What is Stevia?
Stevia comes from a leaf that in its natural state is 15 times sweeter than sugar. When extracted it can be 300-400 times sweeter than sugar. It offers a healthy alternative to the variety of unhealthy sugar products. It has Zero calories, Zero carbs, and Zero effect on glycemic index.
What is Stevia-Intl?
Our Stevia is a naturally delicious, zero-calorie, zero glycemic index natural sweetener made from dried powdered leaf of the Stevia plant (Rebaudioside “A”).
The sweetest part of the leaf is then isolated to create a sweetener extract that is 300 to 400 times sweeter than sugar.
Uses of Stevia
Add it to your coffee, tea, cappuccino, water or any drink whatsoever. Sprinkle it over cereal or fresh fruit. You can also blend our Stevia-International™ products with fruit and skim milk or yogurt to make a delicious and healthy, low-calorie smoothie.
In recipes for sweetened sauces and beverages, all the sugar can be replaced with Stevia-International™ products. However, recipes for most baked goods require sugar or other bulking agents for proper volume and texture. For best results, experiment by substituting half the amount of sugar in a recipe with the sweetening equivalence of Stevia-International™ powder product. Stevia-powders are heat stable, so it is perfect for use in cooking and baking.

Quick cooking tips with Stevia-Intl
When sugar is removed in baking, a certain amount of moisture is lost. To improve the texture and volume of low-sugar baked goods, experiment with the following tips:
- Decrease dry ingredients by 25%. For example, if a recipe calls for 1 cup flour, use 3/4 cup instead.
- Bake in a slightly smaller pan.
- Slightly reduce baking time. For cakes, reduce the time by 10 minutes for layer cakes and 20 minutes for loaf or Bundt cakes, then test with a toothpick.
- Add an extra egg or two egg whites. For cakes, fold egg whites into the cake batter to produce a lighter, higher cake.
- Increase some of the liquid ingredients, such as water, milk or juice by 1/4 cup.
- Increasing the leavening agents (baking powder and baking soda) will also improve volume, but do not use more than twice the amount your recipe calls for. Since these ingredients contain sodium, you may want to use less salt than your recipe recommends.
