Stevia Sweeteners

Tate & Lyle offer a complete range of innovative stevia sweeteners produced from stevia leaf extracts. Stevia sweeteners are high-potency, zero-calorie sweeteners of natural origin made from the stevia plant which allow for calorie reduction and elimination of sugars from recipes making the nutritional labels much more attractive to the large and growing sector of health conscious consumers.

Sensory data shows that approximately 80% of the population is sensitive to bitter off-notes associated with some natural, stevia-based sweeteners on the market. However, the Stevia offerings from Tate & Lyle have a substantially cleaner aftertaste than other stevia- derived sweeteners, allowing higher sugar replacement levels without sacrificing taste.

The sweetness potency of stevia sweeteners ranges from about 200–300 times sweeter than sugar, depending on the level of sweetness being replaced. Stevia sweeteners contribute zero calories and can be used to enable calorie and sugar reduction in foods and beverages.

Stevia sweeteners exhibit good stability and are suitable for use in low-pH products such as beverages and they have demonstrated stability to high temperature processes such as pasteurization.

Stevia can be used in a wide- range of applications including:
✅ Baked goods                        ✅ Dressings, sauces
✅ Beverages                             ✅ Frozen foods
✅ Cereals                                  ✅ Processed fruits and vegetables
✅ Confectionery                      ✅ Snacks
✅ Dairy
