Stevia is naturally sweeter than sugar. So, like many zero calorie sweeteners, it is blended with dextrose. This helps create the perfect balance of sweetness, making it easier to both pour and measure. Rooted in Brooklyn, the In The Raw® sweetener family business began long before the natural food movement. Since introducing our original Sugar in the Raw® in 1970, we have branched out into other sweetener sources found in nature giving us Agave in the Raw®, Monk Fruit in the Raw®, and of course Stevia in the Raw®. That leads us to this box of zero-calorie Stevia in the Raw. Each packet has the sweetness of about two teaspoons of sugar, without all the calories. How sweet is that?No matter how you sweeten, the In the Raw® family has just the right sweet for every taste. Sweeten a tea, a cup of coffee. Hot or cold. Sprinkle it on cereal, douse a piece of fruit. Cook and bake with it too. Whatever you sweeten, just do it with Stevia in the Raw.
