At MonkVee Natural, we offer four unique products to fill different sweetness needs. Our sweeteners are entirely natural, non-GMO, with zero carbs, zero calories, and zero glycemic index, making them perfect for people with diabetes, dieters on paleo, keto, low carbohydrate, and vegan diets, or anyone else!
Our monk fruit product line includes our Golden Monk Fruit, Original Monk Fruit, and Pure Monk Fruit Extract. We also offer Pure Stevia Extract as an additional natural sweetener option.
MonkVee sweeteners are versatile and can be incorporated into many different recipes. Each has unique characteristics, which enhance food and drinks in different ways. Let’s talk a bit more about where each product shines most.
MonkVee Golden Monk Fruit is one of our two monk fruit blends, perfectly combined with erythritol to produce a honey-like sweetener that bakes just like sugar! It has that “golden” touch that takes your recipes up a notch while mimicking the effects of sugar at a 1:1 ratio. You can use it to replace the sweetener in any recipe that calls for brown sugar, like a delicious apple crumble topping, a chewy chocolate chip cookie, poached pears, or a caramelized salmon.
MonkVee Original Monk Fruit is our other monk fruit blend. It is the ultimate sugar-free, natural sugar substitute! This product also measures 1:1 with sugar, without any of the harmful effects of sugar. It’s so simple to use this blend in almost any recipe, with results identical to the texture, volume, and sweetness of sugar. The options are endless. Try MonkVee Original Monk Fruit it in your next cheesecake recipe, pasta sauce, blueberry pie, or pancake batter.
MonkVee Pure Monk Fruit Extract lives up to its name- it is pure monk fruit goodness! With an estimation of being around 250 times as sweet as traditional sugar, our monk fruit extract is essentially a bottle of powdered gold. Our unique and precise extraction process brings you the best sugar alternative. Our product can be measured with our super convenient micro-scoop, included in the package. It measures 1/32 of a teaspoon, which compares to the same sweetness as ½ tablespoon of sugar, so all the guesswork is cut out. Use MonkVee Pure Monk Fruit Extract in items like coffee, yogurt, smoothies, and salad dressings, which need the sweetness but not the bulk and texture that sugar provides.
MonkVee Pure Stevia Extract offers the same benefits as our monk fruit products, such as zero carbs, totally natural, keto, vegan and paleo-friendly, non-GMO, and zero glycemic index. The stevia extract jar also includes a micro-scoop, since its sweetness is up to 300 times as sweet as sugar. It’s truly a matter of preference for those choosing between the stevia extract and the monk fruit extract as they both have no fillers or additives, just pure sweetness. You can use MonkVee Pure Stevia Extract in any recipe that needs some sweetness without texture modification. Try it out in your secret sauce recipe, tea, pudding, fruit salad, or spice rub.
Choose your favorite, or mix and match. MonkVee has a sweetener for every recipe!
