The Sweegen Sweetensify™ Flavors are the latest addition to the brand's sweet protein technology product that's formulated with a sugar-like experience in mind without the associated calories. The product is reported to help modulate and improve sweet flavors to achieve a sugar-like experience that is perfect for increasing the health-focused nature of a wide range of food products. The products include brazzein and thaumatin II, which work in different ways with taste receptors to achieve the right balance of flavor and sweetness.
Vice President of Global Innovation Casey McCormick commented on Sweegen Sweetensify™ Flavors saying, "The flavor expression enabled by Sweetensify Flavors optimizes the sensory experience and enables a more sugar-like taste. It is substantially better than any previous technology. We target taste receptors on a biochemistry level that others simply cannot."
