This vanilla paste inspired me to try and it and that is the first thing which i made is this. My whole house smelled heavenly when i was making this. Now i have a jar of the delicious vanilla bean paste. I can use them in my baking recipes or anything and it will make them even better..

Can this be made with an alternative sweetener? I don't eat white sugar anymore and would hate to have to buy a big bag for 1/2 c. I do have several types of sweetener to choose from, even honey. Thanks in advance for your response!
