Sucralín was created in 2010 with a clear desire to offer the alternative to sugar. They wanted to be the best naturally sourced sugar substitute. But that is something consumers must decide. And for that to happen, a series of factors had to come together to make it possible.
There are two fundamental factors above all the rest. First, creating a product that stands apart from the competition, with enough quality to be recognized as one of the best on the market. And second, having real consumer demand for your product category, with consumers choosing to give you the “award” for the best product.
To achieve that outcome, there were a number of factors that depended on the people who make up Sucralín. These included the raw materials used to make Sucralín. If they did not use the best on the market, it would be difficult to stand out from the competition, and consumers might buy their products or others without caring about the brand.
So they invested in innovation to obtain the best final product on the market: one that first satisfied them, and then gave them a greater chance of convincing consumers.
And they succeeded. A complete success. The best natural sweetener on the market, because it tastes like sugar, without the drawbacks of sugar.

In our country, we are not used to being leaders or trend-setting benchmarks. But over time, little by little, that idea has changed. Among premium naturally sourced sweeteners, Sucralín is the benchmark to follow.
Highly appealing properties
When Sucralín was created, other sweetener options appeared on the market, some of natural origin such as Stevia, very sweet but with an aftertaste that changes the flavor of foods, as it tastes like licorice. Others, such as polyalcohols (erythritol or maltitol), do sweeten, but consuming them can cause flatulence and laxative effects.
Sucralín is the “well-rounded” sweetener. It is concentrated and has no side effects. Its sweetening power is between 7 and 10 times sweeter than sugar, with a very similar texture and, most importantly, it tastes like sugar.
In addition, it made it possible to use it not only to sweeten drinks or dairy products, but also to take the next step and enter the kitchen, becoming one more ingredient in culinary recipes. Its ease of use in cooking completed the circle.
Add to this its extremely low calorie content. It is also suitable for people with diabetes, contains no gluten or lactose, and is liver-friendly as well (it does not contain phenylalanine, unlike aspartame, the sweetener used in zero-calorie carbonated drinks). The result is a product that forever changed the way dishes, drinks, and desserts are sweetened.
That is how its journey began back in 2011, making its way into pharmacies and parapharmacies. Thanks to its success, it spread throughout Spain, expanding its distribution to herbal shops, diet centers, supermarkets, the industrial/professional market, and of course, the internet.
