    I made this for an Xmas gathering and everyone loved it. It is a very light lemon flavor, not strong at all. It was a great snack to have lying on the coffee table for people to snack on before and after dinner. I re-did the nutritional info though, and came up with about 75 calories/serving. - 12/14/09

    Originally I listed 1.5 cups of powered sugar under ingredients (which does come out to about 75 calories), but only 1/2 cup under what I actually used. The half cup is correct. My apologies.
