Steviol Glycosides – Legislative change that affects your labelling in the EU

Steviol Glycosides are extracted from stevia and are used in the food industry as a no calorie sugar substitute (sweetener). In the EU, Regulation (EU) No. 231/2012 stipulates that the additive is manufactured via an approved, two-phase process and under precious Regulation (EC) No. 1333/2008 should be labelled as ‘Steviol Glycosides’, or by its additive number ‘E960’.  In 2018, an  application for a novel  way to manufacture steviol glycosides enzymatically was submitted to the EC for approval.
