Our monk fruit portfolio contains a range of products designed to help formulators achieve excellent taste performance. Monk fruit sweeteners and monk fruit flavor modifiers are produced from monk fruit, a member of the melon family that grows in the remote highlands
of Asia. Considered a “national treasure” in China, monk fruit has been harvested by monks for centuries and used to make tea.
PUREFRUIT™ Monk Fruit Extract is a versatile, calorie-free sweetener that blends well with other sweeteners. PUREFRUIT™ Monk Fruit Extract is available as a readily soluble powder for easy formulation. It is pH stable at low and neutral conditions, and is heat stable – making it a flexible, functional ingredient for use in your recipes. The fruit’s pulp contains sweet compounds called mogrosides, of which one compound, mogroside V, provides a desired sweet characteristic.
