Probiotic-Enhanced Sweetener in Development

Cleveland, OH-based Ganeden Biotech has entered an exclusive partnership with Heartland Sweeteners, Indianapolis, IN, to produce a new probiotic-enhanced sweetener. The companies will work together to develop a zero-calorie artificial sweetener to be distributed nationally in retail grocers, including many already carrying Heartland Sweeteners’ Nevella line. The new sweetener is intended for use in a variety of traditional sweetener applications, as well as in baked goods, as a healthy, zero-calorie alternative.
