Aspartame, as an important sweetener, is widely used in pharmaceutical processing and food processing, and its safety is very important. The chemical formula is C14H18N2O5, which exists in the state of white powder at room temperature. It is a natural functional oligosaccharide with high sweetness, non-deliquescence, and non-cavity. It can be eaten by diabetics. Because of its extremely low calorie and high sweetness, aspartame can be added to beverages, pharmaceutical products or sugar-free chewing gum as a sugar substitute. The calories of aspartame are about 16.75kJ/g .
In dry products such as solid powdered beverages and snack mixes, aspartame is very stable and the overall stability is similar to that of pure aspartame. Aspartame will undergo hydrolysis and cyclization in high-temperature environments, which limits its application in baked and fried foods that require high-temperature and long-term processing. However, if processed properly, aspartame can also be used in foods that require a certain degree of heat treatment, such as foods that require high-temperature short-term sterilization (132-138°C, 1min). Under other extreme conditions, such as frozen or quick-frozen foods, the amount of aspartame directly changed is very small.
