The sensation of sweetness in people can be caused by a large number of very different chemical structures compounds and plays a very important function in the acceptance of food.

Tanumatin is a protein substance obtained from the extraction of the Katemfe fruit (Thaumatococcus Daniellii Benth) a plant originally known as "miraculous fruit of the Sudan."At the end of the 80’s it began to be used as an sweetener in Japan.The sweetness potential it offers goes from 1600 to 3000 times sweeter than sugar.

Being a protein substance, it is metabolized by the body generating 4 cal/g.However, as the dosage in food is very low, due to its sweetness potential, the caloric contribution in the products is insignificant.This characteristic is of special importance in the formulation of zero sugar products or for diabetics and in which you want to use “100% natural” legends.

The profile observed by the taumatin is of a slow start entry or taste, a sweetness perceived once and a replacement.Due to this behavior, it is suggested to be mixed with other sweeteners to improve the profile.For example, it can be used in combination with the Stevia or with the reaudoside to or to mitigate the bitter taste of this and in turn improve the profile of the taumatin.

Because it is stable to heat, it is of great interest in the development of bakery products, ice cream, flavored milks, chewing and drinks whose pH is not less than 3.5.

Like other sweetening high -power sweeteners, torrent can enhance the other flavors present in food, in the elaboration of drinks, jams, dairy products such as yogurt and cheese, instant coffee and chewing gums.
