Steviva Brands, Inc., introduces SteviaSweet RA98™, its sweetest and most highly concentrated sweetener product in its stevia extract line. The new product is designed to replace sucrose and chemically-based sweeteners in a wide range of food applications like soft drinks, cereals, snacks, desserts, ice cream, confectionery products, jams and jellies.
The zero-calorie sweetener is all natural and GMO-free. SteviaSweet RA98 contains 98% minimum Rebaudioside A (Reb A). The high levels of Reb A sweeten about 300 times sweeter than sucrose with minimal aftertaste. It's derived from the South American Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni plan that offers intense sweetness and superior flavor with minimal caloric contribution.
"The flavor of SteviaSweet RA98 is a sharper, sweet profile in comparison to the softer, smoother profile of our SteviaSweet RA 95/60," said Thom King, president, Steviva Brands, Inc.
