Sorbitol :Low calorie sweetner Sorbitol is good taste and low calorie sweetner, it is anti-cariogenic and good for producing all kinds of low calorie, low sugar and low fat products.Sorbitol is used as sweetener in many kinds of products, it is also good moisturizer and stabilizer besides offering sweet taste. Sorbitol has 60% sweet taste and 2/3 calorie as sucrose, being used in the food industry for more than half century, and also other industries like medicine and cosmetic. Advantages of SorbitolSorbitol is used as moisturizer in many product, and can be added to in confectionery, bakery foods and chocolate, to well avoid food getting dry or hard by its moisture & stable capacity.Sorbitol is very stable and not active in the chemical reactions, and will not have Maillard Browning Reaction when get heating. Sorbitol is good to produce biscuit with bright color and no need to worry about browning color, and also is good to mix used with other additives like sucrose, gel, protein and vegetable fat. And Sorbitol can be used in many other product like gum, confectionery, frozen dessert, biscuit, cake, sugar-coat, and also some oral hygiene products like toothpaste, mouthwash and etc.Sorbitol Character* Good sweetener * 1/3 less calorie than sucrose (2.6 cal/g) * Good moisturizer, stabilizer and anti-crystallization agent * Can be widely used in many kinds of food, including sugar-free confectionery, gums, frozen dessert, bakery food and etc. * Anti-cariogenic * Can be used to add sweet for diabetic.
