So, what is fruktsukker?
Fruktukker, also known as fruit sugar, is a natural sweetener derived from fruit, typically apples or grapes. Unlike refined sugar, fruktukker is not processed, which means it retains all the vitamins and minerals found in the original fruit. It has a slightly lower glycemic index than regular sugar, making it a healthier alternative for those concerned about blood sugar levels. Fruktukker is commonly used in baked goods, jams, and beverages, adding a fruity sweetness to any dish. It is also a popular choice for those on a vegan or plant-based diet.
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.
