Product Overview

Sucralose (Cas No.:  56038-13-2, E No.: E955), is a popular zero-calorie high-intensity sweetener. It delivers sweetness around 600 times that of sucrose, featuring clean sugar-like taste, outstanding heat resistance and stability across a wide pH range. It is widely applied in beverages, baked goods, confectionery, dairy products and oral care formulations for sugar-free and low-calorie food development.

 

Key Characteristics

1.High sweetness intensity, roughly 600 times sweeter than sucrose, only small dosage required

2.Zero calorie, hardly absorbed by human body, suitable for low-sugar and sugar-free formulas

3.Clean taste similar to sucrose, without bitter or metallic aftertaste

4.Excellent thermal stability, retains sweetness under high temperature baking and sterilization

5.Stable over wide pH range, resistant to degradation during long shelf-life storage

6.White crystalline powder, good water solubility and easy to incorporate into formulations

Main Functions

High Intensity Sweetener: Provides strong sweetness at low addition level, helping cut formula cost.

Zero Calorie Sweetener: Does not contribute calories, ideal for sugar-free and low-calorie product development.

Heat-Stable Sweetener: Maintains sweetness during high-temperature processing such as baking and sterilization.

pH-Stable Sweetener: Keeps stable in acidic and neutral food systems for long shelf-life products.

Taste Modifier: Offers clean sucrose-like sweetness to improve the overall flavour profile of food and drinks.

 

Main Applications

Beverages Core application, used in carbonated drinks, fruit juices, iced teas, functional drinks and dairy beverages for sugar-free formulations.

Baked Goods Applied in cakes, cookies and pastries. Its thermal stability preserves sweetness during high-temperature baking.

Confectionery Suitable for hard candy, soft candy, chewing gum and chocolate.

Dairy & Desserts Used in yogurt, flavoured milk, ice cream and low-calorie desserts.

Nutritional Supplements Added into protein powder, sports nutrition and dietary supplement products.

Oral Care Products Used in toothpaste and mouthwash to improve taste without promoting tooth decay.
