Canderel with Sucralose

Canderel is a globally recognized brand of artificial sweetener, famously used as a low-calorie alternative to sugar. The brand was originally launched in France in 1979 by G.D. Searle & Company following the discovery of aspartame. Over the decades, the product line expanded to include various sweetener bases, such as sucralose (as seen in this yellow sachet) and stevia, to cater to different consumer preferences for taste and heat stability in cooking.

The brand has undergone several changes in ownership throughout its history. While it was initially developed by Searle, it was later a part of Monsanto and subsequently Merisant. As of the current period into 2026, Canderel is owned by Whole Earth Brands, a global platform of next-generation sweetener and flavor enhancement brands. Manufacturing occurs across multiple countries through global supply chains, often localized for major markets like the UK and Europe. The brand remains a staple in the tabletop sweetener market, widely available in cafes and supermarkets.
