Acesulfame Potassium Acesulfame potassium is renowned in the food processing industry as a popular sweetener. First synthesized in 1967, this remarkable compound—also known as acesulfame K or Ace K—is a calorie-free sugar substitute, standing out as an exceptional choice for those seeking sweetness without the calories. Impressively, acesulfame potassium is 200 times sweeter than sucrose, on par with aspartame, though it may have a slightly bitter aftertaste at high concentrations, similar to saccharin. Frequently, it is expertly blended with other sweeteners such as sucralose or aspartame, creating a more sucrose-like taste by masking aftertastes or enhancing sweetness through synergistic effects. Its smaller particle size compared to sucrose ensures that mixes with other sweeteners achieve a seamless uniformity, optimizing taste and texture.
