The Sweeteners & Healthier Demand
The demand for natural sweeteners is increasing steadily due to the rising prevalence of obesity. People are going towards healthy, taste, and nutritional products.
Choosing sweeteners can pose a challenge, as substitutes may struggle to mimic the taste and texture of products familiar to the market.
Sweetener Flexibility to a Healthy Combination
According to a study conducted by Washington State University (WSU), combining sweeteners could result in a taste that is more widely accepted in food products, offering greater flexibility for product developers.
During a test with a baked treat, coconut sweetener emerged as the top choice for baked goods. The formulation mainly consisted of coconut sweetener, making up more than 80%, complemented by a mix of stevia and agave. This indicates that coconut sweetener not only offers a desirable taste but also possesses the versatility to complement other sweeteners effectively. The addition of stevia and agave further enhanced the taste profile, demonstrating the potential for synergistic effects when combining different sweeteners.
Overall, the findings underscore the importance of exploring diverse sweetener combinations to optimize taste and appeal in food products, potentially offering consumers a wider range of flavorful and satisfying options.
