Icon Foods has two flavor modulation systems - CitruSweet and ThauSweet. These are modulation systems not maskers. Maskers and blockers can mute your flavors. While CitruSweet and ThauSweet can enhance your flavors and off-set off-notes.

ThauSweet sweetness modulator increases the sweetness potencies, as well as, the elimination of the slow sweetness onset and sweetness linger for stevia, monk fruit, other high-intensity sweeteners, in addition to bitter or astringent compounds, extracts and herbs. The primary effective compound in ThauSweet is derived from Thaumatin which comes from a mixture of proteins isolated from the katemfe fruit of West Africa. ThauSweet is very sweet, builds slowly and is the perfect masking agent for the astringent back taste that can occur with supplemental herbs and extracts.

CitruSweet sweetness modulator increases the sweetness potencies, as well as, the elimination of the slow sweetness onset and the sweetness linger for stevia, monk fruit and other high-intensity sweeteners. Driven by the flavonoid naringenin; in its natural state, it is responsible for citrus fruit’s bitter taste. When treated with natural alkaline compounds and then hydrogenated, it becomes roughly 1500 times sweeter than sugar. When this super high-intensity sweetener is coupled with specific polyols the result is a perfect sweetener receptor positive allosteric modulator that exhibits a novel approach to sugar-like taste enabling the use of stevia, monk fruit and other high-intensity sweeteners at lower concentrations and addressing negative taste attributes.

Icon Foods is focused on customer satisfaction. Our purpose is to deliver exceptional, clean label, all natural, healthy sweetening solutions. Natural sweeteners are intuitive to us. Helping food companies deliver innovative, naturally sweetened products is our duty.

All sweeteners are not alike. Some are derived from the stevia plant, some monk fruit, fructose, erythritol, xylitol, but that’s their only commonality. Multiple compounds within the stevia leaves – steviol glycosides, monk fruit – mogroside V – have characteristics ranging from sweet to bitter. Isolating the purest, best-tasting components in a controlled environment is half the challenge. The method used to extract these compounds significantly impacts flavor and quality. Sourcing, processing methods and ratios of glycosides vary widely among suppliers.

We are driven to ensure the highest possible standards for quality control and food safety. Through research and development, our focus is to constantly improve extraction, blending processes PARTICAL REDUCTION, packaging materials and methods. We are dedicated to working with our customers for our mutual success and ultimately, consumer satisfaction. Our R&D department is committed to formulating and reformulating your products to reduce added sugars to target the lucrative and growing Keto, Low Carb and Paleo categories.

Allulose is one of the most revolutionary sweeteners to hit the market in decades. It makes deep, clean cuts to 90% of added sugars and is a monosaccharide that can be found naturally in figs, raisins and maple syrup.

The chemical makeup is almost exactly the same as sucrose, but its slight difference in hydrogen and oxygen structures mean it has just one tenth of the calories of sugar.
