Description
Aspartame can be used as a saji,, low-calorie sweetening ingredient in liquids and drinks, as a high-intensity sweetener in dry mix products, as sugar substitute in table-top sweeteners and in a great number of semi-liquid and frozen products. It will provide a clean, sweet taste without and metallic aftertaste.
It can also function as a ftavour enhancer in certain applications.
Aspartame has 200 times the sweetness of sucrose. As a nutritive sweetener with a caloric value of 4 kcal g-1 only minute amounts are needed which means that it has virtually no caloric impact on the final product. It is also suitable for diabetics as it is a dipeptide-methyl ester but not a carbohydrate.
Aspartame can be used without restrictions in a great number of food applications as an intense sweetener, with the exception of those requiring prolonged high temperature treatment, such as baking or drying, and certain liquid applications in the neutral and alkaline pH range.
Aspartame does not provide any bulk, structure, mouthfeel or viscosity. Suitable bulking agents may be used together with aspartame in semi-liquid and solid foods, to substitute Jor certain bulk properties of sucrose.
Aspartame has proved a valuable addition to the fast-growing lowcalorie food sector, allowing the jormulation of 'light foods' with organoleptic properties very similar to those of full-calorie Jbod products.
Applications
