    Does anyone have any sweeteners they use besides saccharin and sodium saccharin? I am making an anhydrous lip balm and at the temp needed for filling all of the saccharin settles basically making it useless.

    Any suggestions for filling or alts are welcome!

    sucralose @0.2-0.5%—very sweet and thermally stable.

    Stevia glycosides should work. Or potassium glycyrrhizinate.
