application of acesulfame k
acesulfame k is often blended with other sweeteners (usually sucralose or aspartame). these blends are reputed to give a more sucrose like taste whereby each sweetener masks the other's aftertaste, and/or exhibits a synergistic effect by which the blend is sweeter than its components.
unlike aspartame, acesulfame k is stable under heat, even under moderately acidic or basic conditions, allowing it to be used as a food additive in baking, or in products that require a long shelf life. in carbonated drinks, it is almost always used in conjunction with another sweetener, such as aspartame or sucralose. it is also used as a sweetener in protein shakes and pharmaceutical products, especially chewable and liquid medications, where it can make the active ingredients more palatable.
