Acesulfame potassium is a no-calorie sweetener that is used in foods and beverages to provide sweetness without the added calories contained in sugars.
Originally developed by German researchers in 1967, acesulfame potassium was first approved for use in Europe in 1983.
Five years later, in 1988, it was approved in the U.S. Today, it is often used in combination with other low- and no-calorie sweeteners, such as aspartame and sucralose, to provide a more sugar-like taste than acesulfame potassium provides on its own.
Like other low- and nocalorie sweeteners, acesulfame potassium is intensely sweet.
It is about 200 times sweeter than sucrose (table sugar), so only small amounts are used to match the sweetness provided by sugar.
Acesulfame potassium retains its sweetness at a wide range of temperatures and in many food-processing conditions, which allows it to be used as an ingredient in a variety of food products, including baked goods, beverages, candies, chocolates, dairy products,
desserts, and more.
