REPORT DESCRIPTION Thaumatin Market:Overview Thaumatin is a low calorie sweetener derived from Katemfe fruit, also called 'the miraculous fruit of Sudan'. These are extensively cultivated in the rainforests of West Africa. The fruit is made up of 1 to 3 black seeds surrounded by a gel, and enclosed within a membranous sac known as the aril, which contains the sweetener. Thaumatin is an odorless, water soluble protein which possesses high heat stability. The two main forms of protein present in the Katemfe plant are Thaumatin I and Thaumatin II. Though Thaumatin is 2000 times sweeter than sucrose, it is mainly used as a flavor enhancer rather than a sweetener and it does not contribute to major calories in the diet. Thaumatin is now being used in baked and savory foods, desserts, fruit juices, milk powder, soft drinks, chewing gums, and coffee products. It is generally mixed with other natural sweeteners such as Stevia in order to reduce its bitterness. Due to its licoricelike taste with delayed onset, other artificial sweeteners are preferred over Thaumatin. In the U.S., Thaumatin possesses GRAS status—it does not have approval as a sweetener but widely used as a flavor enhancer. European Food Safety Authority has approved Thaumatin as a sweetener. © Coherent market Insights. All Rights Reserved
