Comparing 2 standards across 9 specifications. 4 key differences identified.
Comparing:
Sucralose (Pure Sweetener)
Stevia Extract (Rebaudioside A 98%)
Sucralose is a high-intensity non-nutritive sweetener synthesized by selectively chlorinating sucrose (replacing three hydroxyl groups with chlorine atoms). It is 600 times sweeter than sucrose with zero calories, zero glycemic impact, and extreme heat stability.
High-purity Stevia extract is a non-caloric steviol glycoside isolated from Stevia rebaudiana. It is 250–350 times sweeter than sucrose with zero calories, zero glycemic impact, and heat stability up to 200°C.
