Product Description
Neotame Description
Neotame is a no-calorie sweetener, which is a derivative of the dipeptide composed of the amino acids, aspartic acid and phenylalanine. The components of neotame are joined together to form a uniquely sweet ingredient.
Neotame is sweeter than other marketed no-calorie sweeteners and is approximately 30-40 times sweeter than aspartame; 7,000-13,000 times sweeter than sugar. Neotame will deliver comparable sweetness to sucrose in various applications.
Neotame Application
Has applicability in foods and beverages, including but not limited to, chewing gum, carbonated soft drinks, refrigerated and non-refrigerated ready-to-drink beverages, tabletop sweeteners, frozen desserts and novelties, puddings and fillings, yogurt-type products, baked goods and candies. It can also be used in both cooking and baking applications.
Neotame Safety:
Extensive research has been conducted on neotame to establish its safety as a sweetening ingredient. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) reviewed over 100 scientific studies before approving neotame.
The FDA approved the use of neotame as a general purpose sweetener in July 2002. Neotame also is approved for use in Australia and New Zealand.
