    [0063] To address the concern with nutritive and prior art nonnutritive sweeteners, the inventive nonnutritive sweetener composition utilizes six commercially available substrates in an inventive ratio and an inventive method of manufacturing the composition. The sweetener has no material effect on blood sugar and a minimal effect on serum insulin. The non-nutritive food sweetener utilizes erythritol, allulose, commonly known as D-Psicose or D-allulose; soluble corn and/or tapioca fiber; stevia leaf extract (in the form of isolated steviol glycosides from diterpene glycosides; specifically, stevioside, rebaudioside A and/or rebaudioside M in a concentration of greater-than or equal to 97% and 95%, respectively; salt (sodium chloride); and a natural masking agent.

    [0064] Below is the Fischer Model illustrating the similarities between caloric fructose (D-Fructose) and low-caloric allulose (D-Psicose); one of the sweeteners found in the invention.

    ##STR00001##

    [0065] Below is the Bond-line Model of fructose (D-Fructose) and allulose (D-Psicose).

    ##STR00002##

    [0066] The similarities between fructose and glucose (the two monosaccharides found in common table/baking sugar or sucrose) and erythritol, which is a known acceptable low-caloric substitution for sucrose are shown below.

    [0067] In the present invention, the ingredient allulose is used because it does not possess the negative characteristics of sugar alcohols and artificial or natural sweeteners. Allulose is a commonly less used sugar and is an epimer of fructose with the reversal of the H and OH group on carbon-three. Allulose is approximately 0.7 times the sweetness intensity of sucrose but functions similarly in baking because it has the capacity to add texture, sweetness, retain water (tenderness), suspend other constituents in solution, impact the browning of food through the maillard reaction, act as a preservative and contribute flavor & color.

    [0068] The second sweetener present in the formulation is erythritol, a sugar alcohol or polyol, which is produced via fermentation of starch or sucrose. Erythritol does not have the same functionality as sucrose in cooking and baking because it does not contribute to the maillard reaction nor does it contribute to color or flavor. Additionally, erythritol is approximately 0.6-0.7 times the sweetness intensity of sucrose and possesses a cooling effect on the tongue. However, erythritol does provide bulk, similar to sucrose, and does not have undesirable characteristics because it is non-glycemic and does not negatively affect the gastrointestinal tract.

    [0069] The final ingredient in the formulation is stevia leaf extract in the form of the steviol glycosides, rebudioside A and/or rebudioside M. Stevia is about 250-350 times the sweetness intensity of sucrose but possesses none of the beneficial qualities of sucrose incooking or baking.

    [0070] The unique combination of sweeteners within the formulation and manufacturing methods of the invention, based on their percentages and quality, have the functional and organoleptic characteristics more similar to sucrose than other nonnutritive sweeteners, such that the are well suited for cooking. Furthermore, the combination of erythritol, allulose, soluble corn and/or tapioca fiber, stevia leaf extract, salt (sodium chloride) and a natural masking flavor does not materially affect blood glucose or insulin; whereas sucrose possesses glucogenic and insulinogenic properties. This is evidenced by the peer-reviewed trials conducted on allulose, erythritol, and stevia leaf extract showing a calorie content of 0.1 kcal/g, 0.2 kcal/gram, and 0 kcal/g, respectively.

    [0071] Furthermore, the glycemic index of erythritol, allulose, soluble corn and/or tapioca fiber, stevia leaf extract, salt (sodium chloride) and a natural masking flavor is one (1), one (1), twenty-five (25), zero (0), zero (zero), and zero (0), respectively. The most notable quality of the combination of erythritol, allulose, soluble corn and/or tapioca fiber, stevia leaf extract, salt (sodium chloride) and a natural masking flavor is its one-to-one replacement by weight in cooking and baking recipes for sucrose. This characteristic makes the proposed sweetening blend unique. Due to the properties of the inventive sweetener, it can be used across various food products including dairy, cheese and related cheese products, frozen desserts, bakery products (including mixes), canned fruit, fruit butters, jellies, preserves, and related products, fruit pies, vegetable juices, egg products, cacao products, beverages product, sweeteners and tables syrups, food dressings, flavorings. Formulas for the various food products are provided below as different embodiments of the invention.

    [0072] Sucrose is generally preferred in most baking because of its physical properties. Baked goods using sucrose are generally considered to have a superior texture, flavor and consistency. Many nonnutritive sweeteners have an open chain structure, similar to dissolved glucose. In addition, different forms of sucrose, e.g. powdered sugar and granulated sugar, are used for different baked goods due to the properties they impart to foods prepared with them. Sucrose is generally preferred over fructose and glucose because of these properties. However, many nonnutritive sweeteners, and many natural sugars such as glucose, have inferior physical properties so that they are not well suited for cooking. Without being bound by theory, the inventors believe that the superior physical properties of the present invention are due to the complexing of erythritol and allulose, which form a complex which forms small, heterogeneous crystals of the complex, rather than a mixture of erythritol crystals and allulose crystals. This heterogenous crystal structure causes the present invention to exhibit properties similar to that of sucrose. In addition, the manufacturing process creates a uniform particulate size which also imparts superior properties to the composition.

    [0073] To ensure uniformity of the particulate size of the unique combination of sweeteners, flavoring aids and flavor enhancers, we employed multiple techniques to achieve the desired outcome and functionality of the nonnutritive sweetener mixture. Sucrose is comprised of the monosaccharides glucose and fructose forming a disaccharide via a glycosidic bond. The bond between glucose and fructose indicates the molecule is a non-reducing sugar or sugar that is not freely oxidized by a weak reagent. Conversely, glucose and fructose are freely oxidized by a weak reagent. The glycosidic bond between glucose and fructose in sucrose occurs at the anomeric carbons of each molecule, which, when oxidized, prevents the molecules from dissociating and changing from a hexose and pentose ring structure to an open-chain structure. The conformational change from a ring structure to a chain structure is a phenomenon that occurs in reducing sugars because of the free aldehyde or ketone group and loss of an electron. The ability of sucrose to retain its paired ring structure during oxidation or processing is what provides the functional characteristics as a food ingredient.

    [0074] As the present invention combines erythritol, allulose, soluble corn and/or tapioca fiber, stevia leaf extract, salt (sodium chloride) and a natural masking flavor, it is important to achieve a consistent moisture content and particulate size to mirror the functional characteristics of sucrose. Therefore, we have developed a process allowing us to achieve uniformity and maintain functionality. The following procedure may be used to manufacture the composition of the present invention. The amounts of the various constituents will vary according to the formulas of the various embodiments, but the process is the same.

    [0075] Erythritol and a fiber, preferably soluble corn fiber and/or tapioca fiber, is added to a mixing vessel. The amounts of the ingredients used are according to the formulation being used. Several exemplary formulations have been provided below. The mixing vessel may be a stainless-steel mixing tank, a jacketed or non-jacketed kettle, or crystallization tank with a paddle type mixing attachment. The mixing vessel includes a heating element such as gas, water, electric or direct induction capable of achieving temperature of 20-260? C., preferably 50-100? C. and more precisely 85-98.9? C.

    [0076] Cold water, preferably reverse-osmosis or deionized water, equal to the total weight of the dry goods, i.e. the erythritol/fiber composition is added to the aforementioned mixing vessel. The cold water used dissolve the erythritol and fiber before adding heat to prevent clumping/gelatinization of the fiber.

    [0077] The tank/kettle's mixing attachment is then turned on to 45-60 rotations per minute (RPM) to form a semiliquid slurry mixture of particles weakly suspended in the water.

    [0078] The temperature on the mixing vessel is then increased to 85-98.9? C. to cause water evaporation and increase the Brix (? Bx) to 85-98.5? Bx, preferably 90-96? Bx and more preferably 94-95? Bx, which may be measured by refractometry via Brix Refractometer while mixing.

    [0079] Once the mixture has reached the adequate Brix (? Bx) of 85-98.5? Bx, preferably 90-96? Bx and more preferably 94-95? Bx, dry allulose is added to the mixture and the heat is removed.

    [0080] The mixer on the mixing vessel continues to mix at 45-60 rotations per minute to at least partially dissolve the added allulose, allowing it to coat, or complex with, the erythritol and soluble corn and/or tapioca fiber. Removing the mixture from heat prevents Maillard browning of the allulose, while the heat of the mixture causes water to evaporate. Without being bound by theory, the inventors believe that the relatively low temperature and gradual cooling facilitate the formation of erythritol-allulose complexes, and their crystallization of the complex rather than the individual constituents. The mixture is mixed until desired water content of the mixture is <5%, thus forming a moist erythritol-allulose crystalline mixture.

    [0081] The moist erythritol-allulose crystalline mixture is then removed from the mixing vessel and transferred to the hopper of a dry powder roller compactor with a granulating oscillator. The feed screw is be set to 20-65 rotations per minute, roller speed is to be set to 10-20 rotations per minute, and the roller pressure is to be set to 100-150 Kilonewtons (kN). The granulating oscillator is to be equipped with rollers rotating at 40-50 rotations per minute and a 18-35 US mesh screen (0.5-1.0 mm; 500-1000 microns). This forms a granular erythritol-allulose crystalline mixture.

    [0082] Stevia leaf extract, salt (sodium chloride), and a masking flavor are mixed independently in an appropriately size powder mixing vessel such as a rotary mixer, V-style or Cone-style mixer equipped with a reverse rotary agitator for 10-25 minutes, preferably 12-18 minutes and more precisely 14-16 minutes at a speed of 15 rotations per minute with the reverse rotary agitator rotating at a speed of 10 rotations per minute.

    [0083] The granular erythritol-allulose crystalline mixture is added to the stevia leaf extract, salt (sodium chloride), and masking flavor mixture in 20% increments. Upon each 20% addition, the granules are remixed for the following intervals [0084] 20% of erythritol-allulose crystalline mixture with stevia leaf extract, salt (sodium chloride), and the natural masking flavor mixture for 5-10 minutes, preferably 6-9 minutes and more precisely 7-8 minutes at a speed of 15 rotations per minute with the reverse rotary agitator rotating at a speed of 10 rotations per minute. [0085] 40% of erythritol-allulose crystalline mixture with stevia leaf extract, salt (sodium chloride), and the natural masking flavor mixture for 5-10 minutes, preferably 6-9 minutes and more precisely 7-8 minutes at a speed of 15 rotations per minute with the reverse rotary agitator rotating at a speed of 10 rotations per minute. [0086] 60% of erythritol-allulose crystalline mixture with stevia leaf extract, salt (sodium chloride), and the natural masking flavor mixture for 2-6 minutes, preferably 3-5 minutes and more precisely 4 minutes at a speed of 15 rotations per minute with the reverse rotary agitator rotating at a speed of 10 rotations per minute. [0087] 80% of erythritol-allulose crystalline mixture with stevia leaf extract, salt (sodium chloride), and the natural masking flavor mixture for 2-6 minutes, preferably 3-5 minutes and more precisely 4 minutes at a speed of 15 rotations per minute with the reverse rotary agitator rotating at a speed of 10 rotations per minute. [0088] 100% of erythritol-allulose crystalline mixture with stevia leaf extract, salt (sodium chloride), and the natural masking flavor mixture for 2-6 minutes, preferably 3-5 minutes and more precisely 4 minutes at a speed of 15 rotations per minute with the reverse rotary agitator rotating at a speed of 10 rotations per minute.

    [0089] The gradual blending of the two mixtures ensures a uniform mixture. The uniform mixture is then processed through a dry powder roller compactor with granulating oscillator again. The feed screw is set to 20-65 rotations per minute, roller speed is to be set to 10-20 rotations per minute, and the roller pressure is to be set to 100-150 Kilonewtons (kN). The granulating oscillator is to be equipped with rollers rotating at 40-50 rotations per minute and a 18-35 US mesh screen (0.5-1.0 mm; 500-1000 microns).

    [0090] The resulting granular nonnutritive sweetener composition is then added to a rotary drum dryer and dried for 5-20 minutes, preferably 7-17 minutes and more preferably 10-14 minutes at a speed of 4-8 rotations per minute and input temperature of air of 65-93? C. The sugar then leaves the dryer at a temperature of 41-51? C. and is transferred to a rotary drum cooler with no heat input. The mixture leaves the cooler at 35-44? C. with a moisture content of <1%, preferably <0.5%.

    [0091] A variety of flavor masking agents may be used, including aromatic amines, essential oils, extracts, e.g. vanilla and almond extracts, and oleoresins. The invention is suitable with any commonly used flavoring agents.

    [0092] The nonnutritive sweetener composition is a suitable substitute for sucrose for a variety of cooking methods. Provided below is a non-exhaustive list of uses for the nonnutritive sweetener compositions, including exemplary formulations to be used when performing the above described method of manufacture.

The results were analyzed using a visible comparison of particle size, a visible comparison of flowability, and measurements of blood glucose over 120 minutes comparing a 5 gram, 10 gram, and 15 gram dose.

    TABLE-US-00006 Method 1. Scale ingredients, bring butter & eggs to room temperature, line a sheet pan with parchment paper, and preheat oven to 375? F. (190.6? C.). 2. Cream together butter, sweetener, and salt in a tabletop mixer using a paddle attachment for 60-90 seconds. 3. Add eggs and vanilla, then mix for 30-45 seconds. 4. Add flour and baking soda, then mix for 30-45 seconds. 5. Using the drop method, drop batter onto sheet pan in 30-gram increments. 6. Place sheet pan in the oven and bake for 7-9 minutes. 7. Remove sheet pan from oven, then transfer cookies to cooling rack and cool for 2-3 minutes.

    [0221] Cookies made using this recipe are shown in FIG. 3.

    [0222] As can be seen in FIGS. 1-3, the cookies made with the nonnutritive sweetener composition have an appearance similar to that of the standard cookie recipe using sucrose. The commercially available low calorie cookies, on the other hand, have a distinctly different appearance. Both the sucrose and nonnutritive sweetener cookies, FIGS. 1 and 2, have a smooth surface and adhere to and coat the individual chocolate chips. In contrast, the commercially available low calorie cookies have a cracked surface and do not coat the chocolate chips. This demonstrates that the present invention more closely simulates the baking properties of sucrose than alternative low calorie products.

    [0223] Blood glucose levels were monitored in individuals after consuming various amounts of the nonnutritive sweetener composition of the present invention. 5, 10 and 15 gram doses of the nonnutritive sweetener composition were administered to individuals, and their blood glucose levels were measured over the subsequent 2 hours. The results are shown in the table below:

    TABLE-US-00007 Dose of Proposed Invention on Blood Glucose (mg/dL) Minute 5 grams 10 grams 15 grams 0 72 79 68 15 72 83 74 30 74 84 81 60 72 78 76 120 70 76 76

    [0224] As can be seen, blood glucose levels did not alter substantially for any of the three doses tested. Not surprisingly, the most significant rise in blood glucose levels occurred with the highest dosage. All groups showed a peak around 30 minutes after administering the dose, and leveled off after about 60 minutes.
