Note: getting the sweetness to the desired level is a matter of trial and error, the best thing is to start with a smaller amount of whatever Stevia you have on hand, it can be ready-use, liquid or tabs (need to be dissolved too), adding more is easier than diluting – you could end up with a huge amount of treat -Don’t have any Stevia yet? – you can always use normal sweetener products until you are set...

This is a great pear cake with crumbles on top. The crumbles are crunchy even thought they don't have any sugar in them at all, instead I use Stevia-sweet Baking Granules 1:1.
