Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method for the preparation of a sweetener composition.
- the invention also relates to a stable sweetener composition.
- the invention further relates to a method for the preparation of a beverage or foodstuff and to a beverage or foodstuff made with the stable sweetener composition.
- Steviol glycosides are responsible for the sweet taste of the leaves of the stevia plant (Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni). These compounds range in sweetness from 40 to 300 times sweeter than sucrose. They are heat-stable, pH-stable, and do not ferment. They also do not induce a glycemic response when ingested, making them attractive as natural sweeteners to diabetics and others on carbohydrate-controlled diets.
- steviol glycosides are made available as solid compositions since although the anhydrous form of Rebaudioside A is easily dissolved in water, in aqueous solutions, Rebaudioside A forms a hydrate, the solubility of which is rather low (about 8 g/L). Thus, when concentrated RebA solution is prepared, after a while a precipitate of RebA hydrate is formed in this solution. This prevents the use of concentrated syrups of Rebaudioside A either for the preparation of final products such as beverages or dairy products, or for household use.
- the present invention is based on the unexpected identification of a process for preparing a stable sweetener composition, which sweetener composition comprises at least one steviol glycoside, typically rebaudioside A (rebA). Accordingly, the invention concerns a process for the preparation of a sweetener composition in which precipitation of rebA hydrate is prevented, i.e. which is a stable liquid steviol glycoside solution. Typically, when a concentrated rebA solution is prepared, after a while a precipitate of rebA hydrate is formed in this solution.
- the invention is based on the observation that heat treatment of a high purity rebA solution in the presence of an acid (for example phosphoric or citric) permits a stable solution to be prepared. Without wishing to be bound by theory, it seems that rebA is partially (5-10%) converted during heating with acid into rebaudioside B, which performs as a rebA-like impurity preventing further growth of initially formed crystals and hence precipitation.

- the sweetener compositions are characterized by being stable solutions (i.e. liquid compositions in which the one or more steviol remain substantially in solution) for extended periods of time, for example stable for at least about 6 days.
- a sweetener composition is one where substantially all of the steviol glycoside(s) remain(s) in solution, i.e. remain dissolved.
- substantially all of the steviol glycoside(s) implies that at least about 90%, at least about 95%, at least about 98%, at least about 99% of the steviol glycoside(s) remains in solution for the over an extended time period, for example at least about 6 days.
- Stability will vary with temperature. Accordingly, stability according to the invention is determined at about room temperature, for example at a temperature of from about 20°C to about 25°C.
- the sweetener composition may be referred to as a soluble sweetener composition.
- a soluble sweetener composition in this context means that the composition is a liquid composition in which a sweetening compound (i.e. one or more steviol glycoside) is dissolved.

That is to say, the heating is carried out in the presence of a substance which either itself interferes with the crystallization of the steviol glycoside or acts so as to convert a part of the steviol glycoside during the heating step into such a substance.
- the substance may enable conversion of at least part of rebA to rebB during the heating step.
- the liquid composition may comprise an acid. That is to say, the heating step of the process of the invention may be carried out in the presence of an acid.

- the amount of sweetener present in a sweetened composition varies widely depending on the particular type of sweetened composition and its desired sweetness. Those of ordinary skill in the art can readily discern the appropriate amount of sweetener to put in the sweetened composition.
- the amount of the sweetener composition of the invention use depends on the purpose of usage and on the concentration of steviol glycoside(s) in the sweetener composition. It can be added alone or in the combination with other compounds.
- compositions of the present invention which are made using the sweetener composition of the invention can be made by any method known to those skilled in the art that provides homogenous even or homogeneous mixtures of the ingredients. These methods include dry blending, spray drying, agglomeration, wet granulation, compaction, co-crystallization and the like.
- a sweetener composition of the invention may be kept in an appropriate packing using appropriate packing material in any shape or form which is convenient to carry or dispense or store or transport the sweetener composition.
- a sweetener composition of the invention may include functional ingredients, colorants or flavors.
- Example 1 Stabilization of solutions of rebaudioside A
- Table 3 HPLC analyses shows conversion of rebA into rebB at acidic conditions after 2 hours heat treatment at 90°C.
- CMC Carboxymethylcellulose
- mannoproteins (Claristar®, batch MANZL0827A)
- Rebaudioside A 200 mg were weighed in each vial.
- CMC stock solution or Claristar® solution was pipetted to obtain the concentrations given in Table 1.
- These solutions were stored at 90 °C in a stove for 1 hour to ensure that all crystals are dissolved, and a homogeneous solution was obtained by thorough shaking (vortex) before and after the treatment with 90 °C.
- Table 4 Composition of samples (%w/w dry matter) and delay of crystallization (days)
- the stability of the treated solutions was determined at around 10 and around 12 months after preparation and at around 8 months in the case of the alginate and glycerol containing solutions.
- the results are set out in Tables 5 and 6.
- Table 5 Stability evaluation of 10 - 25% Stevia in citric, lactic and malic acid solutions 10 and 12 months after preparation
- Table 6 Stability evaluation of rebaudioside A in alginate and glycerol solutions 8 months after preparation
- Rebaudioside A solutions containing 10 - 25% dissolved in either 0.5 - 1 % acid citric, malic and lactic as prepared according the described procedure showed clear solutions after one year storage at room temperature.
- Rebaudioside A solutions in combination with alginate and glycerol were stable for 8 months.
