NEOHESPERIDIN DIHYDROCHALCONE (NHDC) is a no calories flavour enhancer. NHDC is approximately 1500-1800 times sweeter than sucrose (common sugar) at threshold limit concentration. A very important characteristic of NHDC is the synergistic sweetening effect it has when combined with other sweeteners.
DESCRIPTION
Origin and Preparation.- NHDC is obtained by hydrogenation of Neohesperidin, present in the peel of the citrus. Appearance.- White and crystalline powder Organoleptic Properties.- Odourless and very intense sweet flavour.
