Stevia’s sweet sustainability
Brands that provide healthier products that are also better for our planet are capturing the attention of consumers; and stevia helps them do it. Made with innovative production practices and featuring a natural sweetness intensity similar to traditional sweeteners, stevia is one sugar substitute that yields more sugar-like taste with an environmentally friendly story.

Add a finishing touch to taste with FMPs
To improve taste while solving better-for-you challenges, Ingredion’s consultative flavor enhancement service offers a full portfolio of flavorings with modifying properties (FMPs).
