Choose
Choose a water-based formulation without sugar or syrups. Check the concentration: the sweetness of each drop varies by brand.
Store
Keep tightly closed according to the label and avoid touching food with the dropper.
Prepare
Add at the end, mix and taste before adding more. Useful for drinks and creams, but not a direct replacement for sugar in cakes or caramel.
How to make the most of it

Tart fruit, cocoa, yoghurt and plant drinks.
How to substitute it
