Sugars & Sweeteners

Substitutes for Allulose in gelato

Allulose (D-psicose) is a rare monosaccharide sweetener used in gelato as a partial sugar replacer. It is about 70% as sweet as sucrose yet depresses the freezing point far more strongly (PAC ~190), letting you soften a mix without over-sweetening. Closest matches on the balancing numbers, ranked.
