A crystalline form of sucralose, and a method of making it. The method involves
continuously crystallizing sucralose from an aqueous solution by a process providing
continuous removal and recirculation of the vessel contents, and providing a long
residence time for sucralose in the system. The crystals thus formed are of a relatively
low length/diameter ratio, have an unsymmetrical shape, and exhibit good stability.
The larger crystals in particular are tapered as compared to the rod-like larger
crystals in prior art product.
