What it is

A sweetener blend is a mixture of two or more different sweeteners, often including both nutritive (calorie-containing) and non-nutritive (zero-calorie) options. These blends are created to achieve a specific taste profile, sweetness intensity, and mouthfeel that a single sweetener might not provide. The exact composition can vary widely depending on the manufacturer's goals.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use sweetener blends to provide sweetness in foods and beverages while potentially reducing overall sugar content or calories. They can also help mask the aftertaste sometimes associated with non-nutritive sweeteners. These blends are commonly found in low-sugar or sugar-free products like baked goods, dairy products, beverages, and confectionery.

Health notes

Sweetener blends are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA when used as intended. The individual sweeteners within the blend are subject to their own regulatory reviews. For example, some non-nutritive sweeteners have been evaluated by JECFA and EFSA, with acceptable daily intake levels established. Evidence on the long-term health effects of consuming mixtures of sweeteners at typical dietary levels is still evolving, and research is ongoing.

Allergen info

Not a major allergen. Gluten status depends on the specific ingredients in the blend; some sweeteners may be derived from corn or wheat, but are typically highly purified.
