What sweetener do you recommend I use for this dip?

I LOVE using Lakanto Classic Monkfuit Sweetener and Lakanto Golden or Brown Monkfruit Sweetener in my recipes. The Lakanto Classic is a zero point white granulated sugar substitute and the Lakanto “Brown” is a zero point brown sugar substitute. 

 Lakanto MonkFruit Sweetener is a zero glycemic, zero calorie and all natural sugar substitute. It is by far the best tasting sugar alternative and has zero aftertaste or gritty texture like some of the sugar alternatives have.

These sweetener have a 1:1 ratio to real sugar-so if you were to use a different sugar substitute you will want to use the measurement that would be equal to real sugar.

What size was the circular tray you used for the gingerbread cheese dip. Looks awesome. Was it 18 inches like the one used for the christmas tree on cheese, grapes etc.?
