Hello everyone, I was just wondering if any of you might know of a sweetener which can be used that doesn't contain aspartame? Would like to do a rice pudding that I can share with my baby. Thank you

Just in case you don't know, despite being a natural healthy food honey shouldn't be given to baby's under one.
Something about it carrying spores which can harmful to undeveloped immune systems.
I put honey in mine and apple purée in for baby.
