Cargill begins production of new sweetener derived from stevia

From: FoodBev

Cargill has started the production of a new sweetener called EverSweet, a zero-calorie sweetener made from two compounds found within the stevia leaf.

EverSweet is targeted at soft drinks producers who want to create low-calorie beverages “without sacrificing great taste”, s market trends see consumers moving away from sugary drinks.

EverSweet is produced through a fermentation process which extracts large quantities of Reb M and Reb D from the stevia plant in a sustainable way.

Andrew Ohmes, global stevia business leader for Cargill said: “Cargill has set a new benchmark for sweetness without calories with our EverSweet sweetener.

“Cargill is excited to bring EverSweet sweetener to the market.

“EverSweet sweetener provides healthier options to consumers whether our customers use it in beverages, dairy products or nutritional bars to name a few.

“Our goal has always been to address our customers’ needs to make lower calorie products that taste great and are affordable to all.”
