Nestlé-Froneri has selected Resugar Synergy, a product from food tech company Resugar, as the key ingredient behind their new low-calorie ice cream bars. By replacing regular sugar with Resugar, Nestlé-Froneri stated they were able to reduce sugar content by 70%. "We are proud and happy about this successful collaboration between Nestlé-Froneri Ice Creams and Resugar,” said Ariel Elhadef, chief technologist at Nestlé-Froneri. “Many consumers today are looking for products that will provide them with an experience without compromise in taste and texture, yet with a low caloric value. The addition of Resugar to the 99 calorie series allowed us to launch a very tasty product with a sugar content of less than 10%. This is a winning combination of less than 100 calories per unit and excellent taste.” “Our game-changing solution means manufacturers can keep delicious products on the market without any reformulation, and consumers can keep enjoying their favourite products without negative health effects,” commented Niv Ben-Ami, Resugar co-founder.
