Monk Fruit Extract Powder (10:1) - Natural Zero-Calorie Sweetener

California-Manufactured | NSF GMP Certified | 2-Day U.S. Shipping

Product Overview

Momordica grosvenorii Swingle fruit is used to make high-potency monk fruit extract powder. It is water-extracted at a concentration ratio of 10:1, and it has 150–300 times the sweetness of sugar without any calories or glycaemic effects.

Perfect for companies that make drinks, bake goods, or supplements and want to find clean-label ways to sweeten their products.

Technical Details

Momordica grosvenori Swingle fruit is the botanical source.

Method of Extraction: Using water (no chemicals)

Mogrosides are active compounds.

Needs to be stored somewhere cool, dry, and out of direct light.

Key Product Specifications

Key Performance Characteristics

Clean Sweetness Profile

Water extraction keeps the natural flavour compounds, so the sweetness is like honey and there isn't any metallic or bitter aftertaste like there is with stevia-based alternatives. Delayed onset sweetness works like the way sugar does in the body.

Processing Stability

Maintains sweetness through:

· High-heat pasteurization and UHT treatment

· Acidic environments (pH 2.0-10.0)

· Fermentation processes

· Freeze-thaw cycles

Formulation Advantages

· High water solubility (clear solutions in beverages)

· No precipitation during shelf life

· Masks bitterness of caffeine, vitamins, minerals

· Compatible with protein matrices

· Doesn't interfere with dairy fermentation

Health-Focused Claims Support

· Zero calories

· Zero glycemic index

· Suitable for diabetic-friendly products

· Keto and low-carb compatible

· Dental-safe

· Plant-based/vegan

Common Applications

Beverages

RTD teas, protein shakes, energy drinks, carbonated soft drinks, kombucha, sports hydration. High solubility creates clear solutions; stability through acidic pH ranges.

Bakery Products

Cookies, cakes, muffins, bread. Combine with erythritol or allulose to replicate sugar's bulk and texture. Retains sweetness through baking temperatures where some artificial sweeteners degrade.

Dairy & Frozen Desserts

Yogurt, ice cream, frozen novelties with monk fruit extract powder. Withstands fermentation in cultured products; doesn't cause protein curdling. Manages freezing point in frozen applications.

Nutritional Supplements

Protein powders, meal replacements, nutrition bars, chewable tablets. Improves palatability without adding carbohydrates.

Confections & Sauces

Sugar-free candies, chocolate, syrups, condiments. Provides sweetness in low-moisture environments.

Manufacturing & Quality Control

Earth Made Nutritions Inc. operates a dedicated extraction facility in California using advanced chromatography equipment for consistent mogroside content.

Testing Protocol (Every Batch)

· HPLC verification of active compounds

· Pesticide residue screening

· Heavy metals analysis

· Microbial contamination testing

· Moisture and particle size verification

Supply Chain

Four warehouse locations across the United States. In-stock inventory typically ships within 2 business days of order confirmation.

Formulation Guidance

Usage Rates

Due to 150-300x sweetness potency, typical usage is 0.3-1% of the amount you'd use with sugar. Exact rate depends on:

· Target sweetness level

· Other ingredients (acids, salts, fats affect perception)

· Processing conditions

Bulking Considerations

Monk fruit extract doesn't provide the bulk and texture that sugar contributes. For applications requiring volume, combine with:

· Erythritol (for baking, dry mixes)

· Allulose (closer to sugar's properties)

· Maltodextrin (if calorie-free isn't required)

Synergies

Often blended with:

· Stevia (to reduce both ingredients' off-notes)

· Sugar alcohols (for texture and cooling effect)

FAQ

Q: What's the difference between 10:1 extract and mogroside percentages?

A: Our 10:1 ratio yields 1kg of extract from 10kg of fresh fruit. Some providers list mogroside V proportion (25–50%). Typical mogroside content in our 10:1 extract is 25-35%. Grades for mogroside are available upon request.

Q: Does it work for hot-fill beverages?

A: Yes. Compatible with 85-95°C hot-fill operations and 160°C stability. No pasteurisation or retort sterilisation degradation.

Q: Will final items crystallise?

A: Well-formulated goods don't crystallise. Fully dissolve high-concentration syrups or low-water goods during processing. We advise on formulations.

Q: How does it compare to stevia in taste?

A: Formulators say it tastes cleaner than stevia, has less bitterness, and no metallic undertones. A more natural flavour is achieved via a later sweetness onset than sugar.

Q; Orders include what paperwork?

A: Shipments include:

Certificate of Analysis (COA)

Sheet of specifications

SDS (Safety Data Sheet)

Copy of certification available upon request.

Q: Do you provide bespoke extraction ratios or mogroside percentages?

A: Yes. Orders with minimum manufacturing runs can have bespoke specs. Talk to us about your needs.
