What is Organic Maltitol Powder?
Organic Maltitol Powder is a certified organic, non-GMO sugar alcohol derived from fermented organic starches (e.g., corn, tapioca). With 90% of the sweetness of sucrose and only 2.4 kcal/g, it serves as a low-glycemic, tooth-friendly sweetener for sugar-free and reduced-calorie products. Unlike artificial sweeteners, it provides bulk and texture similar to sugar, making it perfect for confectionery, baked goods, and functional foods. Certified USDA Organic, Non-GMO Project Verified, Kosher, and Halal.

FAQs
Q: Is organic maltitol powder safe for diabetics?
A: Yes! Its low glycemic index (GI 5) causes minimal blood sugar spikes, making it diabetic-friendly.
Q: How does maltitol compare to erythritol or xylitol?
A: Maltitol has higher solubility and mimics sugar’s texture more closely, but has slightly higher calories.
Q: Can it replace sugar 1:1 in recipes?
A: Use at a 1:1 ratio for sweetness, but reduce liquid content slightly due to maltitol’s hygroscopicity.
Q: Does it cause digestive discomfort?
A: Consumed in excess (>20g/day), it may cause laxative effects—common with sugar alcohols.
Q: Is your maltitol certified organic?
A: Absolutely! It’s USDA and EU Organic certified, with non-GMO verification.
