Zero-calorie sweeteners (sucralose / stevia)
Energy: Negligible per serving (planning figure — the product label is the final reference)
Shelf life: Long — years sealed and dry; per label.
Storage: Dry store, sealed against humidity — powders and tablets clump when damp.
- Diet and low-calorie orders — iced americano, cold brew, karak on request
- Zero-added-sugar mocktail builds
- Never a 1:1 swap for sugar in recipes — the sweetness is concentrated
Concentrated sweetness — dosing is completely different from sugar, so measure, never eyeball a swap. A bitter aftertaste can appear, especially when over-dosed; stevia shows it first.
