Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Steviol glycoside compositions having improved sweetness and flavor profiles are described.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A method for improving the sweetness profile of a steviol glycoside composition to be similar to or even surpass the sweetness profile of a highly purified steviol glycoside comprising providing a steviol glycoside composition comprising 18-20% glycosylated Rebaudioside Q and 17-19% glycosylated Rebaudioside R, wherein the glycosylated Rebaudioside Q and glycosylated Rebaudioside R by weight of the steviol glycoside composition; wherein the highly purified steviol glycoside is defined as Rebaudioside A with a purity of at least 97%; and wherein the sweetness improvement is tested in an acidified water medium. 2. The method of claim 1 , wherein improving the sweetness profile is characterized by reduced bitterness, astringency, off-note, and bitter aftertaste taste attributes as compared to the highly purified Rebaudioside A. 3. A steviol glycoside composition comprising 18-20% by weight glycosylated Rebaudioside Q and about 17-19% glycosylated Rebaudioside R by weight of the steviol glycoside composition.
