Abstract
A sweetener concentrate containing sucralose and having improved thermal stability comprises particles of substantially non-crystalline sucralose dispersed evenly throughout, and adhering to, a water soluble oligosaccharide, the concentrate containing between about 20% and 80% sucralose on a dry weight basis. The oligosaccharide is preferably a glucose oligosaccharide such as maltodextrin. The concentrate can be prepared by forming a co-solution of the sucralose and oligosaccharide in water which is then dried. Other ingredients such as other high intensity sweeteners and flavorings may also be included.
