Sweetner based Meringue...

Hi Guy and girls!

Just wondering if you can help clear something up for me?? Pretty please.....

i have a seriously sweet tooth so i'm looking for low syn (or syn free substitutes if poss) for a big fat sugar coated something LOL :)

i was given a recipe for meringue made from only splenda and eggs?? as these two things are free would the meringue be free or is that a blantent abuse of "free food"??

someone please help. if this is syn free this could be my saviour

thanks in advance

It should be free as the sweetener and eggs r free! I hope so-that would cure my biggest problem of all!!!! Topped with some strawberrys and fat free natural yoghurt that would be an awesome pudding!!!
 
Yes free - however they DO NOT taste like normal meringues. they are basically air with no substance. ok on top of something (lemon meringue ish) but not on their own. i love meringues but have yet to find recipe that works so if you find one please share.
For a syn free Sweet treat - try mixing quark with sweetner & then add berries (if you crush & melt slightly alpen light bars you can put the quark mix on top & top with berries - hay presto sw cheesecake!)
