Acesulfame Potassium (Ace-K)
Acesulfame Potassium (Ace-K) is a non-nutritive sweetener approximately 200× sweeter than sucrose, produced by the reaction of acetoacetic acid with sulfamide. Unlike aspartame, Ace-K is completely stable at high temperatures and across a wide pH range, making it an ideal co-sweetener in baked goods, heat-processed beverages, and UHT dairy products. It is most commonly used in blends with sucralose, aspartame, or stevia — where the synergistic interaction allows both sweeteners to be used at lower doses, reducing bitterness and aftertaste while achieving a cleaner, more rounded sweetness profile.

Key Benefits
- 200× sweetness potency — enables zero-calorie sweetening at very low inclusion levels (0.01–0.03%).
- Exceptional thermal and pH stability — fully suitable for baking, autoclaving, and UHT processing.
- Synergistic with sucralose and aspartame — blending allows 30–50% reduction in individual sweetener dose.
- No impact on blood glucose or insulin — safe for diabetic and ketogenic formulations.
- Globally approved (FDA, EFSA, JECFA) with decades of safety data in food applications.
