Stevia powder, if that is the ingredient I am thinking of, that stuff works like dynamite on the derriere. Yes, it tastes great and it is sweet, but I definitely regret binge eating on a batch of cookies made with stevia powder one day.
Stevia powder is even listed on many websites that sell natural supplements as a laxative. The only thing sweet about stevia powder is the jokes you can play on your friends once they eat anything made with that stuff. It is even more entertaining if they have to sit through grid lock, rush hour traffic.
I would stick to the maple syrup. If you want the very best maple syrup in the world it is made in the province of Quebec, Canada. It is 100% authentic and is harvested from Canadian Maple trees. It is very expensive compared to what is available at many grocery stores (corn syrup with artificial maple flavouring). However, the taste and quality is well worth it–especially for Jennifer’s pancake recipes.
