Based on the results of iso-sweetness experiments, 41.5 g
(=30%) sucrose of the formulation were substituted by a mixture of 41.33 g replacer and water, and 0.17 g Stevia RA98 (see Table 1). The
ratio of water to fibre (W/F) in that mixture was calculated by W=F ผ WBC=๐1 xF (1)
where xF refers to moisture load of the native fibre. Polydextrose replaced sugar 1:1. In case of maltodextrin and inulin, we prepared
mixtures with water in a ratio of 1:2 and 2.33:1, respectively (Forker, Zahn, & Rohm, 2012; Zahn et al., 2010).
