Can you replace corn syrup with vegetable glycerin?

It depends on the recipe and what the intended outcome needs to be. Glycerin (vegetable for food use) provides more elasticity and helps the food substance to retain moisture so that it does not begin to crackle and/or flake. For example, if you are making an icing for a cake, and the recipe requires glycerin (vegetable, of course), then you should not substitute corn syrup, otherwise you could end up with a icing that looks like a dried mud flat out in some desert. Corn syrup is a glucose based concoction and is high in caloric content as well. Glycerin is low in caloric content, provides elasticity, and retains moisture.

Glycerin is a colorless liquid used in soaps, skin treatments, cooking, animal care, crafts, and fine arts.

The source of this information, and more details are available at the eHow article linked below. In addition, vegetable glycerin, which has a rich oily texture, is a hypoallergenic glycerin derived entirely from vegetable oil (non-vegetable glycerin is usually derived from pork or other animal fats). All glycerin with a "USP" (United States Parmacopoeia) mark is safe for food and cosmetic purposes. Vegetable glycerin can be purchased online at the Netrition link below.
