Mono sweeteners

Моноподсластители

Taste profiles of sweeteners do not always match those of sugar completely. Sweetness can be felt later or earlier, persist longer or disappear immediately, even have a different flavor.

Combined sweetener mixes are used to make the sweetness profile of the product more like the sugar profile. However, the GIORD range also contains intense mono sweeteners and natural sugar substitutes.
