Next-gen sweetener for hot drinks

Lampados International’s Liteez is a next-gen, dual-purpose meringue kiss sweetener that can melt in hot drinks or be enjoyed as an ultralow-calorie sweet treat. Two Liteez contain about two calories instead of the 20 calories in one teaspoon of table sugar.

The vegan meringue kiss is a plant-based snack, free from allergens such as eggs, gluten, lactose and nuts. Containing only six simple ingredients, it was developed in collaboration with Practical Innovation, Israel.

Liteez uses a vegetable protein that has the ability to foam like eggs to help create the desired kiss texture and form. Sugar’s functionality is replaced with prebiotic fibres to form a stable foam and maintain the kiss shape, while being highly soluble in hot drinks such as coffee or tea.
