Product Description
Steviva offers a new, natural sweetening solution that brings together optimal levels of proprietary stevia, monk fruit and erythritol, a sugar alcohol derived by microbial fermentation. This combination offers multiple advantages. Stevia and monk fruit are high intensity sweeteners, with about 150 to 250 times the sweetness of sucrose.
Flavor is the biggest payback. On its own, stevia can have a bitter note. Monk fruit is a natural flavor enhancer that helps mask off flavors in stevia and in other ingredients as well. Erythritol contributes mild cooling effect. Overall, sweetness delivery is clean and neutral.
This optimized low-calorie, sweetening solution allows companies to remove or reduce added sugar in a variety of foods including beverages, sauces, dairy products, confections and baked goods. MonkSweet+ is twice as sweet as sucrose with just 0.2 calories per gram.
Since the early 1990s, several of Azure's vendors have been developing alternative natural sweeteners. Stevia is one of the most popular. However, while stevia is great if you just need a tiny dash of sweetness in your coffee, it's hard to work with in baking.
Steviva combines stevia with other natural ingredients to develop alternative sweeteners that behave more like sugar when it comes to baking and cooking. There are three different ingredients that are the basis for their new products: erythritol, xylitol and monk fruit.
Monkfruit is the new kid on the block and is currently Steviva's #1 selling product. But it's not actually a fruit. It's a nut from Asia that's been used as a sweetener for hundreds of years. For MonkSweet Plus Steviva uses an extract from the sweetest part of the rind, which produces a very intense sweetener with a slightly fruity aftertaste.
Another natural ingredient is Erythritol, which has been used in Japan since 1990 in candies, chocolate, yogurt, fillings, jellies, jams and beverages. Erythritol is classified as a sugar alcohol, also called polyols, which occur naturally in many plants. In this case, fermented, non-GMO corn from France. Erythritol is unique among the sugar alcohols, and is easier on stomach than sorbitol.
Finally, Steviva introduces Xerosweet Plus with Xylitol, which is another sugar alcohol. The flavor profile of Xerosweet+ Stevia Fortified Xylitol is neutral enough for a variety of uses, yet it pairs especially well with mint or citrus flavors. Confections and gums, frozen desserts, puddings, jams and jellies are proven applications.
Steviva brand stevia extract has no additives whatsoever and is 100% natural in every sense of the word. In 2008 stevia was approved by the FDA for sale in the United States as a sweetener. Overseas, stevia controls over 40% of the sweetener market and you will often times find stevia on the kitchen or restaurant table just as you would sugar.
Use MonkSweet Plus® anywhere a low-calorie sugar replacement is desired.

Great quality and it seems I need less of this version to create the same sweetness.

My husband is diabetic and I was looking for something better and this mixture of stevia and monk is wonderful. It dose don't take a lot to sweeten our drink and it is closer to sugar in looks and taste. We love it.

I really like this sweetener blend. No noticeable aftertaste. Being twice and as sweet as sugar means it lasts longer than other sweeteners that are 1:1 for sugar.
