Product Description
Thaumatin is a natural high-intensity sweetener and flavor modifier derived from the fruit of Thaumatococcus daniellii, a tropical plant native to West Africa. It is widely used in food additives, natural sweeteners, and Nutritional Ingredients due to its extremely high sweetness potency—up to 2,000–3,000 times sweeter than sucrose.
Unlike conventional sweeteners, thaumatin not only provides sweetness but also enhances flavor profiles, masks bitterness, and improves mouthfeel in various formulations. This makes it highly valuable in functional foods, beverages, dietary supplements, and pharmaceutical applications.
As global demand grows for Plant Extracts and clean-label ingredients, thaumatin is increasingly adopted in sugar reduction strategies across the US, EU, and Australian markets.

According to a study in Food Chemistry (2018), thaumatin demonstrated strong sweetness enhancement and flavor-modifying properties in reduced-sugar formulations.
According to a study in Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry (2015), thaumatin showed high stability under a wide pH range and heat processing conditions, supporting its use in food systems.
Our Thaumatin is produced through advanced extraction and purification processes to ensure high purity, consistent sweetness, and regulatory compliance.
