Products in Texturizers: Nutritive Sweetener

ADM Maltitol Syrup 100 occurs as a clear, colorless, syrupy liquid. It is a water solution of a hydrogenated, partially hydrolyzed starch containing maltitol, sorbitol, and hydrogenated oligosaccharides and polysaccharides. It is miscible with water and glycerin, and slightly miscible with alcohol. It is non-crystallizing and is used as a humectant and texturizing agent in a wide range of products. Since maltitol is very similar to sucrose in sweetness and functionality, it is often used to replace sugars in sugar-free, no sugar-added, and low net carbohydrate products such as nutritional bars, hard candy, soft confections, frozen desserts, and baked sweet goods. It is non-cariogenic and qualifies for the FDA authorized “does not promote tooth decay” health claim.

MALTISWEET® 3145 Maltitol Syrup,NF/FCC - 271051 is a non-crystallizing syrup bulking agent for solution suspension and can act as a humectant, texturing agent, and stabilizing aid. It is non-reactive and non-cariogenic. It typically contains at least 60% maltitol, and it is used as a replacement for sucrose and corn syrup in sugar-free and reduced-sugar applications. Its sweetness and taste are similar to sugar. It meets the requirements of USP/ NF.

HYSTAR® CG Polyglycitol Syrup - 270026, offered by Ingredion, is a clear, colorless syrup with 70% solids content. It is a polyglycitol syrup, also known as hydrogenated starch hydrolysate, that has been specially formulated for cosmetic and personal care applications. This syrup is designed to provide exceptional humectancy and body, making it suitable for use in products such as emollients and shaving creams. Its INCI name is "Hydrogenated Starch Hydrolysate," and it is primarily composed of polyglycitol.

MALTISWEET® 6580 Maltitol Syrup NF/FCC - 271054 is a non-crystallizing 80% solids syrup containing typically at least 60% maltitol. It is used as replacement for sucrose and corn syrup solids in sugar free and reduced sugar applications. MALTISWEET® 6580 is beneficial for use in bakery or confectionery applications requiring higher solids content.

MALTISWEET® IC Maltitol Syrup,NF/FCC - 271052 is a non-crystallizing 3.0 kcal/g syrup developed as a replacement for sucrose and corn syrup solids (css) in no-sugar added and reduced sugar ice cream products. Its molecular weight distribution, similar to sucrose/css results in an ice cream which processes like a full sugar ice cream, with similar sweetness, freeze point and shelf life.

HYSTAR® 5875 Maltitol Syrup NF/FCC - 271351 is a non-crystallizing, 3.0 kcal/g syrup containing at least 55% maltitol. Since maltitol is very similar to sucrose in taste and sweetness, maltitol syrup is often used to replace sucrose and corn syrup solids in sugar free and reduced sugar applications.

MALTISWEET® B Maltitol Syrup,NF/FCC - 271352 is a non-crystallizing, syrup containing a minimum of 50% maltitol. The polyol distribution balances the sweetness and humectancy of maltitol with the stability provided by longer chain polyols. MALTISWEET® B makes it a good choice to balance functionality in food and confectionery systems. Common uses are nutritional bars, hard candy and soft confections (caramel, taffy, enrobed centers).

All natural Pure Maple Flakes have only one ingredient: 100% Pure Maple Syrup. They add sweetness and true maple flavor to food. Maple Flakes bring an interesting crispy texture and explosion of maple flavor.

MALTRIN® Corn Syrup Solids are varied length glucose polymers produced by the controlled hydrolysis of corn starch. They are most often categorized by dextrose equivalence (DE). DE is a measure of reducing power compared to a dextrose standard of 100. The higher the DE, the greater the extent of starch hydrolysis, resulting in a smaller average polymer size. The MALTRIN® product line covers a DE range of 5 to 25.

Pectin is used in plant-based protein food as a vegan emulsifier, gelling agent, thickener, and stabilizer. It is also used as fat or sugar replacer in low-calorie foods.

Marroquin Organics Dextrodyn Organic Dextrose Monohydrate is a water-soluble sweetener that, in addition to contributing to flavor and texture, can increase the browning effects of the Maillard Reaction in baked goods. It also has some preservative qualities to enhance shelf life. Organic dextrose can be used to slightly lower the freezing point of ice cream.

Marroquin Organics Agenabon Organic High Maltose Syrup is a high-viscosity texture stabilizer and sweetener.

Gujarat Ambuja Exports Liquid Sorbitol 70% Solution Crystallizing Sorbitol Solution crystallizing Sorbitol, a polyol (sugar alcohol), is a bulk sweetener found in numerous food products. In addition to providing sweetness, it is an excellent humectant and texturizing agent. Sorbitol is about 60 percent as sweet as sucrose with one-third fewer calories. It has a smooth mouthfeel with a sweet, cool and pleasant taste. It is non-cariogenic and may be useful to people with diabetes. Sorbitol has been safely used in processed foods for almost half a century. It is also used in other products, such as pharmaceuticals and cosmetics.
