PureCircle™ by Ingredion Stevia Solutions

Clarifying Stevia Extract Terminology 

The Stevia rebaudiana plant has been harvested for centuries for its food and medicinal benefits. Modern-day stevia sweeteners are purified from the crude Stevia rebaudiana leaf extract into various steviol glycosides, including stevioside, dulcoside A, rebaudioside A, rebaudiosides B–F, rubusoside, and steviolbioside. Steviosides are the most abundant glycosides and impart the characteristic of lingering bitter or licorice-tasting notes. Purified rebaudioside A (Reb A) is the least bitter of all the steviol glycosides. However, there is a new rebaudioside M (Reb M) from PureCircle™ by Ingredion that is a unique compound produced from fermented sugarcane. It is free from stevia’s characteristic bitter notes, making it a great choice for formulations.

Choosing the Right Stevia Extract

From gummy candies to beverages to fruit sauces to powdered dietary supplement premixes, each product poses unique challenges when formulating with sweetener ingredients. PureCircle™ stevia sweeteners are all pH stable, heat stable, and used at low concentrations.
