Brazzein is a naturally occurring sweet protein found in the oubli fruit. It tastes very sweet at micro-doses, so a tiny drop can match the sweetness of a teaspoon of sugar, without adding calories or carbs. You can think of Brazza as the healthier, better-tasting protein alternative to stevia.

Brazza is a natural protein recognized as safe by the FDA and the European Food Safety Agency.

It is digested to amino acids like any other protein, making it more GI-friendly than sugar alcohols like erythritol. It also does not disrupt the gut microbiome, unlike chemical sweeteners, making it a safer and better choice than any other sugar substitute.

Our drops are formulated for everyday use, made in food-grade conditions, and we only source our ingredients from manufacturers with FDA GRAS approval on file.

In general, yes. As with any protein, very rare protein sensitivities are possible. People with known protein allergies or a history of anaphylaxis may want to begin by using a small amount; discontinue use in the unlikely event of a reaction.

Yes. Brazza adds no digestible carbs at use levels, so it does not spike blood glucose. As a gut-microbiome-friendly protein, it is also superior to chemical sweeteners that actually induce insulin responses by disrupting the gut flora.

That said, this product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent diabetes or any other disease.

Cutting sugar from our diet is one of the simplest ways to support long-term health and slow down the aging process. Replacing sugar with Brazza reduces daily sugar consumption. This in turn helps to reduce over time the formation of sugar-related metabolic byproducts (like “AGEs”) that are linked to aging. It’s not a medical treatment, just a practical, sustainable swap that compounds daily.

Easy: 1 drop ≈ 1 teaspoon of sugar (taste varies by person and drink).
Hot drinks (6-8 oz): begin with 3 drops; add as many drops as you like, to taste.
Iced drinks: cold may mute sweetness; add an extra drop.
Your Own Recipes: great for smoothies, tiramisu, yogurt, and sauces. For baking (where sugar adds bulk), pair with a low-glycemic bulking agent (e.g. corn fiber).

Brazzein has a characteristic sweetness quite distinct from sugar and other sweeteners. Try it and see!

Thaumatin has a flavor profile more similar to sugar's, but it too has its own characteristic taste.

Like with any other sugar substitute, use the minimum effective dose to sweeten without adding too many off-flavors.

Yes—0 kcal, 0 g sugar, 0 g carbs per serving.

Brazza is the most heat-tolerant sweet protein known. Add it to hot coffee or tea as you would sugar. For baking (>300F/150C), it can withstand the process if the heat is not extreme and not too long (no more than 30-45 minutes).

We recommend to store Brazza Drops long-term in the fridge (due to the minimal preservatives used). That said, it will survive just fine at room temperature for a day or two. Keep away from direct sunlight.
