Our powder is a sugar-free alternative based on beetroot sugar, with excellent thermal stability up to 150°C and a caloric value of only 2.0 kcal/g. We meet your formulation requirements in beverage, confectionery and healthcare applications with quick stock availability and batch consistency of >99.5% purity.

Why Choose Our Powdered Isomalt?

You want a sweetener that provides both great health benefits and best in class functionality. Our powder overcomes three important formulation problems at the same time.

First, it stops tooth decay. This substance is not fermented by oral bacteria like regular sugars. Tooth-friendly claims on your products can help you appeal to health-conscious consumers.

Secondly, it has better thermal stability. The disaccharide structure is stable to high temperature processing conditions. “You can confidently formulate hard candies, baked goods and chocolates.”

Third, it has a low glycaemic response. The formulations work well for diabetic-friendly and weight-management product lines, having minimal effects on blood glucose levels.

Product Specifications

Diverse Application Scenarios

Confectionery Manufacturing: Produce high-quality sugar-free hard candies, lollipops and toffees with Powdered Isomalt. The powder has excellent moldability and slow crystallisation rate, ensuring smooth texture and long-term shelf stability.

Applications in Pharmaceuticals: As an excipient in chewable tablets and lozenges. The pleasant mouthfeel and compressibility improve patient compliance without impacting active ingredients.

Functional Beverages: Formulate low calorie beverages with clean sweetness profiles. Its high solubility allows it to distribute evenly and provide clarity, in hot or cold applications.

Bakery Products: Make cookies and pastries with less sugar. Bulking qualities provided desirable mouthfeel while decreasing total calories by 40-50%.

Dietary Supplements: Mix into protein bars and nutritional powders. The low hygroscopicity minimises clumping and prolongs product freshness.

FAQ

Q: What is the difference between the product and conventional sugar in formulations?

A: The product is about half as sweet as sucrose and has only 2.0 kcal/g versus 4.0 kcal/g. It does not promote dental cavities and has little effect on blood sugar levels. You will have to adjust sweetness levels and you might use it with high intensity sweeteners to get similar taste profiles.

Q: Is this ingredient responsible for digestive upset like other polyols?

A: Like other sugar alcohols, too much of it might have a laxative effect. Individual tolerances vary, but are generally in the range of 30-50g per day. We recommend gradual introduction in formulations and appropriate labelling of products.

Q: Can this be used to make chocolate?

A: Yes. It performs very well in chocolate applications, with a smooth texture and resistance to sugar bloom. The melting profile is similar to sucrose based formulations but you may have to tweak the parameters for tempering a little bit.

Q: What's your minimum order quantity and delivery timeline?

A: Our MOQ is typically one metric ton, though we accommodate smaller trial orders for qualified R&D projects. Standard delivery takes 10-15 days after order confirmation, with expedited options available for urgent requirements.

Q: Do you provide technical documentation for regulatory submissions?

A: Yes. We supply comprehensive documentation including Certificates of Analysis, allergen statements, GMO declarations, and regulatory compliance letters suitable for FDA, EFSA, and other international submissions.
