Sucralose (E955)

Sucralose (trichlorogalactosucrose, TGS) was discovered by Tate & Lyle in the 1970s. It is 600 times sweeter than sugar and has a sugar-like taste.

Its main advantage is that it is very soluble and therefore useful in concentrated products such as dispense syrups. It is also very stable, meaning that there is no loss of sweetness over the product shelf life.
