Lakanto

What is Lakanto?

Lakanto make naturally sugar-free foods with no artificial ingredients to help people curb their sugar cravings and lead a healthier, more wholesome way of life. The power behind their all-natural pantry staples is monk fruit, a natural sweetener that’s up to 300 times sweeter than refined sugar and can be used as a diabetic-friendly sugar substitute in baking, sweets, drinks and other foods. 

Inspired by the healing monks who first discovered monk fruit, Lakanto seek to carry on the tradition of healing with their range of sweeteners made to eliminate sugar addiction using sustainable processes in a zero-emissions processing plant. Unlike fruits that use sucrose or fructose to provide sweetness, Lakanto monk fruit uses antioxidants called mogrosides for sweetness which have a zero glycaemic index and are gentler on the digestive system.

What is the Main Ingredient in Lakanto Sweeteners?

The star ingredient in every Lakanto product is monk fruit extract derived from monk fruit, an ancient Southeast Asian fruit also known as ‘The Immortals’ Fruit’. Lakanto sustainably source their monk fruit from farms in the remote highlands of southern China and maintain the freshness of the fruit for as long as possible to ensure maximum flavour and sweetness.
