Allulose

Allulose, also known as D-psicose, is a monosaccharide that occurs naturally in small quantities in some fruits and foods. It has a fraction of the calories of traditional sugars and a low impact on blood sugar levels, emerging as a healthier sweetener alternative in food and beverage applications.

Application

Allulose, is a versatile sugar substitute for healthier, reduced-calorie applications such as beverages, baked goods, confections, dairy products, sauces and dressings, nutritional bars, canned and frozen foods, jams and preservatives, energy/sport drinks, tabletop sweeteners, and more.

Formulation

Allulose acts as a sweetener when added to food and beverage applications but unlike traditional sugars it has minimal effect on blood glucose levels and caloric content. This makes it appealing for diabetics and consumers looking for healthier alternatives. It contains no metallic/bitter aftertaste that is often found in some artificial sweeteners. It also has high solubility in a majority of liquids making it valuable in formulations that require even consistencies.

Stability: Stable under a wide range of processing conditions, including high temperatures used in baking, pasteurization, and sterilization.

Solubility: Highly soluble in water and other liquid-based formulations.
