Maltitol is a versatile sugar alcohol widely used as a sweetening agent across various industries. It is derived from the hydrogenation of maltose and exhibits about 75-90% of the sweetness of sucrose, making it a popular choice for calorie-conscious applications. With its low glycemic index, maltitol serves as an excellent sugar substitute for diabetic-friendly foods and beverages, offering both sweetness and stability. Its non-crystallizing property enhances the texture of confections, such as chocolates and candies, providing a smooth, creamy mouthfeel. Beyond confectionery, maltitol is also utilized in baked goods, dairy products, and oral hygiene products, where it contributes to reduced sugar formulations without compromising taste. This ingredient ensures a delightful sweetness while supporting healthier consumer choices.
