Molecular formula: C4H10O4
A white, anhydrous, non-hygroscopic, crystalline substance, erythritol presents a mild sweetness and an appearance similar to sucrose. As a bulk sweetener, erythritol provides volume, texture, and microbiologic stability similar to sucrose. It is soluble in water and slightly soluble in alcohol.
Consumers are increasingly looking for healthier and more natural sweetener options. Many alternatives to sugar exist but very few can take on all the different aspects of sugar in food and drinks. Erythritol delivers "better for you" sweetness, it is a bulk sweetener with zero caloric content but a full sugar taste profile. Erythritol has the highest digestive tolerance compared to other polyols and masks the aftertaste of intense sweeteners. It can be considered natural because it occurs in nature, plant-based raw materials are used to manufacture it, and the process used to make it is yeast fermentation. Erythritol can be used synergistically with other sweeteners, such as stevia, monk fruit, isomalt, maltitol, sucralose, aspartame, and acesulfame-K.
