Instead of using splena or aspartame I suggest using granulated Xylitol for sweetening your pudding or dessert.
It is a 5 chain sugar that bacteria and virus eat but cannot digest it, so it kills them. Therefore it has probiotic qualities and helps PREVENT cavities, bacterial infections in the stomach, and it has a very low glycemic index.. It is a natural product made out of birch trees. It tastes more like sugar than the other sweeteners, has no aftertaste, reduces sugar calories by 40%, inhibits yeast growth in the stomach, contributes to b vitamin/calcium absorption.
It's only problem is it can cause diahhrea in large amounts due to it's fibre, and it won't help breads raise (because it doesnt feed yeast).
It is used cup for cup in place of sugar.
