Product Specification
Xylitol offers a sweetness similar to sucrose, yet it brings an extraordinary feature to the table – it absorbs a significant amount of heat when dissolved in water, making it the most endothermic of all sugar alcohol sweeteners. This results in a delightful cooling sensation in the mouth when consumed in solid form. Remarkably, Xylitol helps prevent dental caries and does not cause them. Fully metabolizing in the human body, it has an energy value of 10kJ/g, making it an exceptional choice as a caloric energy source for individuals with diabetes.

Xylitol is also ideal for use in products like condensed milk, toffee, and soft candies. It does not cause browning in pastries, though for recipes where browning is desired, adding a small amount of fructose is beneficial. Note that Xylitol can inhibit yeast growth and fermentation, making it unsuitable for fermented foods.
