 Merisant - About Merisant - The History of Equal and Canderel
The newly discovered sweetening ingredient underwent many years of testing before being approved for consumer use for the first time in 1979 in France, where the product was marketed as "Canderel®." Canderel® is a combination of the words "candy" and "airelle," the French word for wild cherry.
Equal® was launched around the same time as the US market launch of the NutraSweet® brand, which helped create brand awareness for Equal®.
Unlike its overseas counterpart Canderel®, Equal® was introduced in the US in the form of individual packets, or sachets, rather than tablets.

Accordingly, these masses of Equal sweetener per 50 mL should work well: A, 0.12 g; B, 0.20 g; C, 0.30 g; D, 0.40 g; E, 0.60 g; F, 0.80 g; and G, 1.20 g.
measurements that they record for their Equal solutions (A-G) into aspartame concentrations in mol/L. Given the molecular weight of aspartame, they can calculate the mass of aspartame in each 50 mL solution (A-G), and finally, the mass of aspartame per gram of Equal sweetener in each solution.
Even more important, because aspartame is the active component of Equal sweetener, it makes sense to use concentration units of mol aspartame/L rather than g Equal/50 mL.
