Aspartame acesulfame salt
What is Aspartame acesulfame salt?
Aspartame acesulfame salt (CAS 106372-55-8), also known commercially as Twinsweet and approved as E962, is a high-intensity sweetener combining aspartame and acesulfame in a fixed molar ratio.
Where is Aspartame acesulfame salt used?
- Carbonated soft drinks and flavored waters: clean, sugar-like sweetness with reduced aftertaste compared to single-sweetener systems
- Sugar-free chewing gum and hard candies: blend stability under processing conditions supports consistent flavor delivery
- Yogurts and ice creams: rounds out sweetness and eliminates bitterness sometimes associated with acesulfame K alone
- Tabletop sweetener blends and dietary supplement formats: calorie reduction as a primary formulation target
- The combination delivers a synergistic sweetness profile that exceeds the individual potency of either component.
