Sodium Saccharin, also called saccharine, benzosulfimide, or E954, is a non-nutritive artificial sweetener.
Saccharin is about 500 times sweeter than sucrose, but has a bitter or metallic aftertaste, especially at high concentrations.
It is used to sweeten products, such as drinks, sweets, baked goods, tobacco products, excipients, and for masking the bitter taste of some medicines.
It appears as white crystals and is odorless.
Saccharin is heat-stable, it does not react chemically with other food ingredients; as such, it stores well.
Blends of saccharin with other sweeteners are often used to compensate for each sweetener’s weaknesses and faults.
