Sea Sugar™ brings together marine algae, Blue Spirulina, trehalose and thaumatin. Different ingredients with distinct roles, combined in one concentrated formulation.
Nature first.
Science verifies.
Precision formulates.
Three ways to understand Sea Sugar™
What makes the switch different?
The sweet taste stays.
The bitter finish does not.
Sea Sugar™ is designed to deliver a smooth sweet taste without a bitter aftertaste. Explore a different way to bring sweetness to your favorite drinks and recipes.
The origin is part
of the story.
Marine biology provides ingredients with distinctive structures. Ingredient selection, processing and formulation bring that complexity into a practical everyday product.
Start small.
Taste. Adjust.
Sea Sugar™ is highly concentrated, so it is not measured like conventional sugar. Start with a tiny pinch, taste and add a little more if needed. Use tested recipes for baking, where sugar can also provide volume and texture.
A closer look beneath the surface
The ocean inspired it.
Your kitchen is where
you discover it.
A tiny pinch in yogurt. A little sweetness in a smoothie. A new ingredient in a familiar routine. Sea Sugar™ brings marine inspiration into everyday life.
Inside the formulation
Different ingredients.
Distinct roles.
Sea Sugar™ brings together marine ingredients and other naturally occurring compounds. Their origins and functions are different, and those differences matter.
Marine minerals
Lithothamnion calcareum
A mineral-rich red alga associated with naturally occurring calcium and magnesium in an algal matrix.
Blue spirulina
Phycocyanin
A naturally occurring blue pigment associated with spirulina. An ingredient with a distinctive visual identity.
Trehalose
Non-reducing disaccharide
A carbohydrate found in different organisms and researched for protein stability and cellular processes.
Concentrated sweetness
Thaumatin
An intensely sweet protein originally obtained from the katemfe fruit, Thaumatococcus daniellii.
Science, with context
Curious about the science?
Go straight to the sources.
Our research library brings together original references on trehalose, phycocyanin, algal mineral preparations and thaumatin. Explore the ingredients behind the formulation at your own pace.
Research on an individual ingredient is different from research on the finished product. We keep that distinction visible.
