Product Overview

Maltitol is a polyol sweetener produced from corn starch. It has a sweet taste similar to sucrose and is commercially supplied in two main forms: crystalline powder and liquid syrup. It is commonly used as a low calorie sugar substitute in food, beverage, supplement and pharmaceutical applications.

Compared with sucrose, maltitol provides fewer calories per gram and will not cause sharp blood glucose spikes. It is a key raw material for sugar-free and reduced-sugar product development.

Compounding Characteristics

Maltitol has good solubility and is easy to incorporate into both aqueous and syrup systems. It shows high stability under normal food processing conditions and is suitable for confectionery, baking and beverage production.

It has a mild sweet taste and does not produce strong aftertaste. Maltitol is compatible with other sweeteners, dietary fibers, starches and gums, making it a flexible ingredient for compound formulations.

Maltitol powder: Free-flowing solid, suitable for dry mixing, tableting and solid formula.

Maltitol syrup: Liquid form, convenient for continuous pumping in liquid systems, strong moisture retention effect.

Main Functions

1.Low calorie sweetener – provides sweetness with lower caloric value than sucrose.

2.Sugar replacement – suitable for sugar-free and reduced-sugar product development.

3.Stable formulation ingredient – supports texture, sweetness and shelf-life performance.

4.Bulk former & humectant – contributes to body, mouthfeel, moisture control in confectionery and baked goods.

Applications

Confectionery & Chocolate: Maltitol powder is widely used for sugar-free chocolate, hard candy and chewing gum. Maltitol syrup is preferred for soft candies and gummy products, helping maintain smooth texture and shelf stability.

Baked Goods: Maltitol syrup is commonly used in cookies, biscuits and cakes as humectant. Maltitol powder can be applied in low-moisture bakery products for sugar replacement.

Food & Beverage: Maltitol syrup fits liquid beverages, sauces and dairy products. Maltitol powder is suitable for solid drink powder blends. Both can act as sugar substitute and texture modifier.

Dietary Supplements & Pharmaceuticals: Maltitol powder serves as excipient, sweetener and bulking agent in tablets and capsules. Maltitol syrup can be used in oral liquid formulations and syrups.
