Reduce Sugar & Sweetener Replacement
Reducing sugar should not mean compromising taste. Kefiplant helps food and beverage manufacturers reduce sugar and replace sweeteners with a natural alternative, while maintaining a clean, balanced sweetness profile without unwanted aftertaste.
The challenge of reducing sugar.
Reducing sugar is more than a simple ingredient substitution. Sugar contributes to sweetness, flavor balance, body and mouthfeel. Replacing it with high-intensity sweeteners can also introduce bitterness, lingering sweetness or unwanted aftertaste. Successful sugar reduction means maintaining the taste, balance and sensory experience consumers expect.

Avoiding aftertaste
