Introducing EverSweet®: The next generation stevia sweetener
How can EverSweet® help you reduce sugar further?
Consumers are looking to reduce their intake of sugars without compromising on taste or label friendliness. Fortunately, next-generation stevia solutions are here to truly hit this market sweet spot!
- 64% of consumers claim to avoid sugar when shopping for packaged food & beverages.*
- 76% claim to avoid artificial intensive sweeteners when shopping for packaged food & beverages.*
- 51% of consumers aged 18-65 years old are familiar with stevia.*
In order to help meet this market opportunity we’re excited that our next-generation stevia sweetener, EverSweet®, (a product of Avansya – a joint venture between dsm-firmenich and Cargill), is coming to Europe and the UK, following a positive safety opinion by The European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) and UK Food Standards Agency (FSA). This means that this new zero-calorie sweetener is expected to be authorized in the EU and in the UK in the course of 2024.
EverSweet® is inspired by nature. It brings to life the sweetest and cleanest tasting components of the stevia leaf (rebaudiosides M and D). With EverSweet®, you can make significant sugar reductions to your food or beverage formulations without compromising on taste.
Not only does EverSweet® offer great taste, an internal lifecycle analysis (LCA) study highlights improved environmental performance in key metrics such as carbon footprint, water use and land use impact for EverSweet® compared to production from leaf or bioconversion, or traditional sugar.**
