Disclosed are steviol glycosides referred to as rebaudioside V and rebaudioside W. Also disclosed are methods for producing rebaudioside M (Reb M), rebausoside G (Reb G), rebaudioside KA (Reb KA), rebaudioside V (Reb V) and rebaudioside (Reb W).

Methods of preparing steviol glycosides, including Rebaudioside D, Rebaudioside E, Rebaudioside M, Rebaudioside N and Rebaudioside O are provided herein. Sweetener and sweetened consumables containing Rebaudioside D, Rebaudioside E, Rebaudioside M, Rebaudioside N and Rebaudioside O are also provided herein.

What claimed is a method of sweetening or enhancing sweetening effect of a composition that is administered orally to an individual by adding a specific triterpene glycoside obtained from Momordica grosvenorii (Siraitia grosvenori).

Methods for recombinant and enzymatic production of mogroside compounds and compositions containing mogroside compounds are provided by this invention.

The present invention relates generally to the production of steviol glycosides. Provided is a method for enzymatically providing a modified steviol glycoside, comprising incubating a steviol glycoside substrate in the presence of sucrose and the glucansucrase GTF180 of Lactobacillus reuteri strain 180, or a mutant thereof having the desired transglycosylation activity. Also provided are modified steviol glycosides obtainable by a method of the invention, and the use thereof as low-glycemic sweetener.

Sweetener and flavor compositions with improved taste profiles are disclosed. Also disclosed are methods of making and methods of using such sweetener and flavor compositions.

Disclosed are steviol glycosides referred to as rebaudioside V and rebaudioside W. Also disclosed are methods for producing rebaudioside M (Reb M), rebausoside G (Reb G), rebaudioside KA (Reb KA), rebaudioside V (Reb V) and rebaudioside (Reb W).

Co-precipitates of a water insoluble food ingredient material and a hydrophilic polymer, and edible aqueous microdispersions of such co-precipitates are provided. The water insoluble food ingredient material may include rebaudioside D and the hydrophilic polymer may include carboxymethyl cellulose. Methods of making co-precipitates of a water insoluble food ingredient material and a hydrophilic polymer are provided.

Methods of preparing concentrated solutions having relatively high steviol glycoside and/or mogroside content are provided herein. The concentrated solutions are stable and can be used to prepared beverage syrups and, ultimately, beverages. Methods of preparing beverage syrups and beverages are also detailed herein.

The present disclosure relates to compositions including a plurality of steviol glycosides. The present disclosure also relates to sweetener compositions and sweetened compositions including a combination of steviol glycosides, and uses of such sweetener compositions to prepare sweetened compositions including food, beverages, dental products, pharmaceuticals, nutraceuticals, and the like.
