What is Stevia Confectioners Sugar?
Stevia Confectioners Sugar is a natural, non-nutritive high-intensity sweetener. It is extracted from the leaves of stevia Rebaudiana Bertoni, a small shrub of the Compositae family in northeastern Paraguay, native to South America. It is a low-calorie glycoside, its sweetness is 200~300 times that of sucrose, and the calories are only about 1/300 of that of sucrose.
Stevia Sugar powder does not participate in metabolism in the body, does not accumulate, and has no toxic effects. Its safety has been recognized by international organizations such as FAO and WHO. More than 20 countries including Paraguay, Argentina, Malaysia, and Brazil have approved the use of stevia as a food additive. In 1995, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved stevia for use in dietary supplements. In 2008, the FDA granted stevia GRAS designation, allowing stevia to be used in food and beverages.

Applications of Stevia Sugar powder in the Food and Beverage Industry:
Stevia is widely used in food and beverage industries due to its high sweetness, low calorie, fresh taste, and no side effects on the human body. So far, stevia has been widely used in beverages, candied fruit, preserved fruit, cakes, dairy products, functional foods such as blood pressure lowering or weight loss, as well as in the cigarette industry.
Although stevia is sweet, Stevia Sugar powder has a bitter and licorice aftertaste. The reason may be the residue of bitter impurities in the extraction process or the influence of the basic structure and glycoside of stevia. However, when stevia is mixed with citric acid, malic acid, lactic acid, and amino acid, the influence of the aftertaste of stevia can be eliminated, which is beneficial to improve the taste of stevia.
In addition, stevia is compounded with other sweeteners to make compound sweeteners. For example, the natural compounding of erythritol and stevia not only enhances its health care function but also reduces the cost of erythritol and masks the bad taste of stevia. Stevia can replace 15% to 35% of sucrose to produce beverages or alcohol, not only does not affect the taste. And because of the antibacterial effect of stevia, it can also prolong the shelf life of beverages and improve the quality of the wine.
The use of stevia in the production of preserved fruits and cakes not only greatly reduces the cost, but also reduces the calories, and meets the needs of people who consume low sugar daily.
The use of sugar free stevia powder in the production of dairy products. Not only can it improve the taste of dairy products, but stevia also acts as a growth promoter of bifidobacteria. Not only can promote the proliferation of bifidobacteria and lactobacilli in the human body, but also inhibit the growth of Escherichia coli.
Replacing 30%-50% sucrose with stevia to process aquatic products can prevent protein deterioration in aquatic products or browning and mildew caused by rancidity reactions. Using stevia in condiments such as soy sauce not only prevents its browning reaction but also suppresses its saltiness.
