Yes, you can replace glycerin with light corn syrup in making alcohol-free vanilla extract. However, keep in mind that light corn syrup is sweeter and may alter the flavor profile slightly. Additionally, corn syrup may not extract flavors as effectively as glycerin, so you might need to adjust the steeping time to achieve the desired vanilla intensity.
Karo light corn syrup should be available in any grocery store in the syrup isle.
There shouldn't be a problem with that substitution.
Light corn syrup is a clear, sweet syrup made from cornstarch, while dark corn syrup is similar but has a darker color and a richer flavor due to the addition of molasses or caramel.

Nutritionally, both types are similar, primarily composed of sugars.

No. high fructose corn syrup and corn syrup are distinctly different products. When Karo was introduced in 1902, it did not contain high fructose corn syrup. Sometime in the 1970's, it was added to the Karo light and pancake syrups. As a result of consumer requests, the high fructose corn syrup has now been removed and all Karo products are high fructose corn syrup free.
To replace corn syrup in caramel, you can use alternatives like honey, maple syrup, or agave nectar, which provide similar sweetness and moisture. For a more neutral flavor, light molasses or brown rice syrup can also work well. Additionally, you can use a combination of granulated sugar and a small amount of water to create a syrup-like consistency. Keep in mind that the flavor and texture may vary slightly with these substitutes.
