Revelé, Huntington Beach, Calif., released Frozen Yogurt Bars made with sugar allulose.
“What makes allulose such an incredible ingredient in the creation of healthy frozen desserts is that it acts so similarly to traditional table sugar without any of the negative side effects,” says Dr. Jareer Abu-Ali, founder and CEO of New Direction Foods, parent company of the Revelé brand. “The molecular makeup of allulose allows for it to mimic sugar’s ability to create the rich, dense and creamy sensation you get when enjoying traditional ice cream. There is no need to pump the product full of air or dilute it with water. At 70% of the sweetness of table sugar and the body’s inability to absorb its calories, we are able to use more allulose to match sweetness expectations without impacting how many calories the treat contains. This is a revolutionary way to approach healthy eating, without sacrificing indulgence.”
