What is Yacon Syrup?
Yacon syrup, an alternative natural sweetener, is similar to honey or syrup and perfect for cooking, baking, beverages, and more.
Use ¾ cup in place of 1 cup sugar for recipes. You may also need to reduce the amount of liquid, just as you would for honey.
We only use Young Living Vitality Line essential oils when cooking. Please be sure to use these in the recipe above. Do NOT use fragrance oils - ever!
Enjoy your oily day!
