About

Swerve® is the first all-natural zero calorie sweetener that tastes, measures, cooks and bakes like sugar. One cup of Swerve® equals one cup of sugar.

No special recipes needed for cooking and baking. Now you can have the foods you love without the calories. Swerve® is not degraded by heat, so you can cook with it just like sugar, something you can’t really do with other sweeteners.

Swerve® has zero glycemic index, so its perfect for diabetics; Swerve® does not affect blood glucose or insulin levels. Finally, those with diabetes can use any cookbook they choose.

And Swerve® has no bitter aftertaste, like some sugar alternatives like stevia. Unlike sugar alcohols such as xylitol, sorbitol and maltitol there is no digestive intolerance, no laxative effect.

Swerve® is manufactured using a fermentation process and the outcome is a sweet product that occurs naturally in many fruits and vegetables. Swerve® is an all natural sweetener that is based on our own proprietary erythritol formulation and other naturally occurring ogliosaccharides from plant fibers. Erythritol is only ≤60% as sweet as sugar and by itself, does not perform as well as sugar. Our proprietary formulation actually improves the characteristics of plain erythitol, overcoming these issues, enabling us to create a product unlike any other, with characteristics most like sugar – able to cook, bake, candy, freeze and brown like sugar.

Erythritol is made by enzymatic processes where enzymes break-down natural foods that are a part of your everyday diet (fruits and vegetables). The process that we use to yield the white crystals is the introduction of microorganisms classified as “osmotolerant”. The non-GMO microorganisms are introduced, and during that 3 day “fermentation” process a white crystalline powder is formed. Those crystals are then purified with natural activated charcoal and ultrafiltration, no chemicals involved.

Other companies introduce things like stevia to erythritol to boost the sweetness to ≥300%. Our unique process yields white crystals that are 1:1 to the sweetness of sugar, making it easier to measure and bake with.

With zero calories, properties close to sucrose, and flavor enhancing capabilities, Swerve® is the natural choice for today’s sweetening needs.

From sweetening your favorite beverage, to use in a wide variety of reduced-calorie and sugar-free foods, Swerve® is perfect for all your sweetening needs. With a caloric value of zero, Swerve® is very popular for baking and as a general sweetener for those concerned with calories or blood sugar and insulin levels
