Neotame, the chemical name is: N-[N-(3,3-dimethylbutyl)-L-α-aspartyl]-L-phenylalanine-1-methyl ester, it is a white crystalline powder , Containing about 4.5% crystal water, is a functional sweetener. It has pure sweetness, sweetness and harmony, very close to aspartame, without the bitterness and metallic taste often associated with other powerful sweeteners. The sweetness is 7000-13000 times sweeter than sucrose and 30-60 times sweeter than aspartame. The energy value is almost zero. It can remain stable under instantaneous high temperature conditions. In cake production, after baking at 450 0C, 85% of neotame is still present.
1. Application in canned fruit
Reduce the overall proportion of syrup, thereby reducing the phenomenon of fruit floating, without adding more fruit. In GB2760, the only sweetener that can be used in canned products is allowed. Neotame exhibits good stability during the heat treatment of canned products. Replace 40%-50% sucrose, reduce product cost. The product shelf life is 12-24 months. Flavor: sweet orange, bayberry, loquat, lychee, pineapple, longan. Recommended sweetness multiple: 6500-7000.
2. Application in Liangguo
Recommendations for the use of neotame: The amount of neotame (calculated relative to the sweetness of sucrose) accounts for about 30% of the total sweetness. It can be used in combination with sugar, aspartame, stevia, cyclamate and other sweeteners. The multiples of neotame used in plum is about 6500-7000 times, and in other cold fruits with less acidity, it can be used more than 7500 times. The amount of acid can be appropriately reduced. If there is no need to add acid, more acid can be removed as much as possible when washing the fruit embryos to balance the sweet-sour ratio.
3. Application in various beverages
Carbonated drinks: Neotame can last for 16 weeks in cola-type carbonated drinks. Consistent with the shelf life of low-energy carbonated beverages on the market. It can also be used in lemonade.
Non-carbonated beverages: Neotame can be used in hot-filled lemon tea, solid powdered beverages, yogurt and other foods, and the properties in these foods are very stable and of good quality.
Solid beverages: Partially replace granulated sugar with a proportion of 30%, which can reduce costs as much as possible without changing the taste of the original full sugar formula; instead of aspartame in the formula, the label does not need to indicate that it contains phenylalanine; Premix with powdered sugar or other powder additives at a ratio of 1-2%: Tests show that the concentrated neotame premix can be properly dispersed and adsorbed on the surface of the carrier; in the production of solid beverages, a small amount of raw materials should be premixed first For example, coloring and flavoring are very common, so the use of neotame is just a simple process; at the same time, mixing color and neotame in sugar can be used to visually observe the premix to ensure full mixing; the mixing time must be fully dispersed , But the time must be controlled to reduce powder flying.
4. Application in dairy beverages
The solid content of the product itself is relatively rich. Even if the sweetener is used, the consistency of the product may be lost, but it can be supplemented by the stabilizer of dairy products; PH 4.0-4.5 is the most suitable for neotame stability; Neotame is in the fermentation process Relatively stable; replacing part of the sucrose in these products with neotame reduces calories and potentially increases the nutritional value (milk replaces the volume of sucrose). The result is a healthier consumer product.
