Description:	Human beings have an innate preference for sweet products. A cost-effective strategy to reduce sugar intake in the short term is reducing added sugars of processed foods. However, in order to be effective, sugar reduction should not be perceived by consumers. Preference for sweet taste is different in children and adults, which suggests that recommendations for sugar reduction may differ for products targeted at each segment. In this context, the objectives of the present study were to determine children and adults’ difference thresholds for added sugar in grape nectar, and to determine their hedonic perception towards nectars with reduced sugar content.
