Disclosed is a sweetener composition comprising a) large sucrose crystals, and b) agglomerated particles each comprising a high intensity sweetener, a plurality of small sucrose crystals, and a binder; wherein the large sucrose crystals are larger than 400 microns in size and constitute from about 5 wt% to about 50 wt% of the composition, and wherein the small sucrose crystals are smaller than 300 microns in size and constitute at least about 25 wt% of the composition and the binder constitutes at least about 5 wt% of the composition. Also disclosed is a method of making a sweetener composition, the method comprising the steps of: agglomerating a mixture comprising small sucrose crystals and a binder by treating the mixture with an agglomeration fluid comprising a solvent, wherein one or both of the mixture and the agglomeration fluid further comprises a high intensity sweetener; and mixing large sucrose crystals with at least the small sucrose crystals and the binder; wherein the large sucrose crystals are larger than 400 microns in size and the small sucrose crystals are smaller than 300 microns in size. |
