TASTEVA™ STEVIA SWEETENER WINS DAIRY INNOVATION AWARD
Tate Lyle, a global provider of food ingredients and solutions, is pleased to announce that its innovative, natural, no-calorie sweetener, TASTEVA™ Stevia Sweetener has been named Best Dairy Ingredient in the Dairy Innovation Awards, providing further confirmation that TASTEVA™ Stevia Sweetener is well placed to meet the needs of customers in the dairy industry as well as a broad range of other applications.
TASTEVA™ Stevia Sweetener, a versatile, clean tasting sweetener, is easy to formulate with and has shown in tests to be preferred by consumers offering a superior taste profile over Reb A 97 and other stevia products.
In its awards submission, Tate Lyle demonstrated that in a strawberry yoghurt recipe it had used TASTEVA™ Stevia Sweetener to deliver sweetness from a natural source, without the bitter aftertaste often associated with other high purity, stevia-based sweeteners while also reducing total sugar levels by 40%.
Luis Fernandez, VP Global Applications at Tate Lyle, said: “This award recognises the team work between our ingredient developers and our food application scientists. A combination of TASTEVA™ Stevia Sweetener, with its unique sensory properties, and our dairy application formulation expertise helps us to create new innovative finished products with our customers to help meet consumer expectations”.
