Luo Han Guo (Monk Fruit) extracts are natural, high-intensity, zero-calorie sweeteners from the fruit of Siraitia Grosvenorii (Swingle). Monk Fruit extracts are 240 times sweeter than sugar, have a low glycemic index, heat stabled, maintain a stable pH at low and neutral conditions. It also has a soft and clean sweet taste with no bitter after-taste profile.
As the protein market is expanding in the U.S., consumers are looking for cleaner and healthier alternatives to whey and soy proteins. We are proud to say that the Non GMO Project verifies our Pea Protein, and we have FDA full GRAS. It gives a smooth mouthfeel and is neutral in taste, making it suitable to apply in a wide variety of plant-based foods.
Stevia extract is an all-natural zero-calorie sweetener extracted from the leaves of the Stevia Rebaudiana Bertoni. Stevia extracts are heat stable in cooking and baking as well as other high-temperature processing and packaging conditions. Stevia extract is stable in low pH food and beverage process and finished product systems.
Available in Kosher, ISO, Non GMO Project Verified, FDA full GRAS, Clean Label, USDA Organic.
Sucralose is a zero-calorie artificial sweetener and sugar substitute that is 600 times sweeter than sucrose and is heat and pH stable in a range of conditions. It’s widely applicable in low sugar confectionery, bakery, and beverage products with requirements of longer shelf life.

Mitsubishi International Food Ingredients is the exclusive food distributor of Evonik. Evonik offers potassium carbonate (GFSI certified) and potassium bicarbonate for multiple food applications as cited in the examples below.
Ramen Noodles: Potassium carbonate is used in an alkaline solution referred to as Kansui. Most often, Kansui is a solution of potassium carbonate and sodium carbonate. Kansui gives instant noodles the desired texture and color.
Bakery: Potassium bicarbonate can be used as a leavening agent in baking applications as a partial replacement of sodium bicarbonate.
Marinades: Vinegar and lemon juice are commonly used in industrial marinades. The suppliers of such marinades to meat processors and packagers control the pH of the marinades by adding appropriate amounts of potassium carbonate and bicarbonates as buffers.
Beverages: Potassium bicarbonate is used in beverages as a flavoring agent, pH adjuster, and/or electrolyte.
Milk Powders: Potassium carbonate is used as an acidity regulator in milk and cream powders. Also, Potassium carbonate reduces the acidity of the milk powder which improves solubility.
Cocoa Dutching: Potassium carbonate solution wash neutralizes the natural cocoa to a slightly basic pH, creates a reddish-brown/richer hue and a smooth mellow flavor, and is paired with baking powder.
Wine Deacidification: It is typically done before fermentation by the addition of potassium carbonate and bicarbonate for two main reasons: (1) Less danger of losing aroma compounds, and (2) wine yeast and lactic acid bacteria are less susceptible to higher pH.
Raisin Drying: Potassium carbonate is used as a quick-drying agent for raisins. Grapes are naturally covered with a thin layer of wax. This wax layer can be removed by treating the grapes with a potassium carbonate solution which increases the drying rate.
