Non-GMO crystalline fructose
- What Is It Made Of?
We use only Non-GMO crystalline fructose.
Features & Benefits
- Food Ingredients Features
- How Is It Made?
- Crystalline fructose is created using the same manufacturing processes as sugar cane or sugar beets. After undergoing a purification, filtration and crystallization process, the result is crystallized fructose.
- Wherein, continuing to refine that same material, will later yield the undesirable high fructose corn syrup, which has a significantly higher glycemic index than crystalline fructose.

- How Do I Use It?
- You can use it right away, as an easy substitute for sugar in coffee or tea. There are 96 servings (teaspoon size) in our 1 pound bag! Remember, you'll only need half as much as regular sugar.
- FruSweet dissolves instantly in any hot or cold beverage -- just pour and stir!
- When baking, replaces table sugar about 2 for 1 (2 cups of table sugar = appx.1 cup of FruSweet).
- Crystalline fructose has the browning and caramelizing features cooks look for in baking, making it an excellent replacement for sugar when baking.

Safety & Health
- Health and Dietary Information
- Crystalline fructose should not be confused with high fructose corn syrup, which can contain less than 10% fructose. Our crystalline fructose has one of the lowest glycemic indexes of any food, with a rating of only 20, compared to 31 for skim milk, and 59 for sucrose (ordinary table sugar).
- This means that 1 ounce of fructose raises your blood sugar only about 1/3 as much as an ounce of sucrose, and it releases only about 1/3 as much insulin. A great choice for those seeking to minimize glycemic impact, and those seeking the benefit of a low-carb sweetening option.
