Maltitol is a sugar alcohol widely used as a low-calorie sweetener in sugar-free and reduced-sugar products. It provides about 70–90% of the sweetness of sugar, making it a popular choice for confectionery, baked goods, and beverages.
In addition to its sweetness, Maltitol mimics the texture and functionality of sugar, offering a smooth, creamy mouthfeel. Its low glycemic index makes it suitable for diabetic-friendly formulations and keto products.
As a versatile and cost-effective alternative to sugar, Maltitol enables the creation of healthier food options without compromising taste or texture.
