Products
We develop and manufacture superior, highly specified stevia extracts and other naturally sourced ingredients to enhance taste and reduce sugar.
steviose
highest-purity
stevia available
without bitter notes
or aftertaste
Steviose is a family of natural stevia leaf extracts, including Steviose 100 — the world’s highest purity Reb A. It is viewed as the best tasting commercially viable stevia available by leading FMCG and flavor companies.
Steviose 100, our flagship product, delivers clean sweetness without bitter notes or licorice aftertaste and is best suited for deep calorie reductions and demanding applications. It competes well both with ex-leaf and biosynthetic sweeteners, such as Reb M.
The product range also includes various grades to meet lower cost-in-use targets as well as address specific applications.

steviarome
natural flavors
sweetness, amplifies
fruitiness and enhances
savory taste attributes
Steviarome is a range of natural flavors with modifying properties (FMPs) made from stevia leaf extract. It was developed to enhance, or modify, taste attributes of flavorings and foods to which they are added.
FMPs may not have, or impart, a specific characteristic flavor of their own, but can modify the flavor profile by intensifying, or reducing, specific flavor characteristics, making off-notes, or bitterness, or changing the time onset and duration of the perception of specific aspects of the flavor profile.
Almendra has a global license to make and distribute Steviarome. Depending on the type, Steviarome enhances perceived sweetness, amplifies fruitiness and savory taste attributes.

system g
flavor enhancer
provides sugar-like
mouthfeel
Almendra has developed a taste modulation technology for improved perception of sugar like taste in beverages sweetened with stevia leaf extracts, including Reb M, and other noncaloric high potency sweeteners such as aspartame. The major limitations of most high potency sweeteners such as stevia leaf extracts, Reb M sweetener, etc. include extended sweetness linger and absence of sugar-like “mouthfeel”.
Our research has led to the development of a proprietary blend of natural non-sweet compounds that significantly reduce sweetness linger for all non-caloric high potency sweeteners as well as markedly increase mouthfeel for both caloric and noncaloric sweeteners, including sucrose.
