Background: (You find even more information about our Stevia HERE)
There are a few manufacturers out there, but we have found one that delivers both organically certified and the highest quality. And with a shorter chain of distribution, we believe our prices are unbeatable!
The quality has to do with both the plant itself and the ground leaves, and how the extraction of white crystals is made.
There are different species in the Stevia family. Stevia Rebaudiana is the one that contains most of the sweet component rebaudioside A, that has the most neutral sweet flavor, and least of the anis-seed/liquorice aftertaste.
When picking from the bush for drying and subsequent grinding, it can be done by hand to get only the leaves, or mechanically, where stems are included, which have more of a bitter flavor and contain only three percent stevioside.
Stevia is grown different ways, with or without pesticides and artificial fertilizers.
When extracting into white crystals, a greater or smaller quota of this rebaudioside A can be attained. There are white crystals that have a quota of 10 to 80 percent rebaudioside A.
FriendlyShop has aquired Stevia of the best quality.
Our dried leaf Stevia Green comes from Stevia Rebaudiana with the most neutral sweet flavor.
It is ground from hand-picked leaves; no stems are included.
It is grown organically and certified as such; no pesticides and no artificial fertilizers.
Our Stevia Crystals are extracted in a way that yields an 80 percent quota of pure rebaudioside A, the neutral sweetness.
Just now, the first shipment to FriendlyShop has arrived! We are definitely ready for sale pre-Christmas! We can now begin replacing our sugary recepies with Stevia Green in coffe, spiced tea, Christmas baking - the possibilities for a sweet Christmas without calories are endless!
