Isomalt or Isomaltitol, the foreign registered name is Isomalt; the foreign trade name is Palatinit. It is a hydrogenated product of isomaltulose, which can be obtained by isomerization of sucrose as a raw material. The sweetness is 42% of sucrose, the sweetness is pure, does not cause dental caries, the hydrolysis rate is slower than that of sucrose, the properties are stable, it can be recrystallized and has low moisture absorption, so it can be used in the production of hard candies. However, the solubility is only half of that of sucrose. When it is used in jam and jelly products, it will crystallize. It may be used as a non-intestinal energy source for diabetic or other disease patients in clinical applications. Allergic reactions are occasionally encountered.
Because isomalt has many excellent properties, it is suitable for products produced by ordinary production equipment. On the other hand, isomalt has a pure taste like sucrose, without bad aftertaste and peculiar taste. It can synergize with strong sweeteners and cover up the latter's bad aftertaste and peculiar taste, with low moisture absorption and high stability. , Low energy, non-caries, etc., so it is a perfect sugar substitute. At present, isomalt has been widely used in the production of various foods: hard candy and soft candy, chewing gum, chocolate, jelly, refreshing drinks, ice cream, baked products and pressed tablets.
Hard candy: Because of the low water absorption of isomalt, it will not stick together when producing punched, filled, glued or cast hard candy, and it is not easy to cold flow. The products produced can be packed in bulk There is no need to heat seal and package one by one, which can greatly reduce the cost and make the product have a longer price period.
