Stevia (powdered)

Stevia is a natural, zero-calorie sweetener extracted from the leaves of the stevia plant, with an intense sweetness many times that of sugar and a slightly bitter, liquorice-like aftertaste in some preparations. It is used as a sugar substitute in drinks, baking, and cooking, though its concentrated sweetness means only a small amount is needed, and it does not provide the bulk or browning that sugar does. Products vary in sweetness depending on how much they are diluted with other ingredients.

In powdered form, this ingredient settles densely into a cup, generally weighing more per volume than a coarser or granulated form.
