Aspartame is N-L-alpha-Aspartyl-L-phenylalanine-1-methyl ester. It is a white, crystalline powder or granular material that has a sweet taste. It is sparingly soluble in water and slightly soluble in alcohol. The pH of a 0.8% solution is between 4.5 and 6.0. Aspartame has a clean, sweet taste that is approximately 200 to 300 times sweeter than sugar.

Aspartame has a refreshing, sugar like sweetness. It does not have the bitter taste or metal aftertaste that artificial sweeteners usually have. In food and soft drinks, the sweetness of aspartame is usually 180-220 times that of sucrose.
Flavor enhancing properties
Aspartame has synergistic effect on the flavor of some foods and beverages, especially on the sour fruit flavor.
Synergy
When aspartame is mixed with strong sweetener, the product sometimes has a bitter taste, which can be improved by increasing the proportion of aspartame in the mixture, and the improvement degree increases with the increase of the proportion of aspartame.
