summary

An artificial, non-saccharide sweetener that is produced by soaking a mixture of aspartame and acesulfame potassium in an acidic solution and allowing it to crystallize. Aspartame is 200 times sweeter than sucrose and it is due to this property that makes it the option for low calorie diet drinks as only a very small amount is required to produce the levels of sweetness.

Aspartame has been approved for use in over 100 countries including by the FDA and the European Food Safety Authority concluded that it is safe for human consumption including children and pregnant women.
