Product Overview
Sorbitol Powder is a naturally occurring polyol (sugar alcohol) produced from high-quality dextrose through hydrogenation and refining. It appears as a white crystalline powder, odorless with a cool, sweet taste. With approximately 60% of the sweetness of sucrose and one-third fewer calories, it serves as an ideal low-calorie sweetener.
Sorbitol has been affirmed as GRAS (Generally Recognized As Safe) by the U.S. FDA and is approved for use by the European Union and numerous countries worldwide, including Australia, Canada, and Japan.

Product Characteristics
• Moderate Sweetness: Approximately 60% as sweet as sucrose with a refreshing cool taste; dissolves endothermically, enhancing the cooling effect in mint candies and refreshing beverages.
• Low Calorie: Provides approximately 2.6 kcal per gram, significantly lower than sucrose.
• Excellent Humectancy: Highly hygroscopic with good moisture-retention properties, helps food products resist changes in moisture content and prevents drying and aging.
• Chemical Stability: Chemically stable, not easily oxidized by air, with excellent heat resistance—does not decompose even at 200°C.
• No Maillard Reaction: Does not react with amino acids or proteins, suitable for food systems where browning is undesirable.
• Good Solubility: Readily soluble in water; solubility at 25°C is 70g/100g solution.
• Non-Cariogenic: Does not promote tooth decay as it is not fermented by oral bacteria.
• Diabetes-Friendly: Glycemic Index (GI) of 9; does not significantly raise blood sugar or insulin levels.
