Pure Thaumatin Powder for Natural Sweetening Solutions

What Is Thaumatin

Thaumatin powder is a natural sweet protein extracted from African arrowroot. It is natural, low in calories, safe and non-toxic, and can be degraded into the amino acids needed by the human body.

It is a natural sweetener and flavoring agent derived from the fruit of the West African katemfe (Thaumatococcus daniellii) plant. It is known for its intense sweetness, which is much greater than that of sucrose (table sugar), yet it has a clean, sweet taste without any bitter aftertaste. Thaumatin is often used as a low-calorie sugar substitute in food and beverage products, particularly in combination with other sweeteners to enhance sweetness profiles or mask off-flavors. Additionally, it is used in the food industry to enhance the flavor of certain foods and beverages.
