Torani has launched its first zero-calorie beverage sauce, which is claimed to be 'one of the first of its kind' to hit the market.

As part of its 100th anniversary celebrations, Torani has launched two classic flavours – the French Vanilla and Pumpkin Spice – of zero-calorie sauce, following a report that three in four Americans are avoiding or limiting their sugar intake.

Crafted without artificial colours or flavours, the new beverage sauces are the company's first zero-calorie, sugar-free sauce designed specifically for mixing and blending in cold beverages. Made to enhance a wide range of drinks, such as iced coffees, lattes, cold brews, mochas and milkshakes.

Domenico Milano, principal food scientist at Torani, said: “At Torani, we’re always pushing the boundaries of flavour innovation and developing a zero-calorie beverage sauce was an exciting challenge".

"Our goal was to create a rich, indulgent flavour experience without compromising taste, texture, or quality. Through extensive research and testing, we crafted a formula that delivers the same smooth, decadent flavour profiles as our classic sauces – without the calories.”

The French Vanilla sauce will launch in spring, followed by Pumpkin Spice in summer as a seasonal release through the brand's website.
