Sweetener Sweetener

Since its introduction in France in 1979, aspartame has grown to be the world's most popular low calorie sweetener. Aspartame is made from two amino acids, which are the building blocks of all protein. Because aspartame has a clean, sweet taste but virtually no calories, it is the ideal alternative to sugar. Aspartame also contributes to good dental health. Although products with aspartame are of special benefit to diabetics and those who wish to lose weight, they are widely used by people who simply want to maintain a well-balanced, healthy diet. Aspartame is used in many food and beverage products, including soft drinks, yogurts, desserts, confectionary, hot chocolate and table-top sweeteners.


AminoSweet® is Ajinomoto's brand of aspartame. Ajinomoto Sweeteners Europe S.A.S. manufactures and sells AminoSweet to the food, beverage and pharmaceutical industries throughout Europe, the CIS, the Middle East and Africa from its headquarters located in northern France. Quality assurance and environmental safety are top priorities for The Ajinomoto Group and are fully integrated into all aspects of production. Ajinomoto is the only aspartame supplier that can offer the security of multi-sourcing: the company can supply aspartame not only from its plant in France, but also from its manufacturing facilities in Japan.
