubt very much I will change the way I use my honey now, but it is very interesting to see the alternatives.

I've read so much about how bad agave is for you that I was surprised by how *not* sweet it tasted.

I think Karo syrup says it has no fructose.

Yes, but refer to that link I sent you where they talk about equivalences. I have not used it in baking myself but I see no reason why not.

I am resisting it because it seems to have bad rep. What do >you think about it? What have you heard about it that is so bad? It is not high fructose(?) corn syrup. It has been around since I was a child and that has been a long time. Obviously it is very sweet but you aren't planning to eat it by the cupful are you? It is a pretty necessary ingredient in things like pecan pie. If we had an idea what you need it for we might be of more help. Some of the other sweeteners have fairly strong flavors that you may or may not want in what you are making. -- Susan N.
