Why does Cascade Fresh use fruit juice as a sweetener instead of sugar?
Because it’s healthier and more natural. We have heard from many people who are sensitive to refined sugar that they do not react to the fruit juice sweetener in Cascade Fresh yogurt. Our fruit juice sweetener is made from peach and pineapple concentrate that has no added sugar. The sweetness comes only from the fruit. Our 6-ounce yogurts contain approximately three quarters of an ounce of fruit juice concentrate by weight, which is about seventy percent natural fruit sugar. This is half an ounce or about one tablespoon, considerably less sweetener than most other yogurt brands.
