Sugar-free syrups made by MonsterSlush™

The popular Blue Raspberry, Cherry, Cola (without caffeine) and Flamingo flavors are now also available as sugar-free slush ice syrups from MonsterSlush™ for preparing slush ice. The calorie count for these products is 19 kcal (79 KJ). The syrups are therefore low in calories. In terms of taste, the varieties are in no way inferior to the sugar-enriched MonsterSlush™ syrups: the typical fruity and fresh taste has been retained despite the lack of sugar.

The market regulates supply - we have now implemented this. The demand for these now sugar-free varieties has increased noticeably in recent years. MonsterSlush™ has responded to this by developing these new products. We believe that these innovative products are in keeping with the spirit of the times and will secure a permanent place in our syrup range.

Here is a comparison so that everyone can see where our sugary and our new, sugar-free slush ice lie in the nutritional table:

By the way:

Sugar is an important source of energy as well as a food and stimulant. Viewed soberly, sugar is first and foremost simply a carbohydrate and therefore an important source of energy. Although sugar is produced by every green plant as part of photosynthesis, sugar cane and sugar beet are among the few plants that can store large quantities of sugar. The sugar we use is produced from these plants.

Sugar is a fuel with a turbo effect

As a carbohydrate, sugar plays an important role in the diet. This is because carbohydrates should provide more than half of the energy the body needs. The brain alone burns around 140 g of glucose every day. This corresponds to about 14 tablespoons of sugar. Pure sugar enters the bloodstream very quickly via the intestines and from there into the brain. It is therefore ideal when a lot of energy is needed very quickly, for example during sport. Pure sugar is therefore unbeatable as a quick source of energy. Like any food, sugar should be consumed in moderation.

The sugary slush ice varieties are and will remain the most important pillars of our overall portfolio.

Slush ice made by MonsterSlush™ is popular with young and old alike and is firmly established on the ice cream market.
