E900–E999
Sweeteners & Glazing Agents (E900–E999)
The E900–E999 range covers a broad mix of additives, including artificial sweeteners (such as aspartame E951, acesulfame K E950, sucralose E955 and saccharin E954), glazing agents like beeswax and shellac, propellants and gases, and flour treatment agents. Many of these are commonly searched by Muslims checking the halal status of sugar-free products and confectionery.
