Herbasweet is made from juice extracted and dried apple components. To guarantee a constant quality of Herbasweet the careful selection of the raw material is a decisive product factor.

The apple specific sugars are extracted from the cells of the apples by hot water extraction. Through further processing steps the sugars are separated from the other components.

The extract obtained is de-starched, de-ionised, de-colourized and de-flavoured by a special refinement process. The finished product is a high quality, universally applicable sweetening agent.

Herbasweet AS 01 and AS 02

With the support of the most modern technology the minerals, fruit acids as well as the natural colouring are extracted from the concentrated fruit extract. The concentrated sweetener is used for sweetening food of all kind. The outstanding characteristics are the light colour, the mainly neutral smell and taste and the high fructose content as well as the well-balanced sweetening power, similar to that of sucrose. Herbasweet AS 01 and Herbasweet AS 02 differ in the soluble solid content (chart below), whereas Herbasweet AS 02 is adjusted to soluble solids of approx. 78g / 100g; this is especially important when using Herbasweet in the production of food with a low water content.
