Product Properties
Maltitol is a sugar alcohol sweetener with a sweetness close to that of sucrose (about 80%-90%), but only half the calories of sucrose. It is made from natural starch sources (such as corn or wheat starch) through hydrolysis and hydrogenation, which meets the needs of modern consumers for a healthy diet. Due to its low-calorie properties, maltitol is widely used in sugar-free or low-sugar foods, such as low-calorie chocolate, functional beverages, baked goods, etc., so that foods can maintain a sweet taste while reducing calories, and are suitable for the dietary needs of people who need to maintain their figure and control sugar intake.
