What Wikipedia says

Phlorizin is a glucoside of phloretin, a dihydrochalcone. A white solid when pure, samples often appear yellow due to impurities. It is of sweet taste and contains four molecules of water in the crystal. It is poorly soluble in ether and cold water, but soluble in ethanol and hot water.
