ERLANGER, Ky. — WILD Flavors continues its commitment to health, wellness, and natural products by promoting the broader use of Stevia through WILD's entire line of Sunwin Stevia(TM) products — all FDA GRAS affirmed (FDA Letters of No Objection #GRN000303 & #GRN000304). These include Sunwin Stevia – Reb-A 98, Sunwin Stevia – Reb-A 95, Sunwin Stevia – Reb-A 80/95% Steviol Glycosides, Sunwin Stevia – Reb-A 60/95% Steviol Glycosides.
WILD has also developed a comprehensive range of proprietary Taste Modification Solutions for Stevia applications. These systems address mouthfeel, masking, sweet enhancement, and blocking of bitterness that improve the taste profile of foods and beverages containing Stevia. By rounding out the flavor profiles and masking the Stevia taste profile issues, these ingredients and blends improve the finished product while enhancing Stevia's sweetening properties.
WILD's Taste Modification Solutions for Stevia do not contain sugar alcohols, such as erythritol. Sugar alcohols can have a cooling sensation, can be difficult to dissolve and have a high cost-in-use in many applications.
A key benefit of WILD's Taste Modification Solutions is that they are labeled as "Natural Flavors." Developed using a trained sensory panel for Stevia tasting, these unique modification systems were developed as platforms that are used and specialized for different applications and levels of Reb-A in Stevia. This approach enables our customers to select the best sweetening system for their unique product and cost objectives.
