Stevia powder is a natural, plant-derived sweetener made from the leaves of the Stevia rebaudiana plant. It’s a popular alternative to sugar due to its intense sweetness, which is approximately 50 to 300 times sweeter than sucrose, and its low-calorie profile.
Zero calories, zero carbs and zero fat
Low carb, keto and diabetic friendly
Uses
Sweetening Beverages: Stevia powder can be used to sweeten drinks such as tea, coffee, lemonade, and smoothies. Because of its high sweetness level, only a small amount is needed.
Baking and Cooking: It can replace sugar in recipes for baked goods, sauces, and dressings. However, since stevia doesn’t caramelize like sugar, it might not be suitable for all types of baking.
Dietary and Health Benefits: Ideal for people with diabetes or those looking to reduce their calorie intake, stevia doesn’t raise blood sugar levels and contains no calories. It also doesn’t contribute to tooth decay.
Flavor Enhancer: Beyond sweetness, stevia can enhance the flavors of other ingredients in recipes, especially in combination with flavors like vanilla or citrus.
Homemade Products: It’s often used in making homemade yogurt, smoothies, and energy bars as a natural sweetener.
