Product Properties
Aspartame is a non-carbohydrate artificial sweetener, which has a sweet taste, almost no calories and carbohydrates. Aspartame is 200 times as sweet sucrose, which can be completely absorbed without any harm to the body. Aspartame is safe, pure taste. Aspartame is widely used in beverage, candy, food and all kinds of health care products.
The quality of aspartame varies, mainly in the following aspects:
1. Raw material source and purity: The quality of aspartame is affected by the raw material source and purity. High-quality aspartame usually uses raw materials with higher purity to ensure its sweetness, taste and safety. If the purity is lower, there may be unnecessary impurities, affecting the quality of the product and consumer experience.
2. Production process: Different manufacturers may use different production processes to make aspartame. More advanced and strict production processes can ensure the stability and consistency of the product, while low-quality production processes may result in unstable sweetness, high impurity content or peculiar smell.
3. Stability and heat resistance: The stability and heat resistance of aspartame vary depending on the quality. Generally speaking, aspartame is not very stable at high temperatures, and it is easy to decompose and lose its sweetness. Therefore, aspartame products of better quality usually indicate the appropriate temperature range for use to avoid failure during cooking or baking.
4. Taste difference: Even if the sweetness is the same, aspartame of different qualities may have different tastes. High-quality aspartame usually has no noticeable aftertaste or odor, while some low-quality aspartame may leave an unpleasant aftertaste in the mouth.
5. Food safety and compliance: High-quality aspartame products should meet food safety standards and meet the quality standards required by food regulatory agencies in various countries (such as FDA, European Food Safety Authority, etc.). Low-quality aspartame may not have passed sufficient safety testing and pose potential health risks.
6. Packaging and storage: High-quality aspartame usually has good packaging that can effectively prevent moisture and light, ensuring that it is not affected by environmental factors during storage and maintains stable quality. Poor-quality packaging may cause the product to absorb moisture, deteriorate or change taste.
Therefore, when purchasing aspartame, it is very important to choose a reputable supplier that meets food safety standards to ensure the quality, taste and safety of the product.
