Abstract

Stevia rebaudiana berfoni is a natural sweet perennial plant of the Asteraceae family and a native of north eastern Paraguay. The crude stevia leaves and herbal green powder is 10-15 times sweeter than sucrose; a good quality leaf is estimated to be 30 times sweeter than sucrose. It has slight after - taste bitterness. Sweetness of one gram of stevia in 100ml of water was equivalent to a sucrose solution containing 20 g of sucrose.
