Is there a problem with using PureSweet® in Australia?
No, but if it is to be used as an ingredient in the manufacture of foods, beverages or pharmaceutical products it must be classified as a flavour or flavour extract. If it is to be sold as a retail product through retail outlets, it must be sold as an herbal extract. Under the ANZFA Food Code Standard A6, No 2, Item B, PureSweet® is classified as a “Natural food Concentrate”. The main ingredient of PureSweet®, Stevia, is listed under the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods (ARTG), 1999.
