Formulate for sweet success with Stevia leaf extracts

The pressure to reduce sugars in beverages continues to escalate, as brands face a growing litany of health concerns and expanding government regulations. Given the pressure, it seems the European beverage marketplace may be due for an overhaul. Enter stevia: a herb native to Latin America, the stevia plant contains steviol glycosides that are 150 to 300 times sweeter than sugar.

Stevia - Cut the calories not the taste
