what kind of natural formula can you put in this. I don't want to use anything with preservatives or processed sugar?

I use 1cup of water to 1/4 cup of cane sugar. The little hummers need the sugar. To my knowledge nothing else works except the processed stuff you buy and I definitely don't want to give them that. My little hummers are thriving. I put the sugar in the water then bring it to a boil so that it all dissolves. When it cools I put it in their feeders.

I use white sugar but I guess you could use raw sugar. 1C sugar to 4C water, and boil for five minutes. The boiling is important to rid of bacteria.

I mix white sugar with filtered water (1/4 cup sugar to 1cup water). I would imagine raw organic sugar would be an excellent substitute. In fact, I just might switch to that. Just remember the 1:4 ratio and you shouldn't have any problems. Change it out every few days! Btw I have had this feeder for a few years now and it has held up very well!

I always use 2 cups of water with 1/2 cup of sugar and got the goahead from a local birder

A typical nectar recipe is one part sugar to four parts water. Bring to a boil and remove. Some recipes suggest adding a bit of color using kook-aid or crystal light mix to attract the hummingbirds. Use very little the color should be slight not bright.

Well, powdered sugar is a a mix of very finely ground sugar and corn starch. If you're not averse to corn, maybe try a mixture of xylitol and corn starch. You could try using arrowroot powder or the like, too. I'd just whir it up in a food processor or blender, adding more starch and/or xylitol until you have reached your desired level of sweetness and consistency.

This is on the label: No Artificial Flavor or Sweetener, No Preservatives, No Sugar, No Starch, No Milk, No Lactose, No Gluten, No Wheat, No Yeast, No Fish. Sodium Free.Hope this helps.

Yes! This is what would be called for in a recipe which calls for glucose syrup. This product has a similar consistency to corn syrup! (Or you could just use corn syrup instead!)

Sugar is a natural preservative. That's why you don't have to refrigerate most cakes, cookies, etc. Surely it is part or all of the reason you don't have to refrigerate this milk.

I'm looking at a bottle right now. No sugar. The ingredients are: water, organic soybeans, salt, organic alcohol (to preserve freshness).

herbalicious listed everything. even with the preservatives, i have not found anything cleaner that an infant can take. i wanted ultra pure, but have no idea where to find it. definitely no clean iron sources anywhere. we had no reactions, baby dealt with it the taste well until he strated eating primarily solid food, but will still take them with some coaxing. i hope you find what you need bc it doesn't seem like anyone will ever make a pure vitamin mix free of preservatives or sugar. sigh. godspeed, and best of luck.

I don't remeber all of them. But the main ingedient's are Almond Flour, and Aramanth. No processed sugar. It's easy to make as well.

There is no direct reference on product label to any of the items you list save sugar. It specifically indicates the product contains no sugar.

I have used with sugar using the lower sugar recipe and also with Splenda. My husband like the sugar in his jam and I would rather not. There are instructions on the container for the low sugar recipe. This is a good buy compared to the stores in my area. Thanks for the question and good luck:)

The unsweetened dark chocolate one that I had, has no sugar or artificial sweeteners. I don't know about the company's other variables.

I don't know. Don't have any around at the moment and never look at sugar. Sometimes look at salt and fat but not a big reader of ingredients.

I have only used the "no sugar added" variety. I would urge you to try that if sugar is a concern.

My guess would be Stevia... I LOVE this tea, and there is no way based on the other ingredients listed that it could be as sweet as it is without some outside help. Given that we know it's sugar-free, and that whatever it is is "natural," my deduction is Stevia or some other sweetener.

I only have a humble Donvier, and am looking for something like this machine, but I have made Ice cream with Splenda (excellent) and Stevia (not so good, but I think it was bad stevia) and used substantially less of each than the sugar called for in the recipes. Consistency was fine, though I sometimes add a little gelatin if making a reduced fat batch. I would think you could make a no sugar added recipe that's fine as long as you use the Splenda. Not sure about other substitutes.

I'm sorry, I don't use those products. It is 70% sweet as sugar, with the same taste as sugar, I hope that helps.
