Abstract: Re-evaluation of sucralose (E 955) as a food additive Overview• Sucralose (E 955) is a food additive used as a non-nutritive sweetener.It provides sweetness without adding calories or nutritional value.• The EU's Scientific Committee on Food (SCF), EFSA's predecessor, last evaluated E 955 in 2000.• For the current opinion, the EFSA Panel on Food Additives and Flavourings (FAF Panel) reevaluated the safety of E 955 for its use as a food additive.• EFSA has previously published re-evaluations of other sweeteners: aspartame (E 951) in 2013, thaumatin (E 957) in 2021, neohesperidine DC (E 959) in 2022, erythritol (E 968) in 2023, saccharins (E 954) in 2024, and acesulfame K (E 950) and neotame (E 961) in 2025.
