BĂ©quet... Imagine the best home made caramel you've ever had and then some.
Real butter, cream, vanilla... no preservatives, no artificial anything. Like no other commercial caramel I've ever had. Definitely gourmet. In fact, we say our pronunciation guide for Bequet is "gourmet".

mary garvey is the person who turned me on to stevia over a year ago when we were chatting in Mudcat chat room. I had never heard of it. I found it at my local food co-op in the white powder, the powdered leaf, and in liquid drops. I tried them all, and the white powder is definitely the best in my opinion, with no aftertaste, just sweetness. It has excellent health properties aside from being a concentrated natural sweetner with no calories. If I ever get cravings for a soda, I use a tiny amount of stevia powder mixed into club soda with a few drops of cola or ginger extract (the flavoring you buy to make home made sodas).
