Natural, zero calorie bulk sweeteners
Consumers are increasingly looking for healthier and more natural sweetener options. Many alternatives to sugar exist but very few can take on all the different aspects of sugar in food and drinks. Erythritol delivers “better for you” sweetness without excess calories – it is a bulk sweetener with zero caloric content but a full sugar taste profile. It can be considered natural because it occurs in nature, plant-based raw materials are used to manufacture it, and the process used to make it is a yeast fermentation. Erythritol can be used synergistically with other sweeteners, such as stevia, monk fruit, isomalt, maltitol, sucralose, aspartame, and acesulfame-K.
