About Product

Erythritol is a sugar alcohol used as a sugar substitute for over one hundred years.

It is a naturally-occurring sugar alcohol found in some fruits and fermented foods. It was first discovered in 1848 by a Scottish chemist, John Stenhouse, who isolated it from a sugar beet fermentation process.

Erythritol has been used as a sugar substitute in Japan since the early 1990s and in the U.S. since the early 2000s. It is commonly used in sugar-free or low-calorie foods, as it is non-caloric and has a low glycemic index.

It is also used as a bulk sweetener in toothpaste, mouthwashes, and other oral care products.

Our Erythritol is produced in a GMP / ISO9001-certified facility and meets the standards of purity set by U.S. Pharmacopoeia. Each batch undergoes extensive testing for purity and safety.
Suggested Use: Use as a tabletop sugar replacement. Add as desired to recipes, drinks, or baked goods.
Ingredients: Erythritol.
Origin: Grown and extracted in China and packaged with care in Florida, USA.
Certifications: ISO9001.
