  • Try using half sugar and half Splenda, worked perfectly. Also, canning hint, use clean HOT jars to pack in. Then seal with lids soaking in boiling water for one minute. When you add the hot pickles to cold jars and use cold lids it lowers the temperature quickly and you could lose a tight seal.
