acesulfame

Description:
Acesulfame, also known as acesulfame potassium or Ace-K, is a non-nutritive sweetener commonly used in food and beverage products. It is characterized by its high sweetness intensity, estimated to be approximately 200 times sweeter than sucrose, which allows for its use in very small quantities. Acesulfame is stable under heat and over a wide range of pH levels, making it suitable for various applications, including baking and cooking. It is often used in combination with other sweeteners to enhance sweetness profiles and mask any bitter aftertaste. The substance is considered safe for consumption, having undergone extensive safety evaluations by regulatory agencies such as the FDA and EFSA. Acesulfame is typically found in powdered or liquid form and is soluble in water. Its chemical structure includes a sulfonamide group, contributing to its sweet taste. Additionally, it is calorie-free, making it a popular choice for low-calorie and sugar-free products. However, some consumers may have concerns regarding artificial sweeteners, leading to ongoing discussions about their long-term health effects.
