Uses: In many countries of Europe, in the USA, and China Ace-k can be used in the production of foodstuffs, medicine and cosmetics, In food, it can be used in processing of table toppings, gum, instant coffee , instant tea , puddings, ice cream, confections, preserved fruits and vegetables, milk products, baked goods and beverages.

1.When Ace-k is used alone, approximately 800-1000mg/l or even less in beverages, satisfactory results are obtained.

2.As a sweetener, Ace-k adapts to all kinds of soft beverages, which include fruit juice, carbonate and lactic acid drinks due to its many chemical characteristics, e.g. stability in solution within the range of pH2~pH10 even at a temperature of 225 and in a solution. When used in combination with diabetin, glucose, high diabetin juice or cane sugar, Ace-k can improve taste and provide a synergistic sweetening effect, thus reduce the production cost. At the same time it can strengthen the beverage's consistency and degree of viscosity. It can also simplify the process by lessening the process of adding material and avoid cane sugar carbonization under high temperature.

3.When Ace-k is used in producing puddings and jams, some filling materials, such as sorbitol should be added together to prevent tooth decay. Compared to the cane sugar foodstuffs, the jelly puddings and jams which use Ace-k aren't subject to being infected by microorganisms in solution, which can be infiltrated by active matter even in low concentration.

4.Confection foods using Ace-k can also add sweet taste to obtain satisfactory sweetness, since fluffy sugar alcohol with low calories can provide product's necessary cubic capacity and structure, e.g., Ace-k in gum making process, we can make the product flavorful and sweet. Since the sweetness of Ace-k is quickly sensed, it is widely used in chewing gum.

5.Ace-k is used in processing many table toppings. since it can be available in different physical forms, such as sheet slice, pellet, powder and in solution. Ace-k is also used in to compound high concentration family table toppings, for it can dissolve well in water. Under normal conditions there is no question about the solution's shelf-life. Solid and powder table toppings are usually used in hot drinks at high temperatures where Ace-k's solubility and stability is especially good.

6.Ace-k is also used in oral hygiene production such as toothpaste, mouth washes and other oral hygiene agents which are usually bitter, due to the addition of a surface-active agent. Adding a sweetener and masking the flavor to cover the bitterness is excelled by the use of Ace-k as the best sweetener.
