Detailed Product Description

Applicationg Range

High Maltose Powder prolongs the shelf life of baked goodes. Since it works better than other sugars to prevent starch retrogradation, it stabilizes natural fruit colors and flavors and enhaances flavors in food systems which otherwise may be dominatied by the sweetness of sucrose . High maltose powder is an ideal complement to sucrose yet retains very similar bulking and texture building qualities with one-third the sweetness. The possibility of blending gives the food technician more flexibility and freedom in matching sweetness and flavor profiles in his or her food systems while maintaining a given mouthfeel.

Like sucrose, High Maltose Powder is a disaccharide consisting of two glucose molccules, Therefore it is defined as a food , not as an additive. No additive petitions have been required nor are there restrictions on categories of use. It has processing characteristics similar to sucrose in terms of saccharimetric value, viscosity, osmotic pressure,gel strength,low water activity,etc. In additiong there are some advantages, which are indicated in the applications mentioned below as well as in the accompanying data.
