What is Organic Isomaltitol Powder?
Organic Isomaltitol Powder is a certified organic, non-GMO sugar alcohol derived from organic beet sugar through enzymatic hydrogenation. With 45-60% of the sweetness of sucrose and 2.0 kcal/g, it offers a zero-glycemic, tooth-friendly solution for sugar-free formulations. Its exceptional heat stability and resistance to crystallization make it ideal for hard candies, baked goods, and coatings. Certified USDA Organic, Non-GMO Project Verified, Kosher, and Halal.
Key Features & Benefits
