[Introduction]

Konjac is a plant that is found in China, Japan and Indonesia. The plant is part of the genus Amorphophallus. Typically, it thrives in the warmer regions of Asia.

The extract of the Konjac root is referred to as Glucomannan. Glucomannan is a fiber-like substance traditionally used in food recipes, but now it is utilized as an alternative means of weight loss. Along with this benefit, konjac extract contains other benefits for the rest of the body as well.

Imperial Sugar Company (ISC) may have cracked the code in creating an all-natural, reduced-sugar sweetener that has a taste profile indistinguishable from sugar. But the proof will be in the pudding –or, to be more precise, in 1,500 commercially produced cookies. ur product doesn’t have the bitter note you find in pure stevia,” says Darrell Gerdes, manager of research and new product development for ISC. “Instead, it gives a clean sugar flavor. In taste panels, when people compared the taste of Steviacane to pure sugar and plain stevia powder, the taste profile for Steviacane scored exactly the same as sugar.”

Ingredients: sugar, acidity regulator: malic acid; stearic acid, sodium, modified starch, magnesium stearate, anti-caking agent: magnesium carbonate; flavorings, colorings: anthocyanins, beetroot, chlorophyllin copper complex, lutein, paprika,
