Acésulfame K is 150-200 times sweeter than sugar. Acésulfame K is a very stable crystalline sweetener, with a chemical structure similar to saccharin. Acésulfame K is commonly used in combination with aspartame or other sweeteners because it has a synergistic effect to enhance and maintain the sweet taste of foods and beverages.

Aspartame is an artificial sweetener discovered in 1965. It is a dipeptide composed of two natural amino acids, L-aspartic acid, and L-phenylalanine, the latter in the form of a methyl ester.

Cyclamate (or sodium cyclamate) is an artificial sweetener discovered in 1937 at the University of Illinois by a student named Michael Sveda.

Cyclamate is also known under the number E952.

Neohesperidin dihydrochalcone is an intense artificial sweetener (E959) with a high sweetness level (1,500-1,800 times the molar sweetness of sucrose).

Xylitol is a polyol sweetener, also known as birch sugar.

Neotame (E961) is an artificial sweetener which belongs to the family of new generation sweeteners, derived from aspartame.

Fructose is a simple sugar naturally present in fruits and honey. It is also manufactured in the industry and available on the market as a sweetening agent.

Primarily used as a sweetener to impart a sweet flavor without adding significant calories.

Stevia is a sweetener extracted from the leaves of Stevia rebaudiana. It is 250 times sweeter than table sugar and has a licorice aftertaste.

Sucralose is an intense artificial sweetener, discovered in 1976. It has a sweetening power 600 to 650 times greater than sugar. It is marketed in France under the trade names Canderel or Aqualoz. It is synthesized from selective chlorination of sucrose.

Trehalose is a sugar, more precisely a non-reducing disaccharide. In contrast to sucrose, which is composed of a glucose molecule linked to a fructose molecule.

Erythritol is a natural sweetener that is part of the polyol family.

E965, also known as maltitol, is a polyol sweetener from the polyol family (or sugar alcohols).

Anhydrous dextrose does not contain water and is produced in crystalline or powder form. Dextrose, like fructose and glucose, is a monosaccharide also known as a simple sugar.

Monohydrate dextrose is another name for glucose, which is a monosaccharide sugar.

E1200-dextrose (Polydextrose) Thickening Additive, a polymer of glucose and sorbitol, is produced from glucose, sorbitol (E420), and citric acid (E330). In the human body, it behaves like dietary fiber.
