Introduction

Abstract

• Global Sweeteners ? Tailoring Solutions to Consumer Needs.
• This report focuses on ingredients that are used specifically to replace sugar and add sweetness to finished foods and drinks, reducing calorie content at the same time.
• It covers both bulk (or polyol) sweeteners, which add volume to the end product as well as sweetness and which deliver equivalent or slightly lower levels of sweetness than sucrose, and intense sweeteners, which need only be used in small volumes as they have sweetness levels far higher than those of standard sucrose.
• The report does not cover the more basic sugars or syrups commonly used in food and drinks.
• Euromonitor International' s Ingredients global reports provide in-depth strategic analysis of the latest trends in the market across key product sectors.
• Sales are analysed at world, regional and country level.
