Other details:

Exporting acesulfame potassium exporter, acesulfame potassium powder, industrial acesulfame potassium which is a calorie-free artificial sweetener, also known as Acesulfame K or Ace K and marketed under the trade names Sunett and Sweet One. Acesulfame K is 180-200 times sweeter than sucrose, as sweet as aspartame, about half as sweet as saccharin, and one-quarter as sweet as sucralose. Like saccharin, it has a slightly bitter aftertaste, especially at high concentrations. Kraft Foods has patented the use of sodium ferulate to mask acesulfame's aftertaste. Acesulfame K is often blended with other sweeteners (usually sucralose or aspartame). These blends are reputed to give a more sugar-like taste whereby each sweetener masks the other's aftertaste, and/or exhibits a synergistic effect by which the blend is sweeter than its components. Acesulfame-K is widely used in various kind of food.
