Ingredients and Appearance:
This natural polyol sweetener is made from corn starch, wheat starch, and other raw materials through enzymatic hydrolysis, hydrogenation, and refining (no crystallization step is required). No sugars, such as sucrose and glucose, are added during the production process. It is a clear, colorless to light yellow liquid, odorless, and mildly sweet (sweeter than sucrose). It has a smooth taste with no aftertaste, good flowability, and no crystal particles.
Basic Properties:
It is low in calories (approximately 2.1 kcal per gram), has excellent water solubility (completely miscible with water and most liquid ingredients in its liquid state), and has no added sugar. It is also highly stable in high temperatures and acidic environments, making it suitable for processing liquid or semi-liquid sugar-free/low-calorie products such as sugar-free beverages, liquid sauces, and frozen drinks. As a functional sweetener, it offers benefits such as low blood sugar content, anti-caries properties, and excellent moisturizing properties. It is particularly suitable for food applications where fluidity and miscibility are critical.
Functional Characteristics:
Excellent Processing Adaptability: Highly heat-resistant, resists decomposition during high-temperature sterilization and cooking. The liquid form requires no dissolution step and can be directly mixed with juices, milk, sauces, and other ingredients, simplifying the production process and making it suitable for continuous liquid product processing.
Mild Flavor and Good Compatibility: Mild sweetness (similar to crystalline maltitol), with no cooling sensation or aftertaste, it is highly compatible with liquid ingredients such as fruit juices, dairy products, and plant proteins, without affecting the product’s original flavor and balancing the sourness of the ingredients.
Sugar-Free and Low-Calorie, Suitable for Sugar Control Needs: Zero added sugar, metabolism is not dependent on insulin, and the glycemic index (GI) is extremely low, making it suitable for long-term consumption by diabetics, those trying to lose weight, and those trying to control their sugar intake. A daily intake of up to 100 grams (based on solids) does not cause gastrointestinal discomfort (excessive intake may cause mild bloating).
Aids in sugar control, suitable for special applications: As a liquid sweetener to replace sucrose, it can reduce refined sugar intake without causing blood sugar fluctuations. It is particularly suitable for products with strict sugar control requirements, such as liquid health foods and low-sugar beverages.
Anti-caries and oral-friendly: It is not metabolized by oral cariogenic bacteria to produce acid, inhibits plaque formation, and is mildly irritating to teeth, making it suitable for products such as children’s liquid beverages and oral care solutions.
Moisturizing and texture-modifying: Its liquid state retains more moisture than its crystalline state, preventing hardening caused by water loss in liquid or semi-liquid products (such as sauces and jams), maintaining a smooth texture, and extending shelf life.
Natural and safe, suitable for diverse applications: Derived from starch, it is naturally sourced and highly safe. It can be used in special foods such as infant liquid complementary foods and functional oral solutions, aligning with the natural and healthy consumer trend.
Applications:
Sugar-free beverages:
Sugar-free juices, plant-based protein beverages, and sparkling waters can be mixed directly without affecting clarity, providing a mild sweetness and suitable for low-sugar recipes. · Liquid Dairy Products:
Sugar-free yogurt drinks, low-fat milkshakes, and plant-based milks mix easily without affecting the stability of dairy products, enhancing sweetness without interfering with fermentation.
Sauces and Condiments:
Sugar-free jams, salad dressings, and dressings improve fluidity and mouthfeel, prevent product separation or hardening, and extend shelf life.
Frozen Beverages:
Sugar-free ice cream slurry and popsicle base lower the freezing point, resulting in a smooth and delicate texture and excellent low-temperature stability.
Health Supplements and Specialty Foods:
Sugar-free nutritional oral solutions and infant liquid foods offer a mild sweetness, are low in calories, and are easily digestible, making them suitable for those with allergies.
Baking Mixes:
Cake mixes and bread improvers replace some liquid sugar, maintaining batter fluidity and enhancing the softness of finished products. Functions:
Provides mild sweetness (approximately 75% of sucrose sweetness, replacing liquid sugar to reduce calories)
Does not raise blood sugar levels (low GI, suitable for daily consumption by diabetics)
Prevents dental caries (reduces plaque and protects dental health)
Low calorie content (2.1 kcal per gram, aids weight management)
Moisture retention and fluidity control (maintains liquid product texture for ease of processing)
