Artificial sweeteners are sugar substitutes, which have a sweet taste and are produced synthetically. As of now they are used as a sugar alternative since they contain low calories, and help maintain low blood sugar levels. They are widely used in processed foods such as powdered drink mixes, candies, jams & jellies, baked goods, dairy products, and other similar food & beverages to maintain the taste and simultaneously make it healthier. Major artificial sweeteners include aspartame, saccharin, and sodium benzoate. Aspartame is widely used as a table top sweetener in the market. It is around 200 times sweeter than ordinary sugar and is used in low calorie desserts, sugar-free chewing gums, cereals, tea, coffee, yogurt, milk formulations, etc.

Irrespective of these challenges, consumers constant desire for tasty and sweetened food despite rising obesity rates makes way for the increasing demand for artificial sweeteners, which is expected to create numerous opportunities for the market growth.
