question

Is it possible to replace the icing sugar with a low calorie sweetener such as Splenda?

Hi, this should be absolutely fine but I'm afraid we haven't tested it.

question

How long will this keep if I put it in a jar, still only 3 days unless frozen? Thanks Dan 😀

It lasts much longer than 3 days, butter keeps for weeks in the fridge. Sugar and brandy don’t go off. I would say 3 weeks at least.

I’m housebound with Covid and making brandy butter for 20. Cent get out to buy vanilla pod so will vanilla essence do?

So you were housebound so as not to spread your germs, but it was all right to make this for 20 people?
