Detailed Description

Isomalt is a unique, excellent tasting sugar-free bulk sweetener. Because the same amount of isomalt is used in products as would be used if they were sweetened with sugar, isomalt-containing products have the same appearance and texture as those made with sugar. Discovered in the 1960s, isomalt is made from sucrose and looks much like table sugar. It is white, crystalline and odorless. Isomalt is a mixture of two disaccharide alcohols: gluco-mannitol and gluco-sorbitol.Isomalt has been used in the United States for several years in products such as hard candies, toffees, chewing gum, chocolates, baked goods, nutritional supplements, cough drops and throat lozenges. It has been available in Europe, however, since the early 1980s and is currently used in a wide variety of products in more than 70 countries worldwide. Isomalt offers benefits that suit changing life-styles and contemporary guidelines for healthy diets. It enlarges food choices for the growing number of people who would like to make moderate, but not extreme, improvements in their diet. It is ideal for consumers who want to adopt a healthier lifestyle, as long as foods still taste good. Because of its lower caloric value and other health benefits, isomalt is useful for people who are trying to reduce their total energy intake moderately while still being able to enjoy their favorite desserts, candy, and other sweetened foods occasionally as part of meals or snacks.
