Monk Fruit Sweetener

A natural sugar substitute derived from monk fruit.

Monk fruit sweetener has been around for years, yet its popularity has grown in recent years due to the increase in availability. Monk fruit sweetener, also known as monk fruit extract, is directly derived from monk fruit.

The sweetness of monk fruit sweetener comes from the presence of antioxidants called mogrosides rather than sugar. Naturally, this sweetener can be up to 250 times sweeter than traditional sugar. Because of this, oftentimes monk fruit extract is combined with sugar alcohols such as erythritol to subdue the sweetness.
