Isomalt is a crystalline sweetener with a white color that dissolves easily in water. Its sweetness reaches about 50% of that of sugar, and in structure and appearance it closely resembles sugar, making it a convenient substitute in many recipes.
Flavor and characteristics
It has a mild, sweet taste without the characteristic metallic aftertaste of some other sweeteners. Its main advantage is heat stability, since it caramelizes on heating without losing its shape and volume.
How to use it
Due to its ability to caramelize and hold a given shape, isomalt is suitable for making decorative elements in confectionery, such as sugar figurines, threads, and glazes. It can also be used as a sugar substitute in hot drinks and desserts.
As a sweetener, a daily intake of up to 50 g is recommended for adults and up to 25 g for children up to 14 years of age. A larger amount may increase intestinal peristalsis.
Storage
Store in a dry, cool place, tightly sealed.
Packaging
Available in a 500 g pack.
