Strauss Group has successfully produced an extract of tiger nut tubers (Cyperus esculentus), a natural source of sweetness. The tiger nut has its roots in Spain and is integrated into the local food culture of the country, as well as in South America.
Rich in vitamins, minerals and non-water-soluble dietary fiber, the tubers contain fats similar to olive oil. It also has a high content of resistant probiotic starch serving as food and a substrate to gut-friendly bacteria, the company notes. T
