Question 1

Is there any product that does not add erythritol or other sweeteners to Lakanto?  Is nothing pure anymore?

Accepted Answer

Lakanto has released a monkfruit only liquid sweetener. There is still water added to it. We understand it can be frustrating to not have the pure product very available. There is a reason however. Monk fruit is more than 300 times sweeter than sugar. When you only need a teaspoon, for example, it is difficult to measure the 300th part of monkfruit extract to get the sweetness you want. By adding erythritol, it becomes easier to get the sweetness you want and still avoid calories, toxins, artificial harmful ingredients. Erythritol is a fermented non GMO ingredient that is gentle on the digestive system. Combined with pure monkfruit it allows for greater versatility without negative impact.  Let us know if you have further questions.

Question 2

The words "natural flavors" still wasn't defined in the previous post. Is this a part of the ingredients list that you purchase from another source?

Accepted Answer

We use the following natural flavors:  licorice, vanilla, and citrus.  Our natural flavors are plant-based and all natural.  Our exact formula is proprietary, but it doesn't contain MSG and is soy-free.
