Daepyung Co., Ltd. produces and exports Stevia extract powders, including Stevioside, Enzymatically modified Stevia and RebaudiosideAbased products.
Steviol Glycoside is a natural sweetener extracted from the leaves of Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni. Steviol Glycoside is reportedly 200-300 times sweeter than sugar, but contributes no calories to the diet and delivers a fresh taste. They have no browning reaction and no dental cavities.
In addition, they are heat-, acid- and alkali-stable, and do not ferment. As they are already considered safe when used as a sweetener, they are increasingly widely used in beverage, liquor, confectionery and various other foodstuffs. In particular, Stevioside is drawing keen attention as supplements for synthetic sweeteners such as saccharin and aspartame, which still dominate the synthetic sweetener market.
