Neotame is a high-intensity artificial sweetener that is approximately 8,000 times sweeter than sugar. It is structurally similar to aspartame but is much sweeter and more stable under high temperatures and pH levels. Neotame is commonly used in the food industry as a sugar substitute in a variety of products, including baked goods, confectionery items, and beverages. It can also be used as a flavor enhancer in some foods, such as chewing gum and candy. Neotame is a popular choice for food manufacturers looking to create healthier, lower-calorie products while still maintaining the desired sweetness and texture.
