Maltitol is a novel sugar substitute in the food industry, garnering widespread attention due to its low-calorie content, non-cariogenic properties, and resistance to digestion.

 

Derived from high-quality corn starch, maltitol is produced through enzymatic liquefaction, saccharification, hydrogenation, and refining, resulting in a crystalline powder or colorless liquid. The hydrogenated crystalline maltitol has an identical chemical structure to that found in nature, making it a natural and safe functional food ingredient.

Benefits of Using Maltitol

Natural Sweetness: Maltitol has a sweetness of 80%-90% that of sucrose, with a mild flavor and no irritation.


No Maillard Reaction: Maltitol does not have free sugar groups and will not undergo the Maillard reaction when heated with amino acids or proteins.


Extends Shelf Life: Maltitol is a non-fermentable sugar, which can extend the shelf life of food products.


Non-cariogenic: Maltitol is not an acid-producing substrate and is not easily utilized by oral bacteria to form acids, preventing tooth decay.


Low Calories: Maltitol has a low absorption rate in the human body.

 

What is Maltitol Used For

Candies: Utilizing maltitol's moisture retention, anti-crystallization properties, ability to retain flavors and fragrances, and its non-Maillard reaction characteristics. Maltitols are used to make high-quality candies.


Beverages: Maltitol can directly replace sucrose or be compounded with other sugar alcohols in beverages to enhance taste and stability while reducing calories.


Desserts: Biscuits and bread made with maltitol are softer and tastier than those made with sucrose, and they have fewer calories.


Frozen Foods: The use of maltitol in ice cream can make the product smooth and creamy, sweet and delicious, and extend its shelf life.
