Steviol glycosides are natural sweeteners derived from the leaves of the Stevia rebaudiana plant. These compounds are known for their intense sweetness, often being hundreds of times sweeter than sucrose, while containing little to no calories. The extraction process involves drying the leaves and using water or alcohol to extract the sweet compounds, which are then purified for use in various applications.
| Sweetness level | 50 to 300 times sweeter than sugar |
| Purity | Typically 95% or higher |
| Form | Powder or liquid |
| Solubility | Soluble in water |
| Taste profile | Clean sweetness with minimal aftertaste |
When choosing steviol glycosides, consider the desired sweetness level and purity required for your application. It's important to specify whether you need the product in powder or liquid form, as well as any specific taste profile preferences. Additionally, inquire about certifications such as non-GMO or organic, if relevant to your market. Quantities can vary widely based on your production needs, so be prepared to discuss your expected usage.
