ABSTRACT:
Noncariogenic comestibles (i.e., food products that do not cause dental caries) may be obtained by employing as a nutritive sweetening system therein a homogenous mixture of at least one first sweetening agent consisting of sorbitol and/or xylitol and at least one second sweetening agent consisting of dextrose and/or fructose, with the mixture containing at least about 75% of the first agent by weight of the mixture where dextrose is the second agent and at least about 60% of the first agent where fructose is the second agent. Advantageously and optionally, such a sweetening system is provided in candies in association with adipic and/or ascorbic acid as a flavoring agent.
