i cant find maple extract any where is there an alternative?also our splenda in england is in a box not sachets so can anyone convert 1 sachet to teaspoons heaped or not as its too low in weight on scales to measure.when you make flaxseed muffins is it actually made with the seeds or liquid ? thanks sorry about the barrage of questions

Sorry you haven't gotten a response on this.

I don't use maple extract, it could be labeled as natural maple flavoring (not imitation), and should be located near the spices and vanilla extract in your grocery store. If your grocery store doesn't carry it, have you tried specialty or gourmet cooking stores? You might be able to order it online also. It's doesn't spoil and should ship just fine.

In the US, one packet of splenda is slightly more than 1/4 teaspoon. When I make flaxseed muffins, I use flaxseed meal or flaxseed flour. It's ground up flaxseeds.

take heed - most vanilla extract/flavourings in the UK contain sugar. READ THE LABEL and stay clear of ingredients such as sugar/dextrose/sucrose/corn syrup, etc.

Good luck, mate.
