Monk Fruit Sweetener Powder with Allulose 450g – 1:2 Sugar Replacer
Description
What Is Monk Fruit?
Monk fruit is a small fruit native to southern China, traditionally valued for its sweetness. Unlike most fruits, its intense sweetness comes from plant compounds called mogrosides.
These compounds are much sweeter than regular sugar and are handled differently by the body. Monk fruit extract provides sweetness with negligible calories, making it a popular alternative to conventional sugar.
What Is Allulose?
Allulose is a rare sugar found naturally in small amounts in foods such as figs, raisins, corn, and jackfruit. It tastes similar to regular sugar and helps provide the sweetness, texture and browning needed in many recipes. Unlike regular sugar, allulose is metabolised differently by the body, providing negligible calories.
Why Do We Blend Monk Fruit with Allulose?
Pure monk fruit extract is intensely sweet, roughly 200 times sweeter than sugar, so even a tiny amount can make a big difference. That sounds great, but this makes it difficult to measure on its own for everyday cooking, as it doesn’t have the bulk or texture of sugar.
That’s where allulose comes in. Allulose adds bulk and helps create a more familiar sugar-like taste and texture. Together, they make a sweetener that is easier to measure and use in everyday chai, coffee, smoothies, and desserts.
Why Did We Choose Allulose Over Other Bulking Ingredients?
Many monk fruit sweeteners use ingredients such as maltodextrin, starch, or erythritol to provide bulk and balance sweetness. Maltodextrin is a carbohydrate that can raise blood sugar, while starch adds carbohydrates and calories. Erythritol can produce a cooling sensation and may cause digestive discomfort in some people.
Allulose costs more than common bulking ingredients, but we chose it because it tastes like sugar, without the cooling effect or noticeable aftertaste. It provides sweetness with negligible calories and is a thoughtful alternative for everyday sweetening.

Why do many other brands use erythritol instead?
Many brands use erythritol because it is comparatively less expensive and widely available. However, erythritol can cause bloating or gas for some people & also give a cooling aftertaste. We choose allulose for a smoother taste and better digestive comfort.

Yes. It provides sweetness with negligible calories, making it suitable for those reducing sugar intake and trying to lose weight.
Why is this sweetener expensive?
Monk fruit sweetener made with allulose generally costs more than regular sugar and is also more expensive than monk fruit blended with erythritol.
This is because allulose is significantly costlier than erythritol. It is a rare sugar found naturally in very small amounts. In contrast, erythritol is more widely available, produced at a much larger scale, and therefore more affordable.
Monk fruit extract is a premium ingredient due to its limited availability and specialised extraction process. We chose to blend it with allulose to create a more balanced, sugar-like sweetness and mouthfeel, without the cooling effect often associated with erythritol-based sweeteners.
