What is Sukrin?

The Sukrin brand was founded in 2007 by the Norwegian company Funksjonell Mat AS. Sukrin produces a wide variety of natural and calorie-free sugar alternatives based on erythritol. It is a substance that occurs among others, naturally in pears, melons and mushrooms.

What is erythritol?

Erythritol is a natural sugar alcohol from the polyols family. Erythritol is obtained by fermentation of glucose by a yeast. It belongs to the group of non-intensive sweeteners and is 100% natural. Unlike intensive sweeteners such as aspartame, erythritol does not undergo chemical processes. It has the e number E968 and is not harmful to health. This natural sweetener has also been declared safe by the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA). Erythritol can be used safely in food.

Erythritol does not provide energy for the body, so you do not get any calories. This is due to the fact that it is largely absorbed by the blood and then excreted in the urine.

Unlike most sweeteners, Sukrin's sugar substitutes look the same as brown or white sugar. Hence, it is a very suitable substitute for sugar. In addition, they have the same taste as sugar and can also be used in the same amounts. Sukrin can therefore be used instead of granulated sugar for tea or coffee, but it is also very suitable for baking purposes.

Are sugar substitutes harmful or unhealthy?

There are no scientific disadvantages of Erythritol known. Sukrin sugar substitute is a natural product without unpleasant side effects. However, overuse can have a laxative effect. Sukrin products contain no artificial components.

Is Sukrin allowed on a diet?

Sukrin is suitable for people who want to eat more consciously and healthily or, for example, for people who are on a diet and still want to add a sweet taste to their food. Since the sugar substitutes do not contain carbohydrates, they are very suitable during a low-carbohydrate diet and the protein diet . The different types of flour that Sukrin offers contain a lot of protein, which makes the products suitable for a high-protein diet. Additionally, Sukrin is a godsend for people who do not follow a diet, but just want to eat healthy with less sugar.

Is Sukrin suitable for diabetics?

You can consume Sukrin safely when you have diabetes, due to the fact that Sukrin is absorbed in the small intestine and excreted unchanged. Sukrin and diabetes go well together since it has no effect on blood sugar, unlike regular sugar. This makes the sugar substitute very suitable for diabetes patients.

Is Sukrin harmful to your teeth?

Another advantage over sugar is the fact that Sukrin is tooth-friendly. Sukrin protects your teeth against cavities by inhibiting the growth of bacteria in your mouth.

How does Sukrin taste?

Sukrin tastes slightly less sweet compared to regular sugar and does not have an aftertaste. You can bake well with it because the taste does not become bitter. It also has the same structure as refined sugar. Our sugar substitute has 75% sweetening power compared to regular granulated sugar. 100 grams of regular sugar is approximately equal to 125 grams of Sukrin.

Can you bake with sugar substitutes?

In addition to sugar substitutes, Sukrin also offers a wide range of bread and baking mixes. This allows you to bake responsibly and without sugar. It is very beneficial that Sukrin baking tastes like regular sugar since it leaves no aftertaste. This gives you almost the same end result as if you were to use sugar, just a lot healthier.
