Challenges When Reducing or Replacing Sugar
Sugar is more than just a sweetener: among other things, it masks unpleasant flavours, influences mouthfeel and contributes to flavour intensity. Balancing flavour, texture and functionality while complying with legal regulations and clean-label requirements as well as consumer preferences requires expertise.

This reduces exposure to sugar taxes, supports clean-label strategies and ensures product quality with natural, plant-based sweetness. Meet the expectations of health-conscious consumers by offering low- or no-sugar products that maintain the familiar taste and mouthfeel.
Redefine sweet by incorporating innovative ingredients that offer more than just sugary taste.
