Stevia; Truvia; Xylitol or Erythritol
Don't these all have a different ratio from sugar regarding sweetness? I mean like say 1 was so many grams to the equivalent of sugar I'm sure the others are different so may need adjusting? xx

Stevia is something like 3 times sweeter than sugar. Not sure about Truvia. The others are 1:1 ratio.
