Aspartame Powder – Aspartame Sweetener Alternative – Low Calorie Powdered Sweetener – Concentrated Pure Aspartame Natural Sweetener – Ideal for Juice, Smoothies, Water (8 oz.)

Final review pending. I am waiting on a response about the country of manufacture/origin and other details that are not listed on the package or the listing.This is definitely concentrated and likely pure as stated. A small amount on the tip of a teaspoon is enough make your coffee as sweet as 4 sugar packets. It’s definitely more economical than packaged sweeters, which have fillers and other sweeteners mixed in, and do not taste as good.I’ve been on a quest to find a viable sweetener that does not have a bitter aftertaste. I tried both name brand sweeteners, and the underlying substances where possible. The list includes Splenda, Equal, Nutrasweet, saccharin, Monk Fruit, Stevia, swerve, erythritol, aspartame and acesulfame potassium (“Ace-k”)Many of the name brands have fillers and flavors added to them. In the case of packaged retail aspartame sweeteners, they contain a mixture of Ace-k, aspartame and dextrose.The closest I could get to real sugar was swerve and Equal. Swerve was very expensive and did numbers to my stomach. Equal was better but it still had a bitter aftertaste. Lesser than the others, but it was still there.I decided to try the two sweeteners in Equal separately. The Ace-k was very bitter and worse than Equal. The aspartame turned out to be almost identical to sugar with zero bitterness at all. I’m pleased to say I found my sweetener. The Ace-k in Equal and Nurasweet is the source of the bitterness.
