So, what is fruktsocker?
Fruktsocker, also known as fruit sugar, is a natural sweetener derived from fruits such as grapes, apples, and pears. It is a type of fructose that is found in these fruits, and it has a sweet taste that is similar to regular sugar, but with a lower glycemic index. Fruktsocker is a great alternative to refined sugar, as it provides a healthier option for sweetening drinks and foods without spiking blood sugar levels. It is also an excellent ingredient for baking, as it can add moisture and texture to baked goods while reducing the amount of added sugar needed.
We've built a vegan ingredients scanner that classifies food ingredients as "vegan", "non-vegan", or "potentially vegan".
It allows you to avoid non-vegan ingredients - just take a picture of a product's ingredient list, and the app tells you if the product is vegan or not.
