Cargill has debuted EverSweet, a zero-calorie sweetener designed to offer food and beverage companies sweetener options that satisfy consumer health without sacrificing taste.
EverSweet sweetener is made with the same sweetness found in the stevia leaf, Reb M and Reb D, and provides consumers the taste they crave with better sweetness intensity, faster sweetness onset and improved sweetness quality—without the bitterness or off-note aftertaste, the company said.
Because the stevia plant produces only trace amounts of these molecules, using Reb M and Reb D to produce a sweetener hasn’t been commercially or environmentally viable until now with fermentation. EverSweet next-generation sweetener is expected to be commercially available in 2016.
“At a time when many consumers want to reduce sugar consumption and adopt healthier lifestyles, EverSweet sweetener offers a new, delicious choice for reduced and zero-calorie food and beverages,” said David Henstrom, vice president for health ingredients at Cargill.
