What Exactly Is Splenda (Sucralose)?
Though it has been commercially available in the United States for over a decade and in the European Union since 2005, Splenda is still thought of as a relatively new product in the artificial sweetener industry. This despite the fact that is it now an ingredient in thousands of products, ranging from breakfast cereals to yogurt and ice cream. One of the reasons Splenda has grown so fast in popularity is that, unlike other artificial sweeteners, Splenda does not break down at high temperatures, meaning that it can take the place of sugar in many products.
