ABSTRACT:
A crystalline form of sucralose, and a method of making it. The method involves continuously crystallizing sucralose from an aqueous solution by a process providing continuous removal and recirculation of the vessel contents, and providing a long residence time for sucralose in the system. The crystals thus formed are of a relatively low length/diameter ratio, have an unsymmetrical shape, and exhibit good stability. The larger crystals in particular are tapered as compared to the rod-like larger crystals in prior art product.
