Pharmacology
Sucralose + Acesulfame Potassium is a non-caloric sweetener. Most of what is swallowed isn't broken down by the body, and that is why it adds no calories.
Sucralose is 600 times as sweet as sucrose (table sugar), and Acesulfame Potassium is 200 times as sweet. Compared with Aspartame, Sucralose is 3 times as sweet, while Acesulfame Potassium is about as sweet as Aspartame.
The two are blended to give a taste closer to sugar. Each one masks the aftertaste of the other, and together they have a synergistic effect, so the blend is sweeter than either component alone. Sucralose + Acesulfame Potassium also stays stable under heat and across a broad range of pH conditions.
