Isomalt
Isomalt is a bulk sugar alcohol sweetener derived from sucrose and widely used in sugar-free and reduced-sugar products. It provides about half the sweetness of sugar while offering excellent stability and a clean taste profile.
What makes isomalt especially valuable is its very low hygroscopicity, meaning it resists moisture absorption. This property allows products to remain dry, glossy, and stable over time. Isomalt also has high heat stability, making it suitable for demanding confectionery processes such as boiling, molding, and pulling.
