Sunett is the ideal partner in sweetening systems with a range of caloric and non-caloric sweeteners, such as aspartame, sucralose, neotame or sucrose. Blends with Sunett are ideal for beverages as they offer a sweet, reliable taste that promotes the quick release of flavors. Customized blending combinations with Sunett offer benefits not only for diet, light and ‘mid-calorie’ drinks but also for traditionally positioned, fully-sugared carbonated soft drinks, iced teas, fruit-flavored beverages and dry mixes. Likewise in dairy products, individually optimized blends with Sunett delivers great taste with reduced calories and reliable stability. Additionally, Sunett can be applied in candy, gums and chocolate, baked goods, dips and dressings, table sweeteners, and a range of vitamins and pharmaceutical products.

200 times sweeter than sugar and characterized by fast-acting impact sweetness, Sunett remains stable through a broad range of pH values and temperatures. Nutrinova’s patent portfolio for Sunett covers its production process and various acesulfame K applications.
