We’re celebrating National No Sugar Day with our MonkSweet+! This natural sweetening solution combines optimal levels of proprietary steviol glycosides, monk fruit extract, and erythritol— a sugar alcohol created through microbial fermentation to create an ideal alternative to sugar.
This blend of stevia and monk fruit are high-intensity sweeteners, boasting sweetness levels approximately 150 to 250 times that of sucrose. As a result, only very small amounts of these sweeteners are needed during formulation, and due to their potent sweetness, they cut costs and usage levels.
MonkSweet+ effectively compensates for the lack of solids in sweeteners, achieving a similar mouthfeel to sucrose. It excels in masking off-notes; when combined, sweetening compounds create a neutral flavor profile for sugar replacement. While stevia may have licorice-like off-notes, monk fruit enhances flavor by masking these undesirable tastes in solutions.
Erythritol provides a subtle cooling sensation that is balanced by the distinctive blend of glycosides found in MonkSweet+. This enhanced low-calorie sweetening solution enables formulators to eliminate or lessen added sugars in a wide range of food products, such as beverages, sauces, dairy items, confections, and baked goods, containing only 0.2 calories per gram. MonkSweet+ is both non-GMO and kosher.
Since our is produced without chemicals, it supports a clean label claim and allowing transparency with consumers.
