Fooditive Keto-Fructose sweetener from apples and pears

Friday, 09 August, 2024 | Supplied by: Fooditive Group


Fooditive Group, a Dutch plant-based ingredient manufacturer, has launched its plant-based sweetener Keto-Fructose (5-keto-D-fructose) in the US. The sugar alternative is currently undergoing FDA GRAS assessment.

The product is designed to provide sweetness while preserving all the vital functionalities of sugar. This enables food and beverage manufacturers to craft sugar-free products without compromising on taste, texture or shelf life.

Derived from apples and pears through a fermentation process, the ingredient is designed to replace sugar in applications including chocolate, baked goods, fruit fillings, glazes and beverages.

Waste side-streams from apple and pear processing are used to produce the sweetener, which is designed to mimic the flavour profile of sugar.
