"Sweeteners and Sugar Alternatives in Food Technology provides the information required for sweetening and functional solutions, enabling manufacturers to produce processed foods that not only taste and perform as well as sugar-based products, but also offer consumer benefits such as calorie reduction, dental health benefits, digestive health benefits and improvements in long term disease risk through strategies such as dietry glycaemic control." (Food & Drink Technology, June 2006) "This book provides a comprehensive overview of sweetening and bulking solutions and the nutritional enhancement of foods. Manufacturers should find it a key source of information when it comes to the production of appealing low sugar, no added sugar, sugar free, reduced calorie, high fibre, low glycaemic and tooth-friendly food products with a range of corresponding consumer health benefits." (European Baker, May 2006)
