Abstract
Steviol glycoside compositions having improved sweetness and flavor profiles are described.
Claims3
A method for improving the sweetness profile of a steviol glycoside composition to be similar to or even surpass the sweetness profile of a highly purified steviol glycoside comprising
- providing a steviol glycoside composition comprising 18-20% glycosylated Rebaudioside Q and 17-19% glycosylated Rebaudioside R, wherein the glycosylated Rebaudioside Q and glycosylated Rebaudioside R by weight of the steviol glycoside composition;
- wherein the highly purified steviol glycoside is defined as Rebaudioside A with a purity of at least 97%;
- and wherein the sweetness improvement is tested in an acidified water medium.
A steviol glycoside composition comprising 18-20% by weight glycosylated Rebaudioside Q and about 17-19% glycosylated Rebaudioside R by weight of the steviol glycoside composition.
