DaVinci Syrups
I have read that some people use the sugar free DaVinci syrups and I was wondering what are some different ways to use them in recipes? I was looking at the website and they have some yummy sounding flavors, but I am unsure HOW to use them. I am not a coffee drinker, but do you mix the syrups in water, milk, etc??
HELP!

I mostly use them in my protein supplements. In the morning I have FiberOne cereal with unsweetened soy milk and a glug of hazelnut syrup I also will mix lactaid cottage cheese with chopped up strawberries and a little raspberry syrup. I made brownies with Splenda a few weeks ago and added a little hazelnut syrup and that was really yummy!
I don't really know alot about how to use them, but I have a couple of things that I do. I love to mix the raspberry one into hot chocolate as I have always loved that combination. I also like the caramel one in oatmeal. The coconut is good in hot chocolate, too. I am not a coffee drinker either, but have come up with a concoction I like: I mix a spoon of instant decaf coffe, and a spoon or two of hazelnut syrup into a hot chocolate mix. It makes a great drink with just a hint of coffee.
Have fun experimenting, Vicki

Chocolate Raspberry Mousse
Chocolate & raspberry are a classic combination of flavors. For a richer, more decadent flavor, try using DaVinci Gourmet All Natural Wild Raspberry Syrup in place of the DaVinci Gourmet Classic Raspberry Syrup.
Ingredients
1/4 C Da Vinci Gourmet Raspberry Classic Syrup
2 eggs, separated
4 oz semi-sweet chocolate, melted
1 C heavy cream
Directions:
Finely chop chocolate. Melt chocolate in a double boiler; set aside. Bring Da Vinci Gourmet Raspberry syrup to a simmer in a small saucepan. Slowly whisk warm raspberry syrup into egg yolks; strain. Whisk yolk/syrup mixture until light and fluffy. Fold melted chocolate into yolk mixture; set aside. With an electric mixer, whisk egg whites until soft peaks form. Fold egg whites in to chocolate mixture 1/3 at a time. Whip heavy cream to soft peaks. Fold cream into chocolate mixture 1/3 at a time. Once you are done folding, spoon the mousse into serving dishes & refrigerate for at least three hours before serving.
