Sucralose is a non-nutritive sweetener. The majority of ingested sucralose is not
broken down by the body, so it is noncaloric. In the European Union, it
is also known under the E number E955. Sucralose is about 320 to 1,000
times as sweet as sucrose, twice as sweet as saccharin, and three times
as sweet as aspartame. It is stable under heat and over a broad range of
pH conditions. Therefore, it can be used in baking or in products that
require a longer shelf life. The commercial success of sucralose-based
products stems from its favorable comparison to other low-calorie
sweeteners in terms of taste, stability, and safety - See more at:
