Stevia Leaves
Stevia is a plant native to South America that has been used for centuries as a natural sweetener. The leaves of the Stevia plant contain compounds called steviol glycosides, which are much sweeter than sugar but have no calories. Stevia is a popular alternative to sugar for those who want to reduce their sugar intake or manage blood sugar levels.
SpiceNest’s Stevia Leaves are pure and can be used in a variety of applications, including teas, baked goods, and other food products.
