Zerose™ erythritol standard granular has been developed for use in sugar-free, calorie-reduced, and sugar-reduced crystallized confectionery, fruit preparations, jams, baked goods, condiments, sauces, toppings, syrups, chocolate coatings, frozen dairy and non-dairy desserts, and beverages. The sensorial properties of Zerose™ erythritol, such as flavor, mouthfeel and sweetness, make it a good complement to high potency sweeteners in soft drinks and help to mask the bitter taste in beverages, providing greater shelf stability.
