Kandee, I finally have this info!       11/29/04 06:27 PM Edit Reply Quote Heather Reged: 12/09/02 Posts: 7799 Loc: Seattle, WA I'm featuring it in the IBS Newsletter that comes out tomorrow, and then I'll probably excerpt it and post it in the diet section so it's easily available. In a nutshell, yep, you can bake and cook with Acacia! I've been playing around and have added it to just about everything I've made lately. You can't really add too much in terms of ruining the recipe unless you're baking, where it can change the texture (makes it gummy) if you add a lot. I haven't found the limit yet - have been sticking to about 1 tablespoon per loaf of cake/bread. Also haven't tried it in hard candy like your peanut brittle, but the stuff will not break down in heat so I don't know why it wouldn't work in the brittle. Since it does attract and absorb moisture I'm wondering if it might make your candy less likely to stay hard and crunchy - don't know how to tell without just making it! - H -------------------- Heather is the Administrator of the IBS Message Boards.
