The European regulation of sweeteners has recently been changed with the publication and implementation by Member States of Directive 94/35/EC, which authorizes the use of six bulk sweeteners and six intense sweeteners for the formulation of reduced energy and/or non-sugar-added foods. An update of the technological properties of the high intensity sweeteners presently authorized in the EU is presented. We also report on the use of sweetener combinations as a means to optimize the sensory properties of the finished product and reduce sweetening costs.

Key Words: sweeteners • legislation • European Union
