What is Palatinose™?

Palatinose™ is a naturally sourced smart carbohydrate, providing full carbohydrate energy (4kcal/g) in a more balanced way thanks to its low-glycaemic profile.  By improving fat oxidation during physical activity, it prolongs energy supply. In addition, it is gentle on teeth.

PalatinoseTM (isomaltulose) is purely based on sucrose from sugar beet. It is 100 % vegan, kosher, halal and non-GMO.  It has a mild, natural sweetness, without any aftertaste. It replaces sucrose on a 1:1 scale and can easily be combined with other sweeteners to achieve a unique and tailored sweetness profile.

Perfect free-flowing powder for drinks & blends.

Thanks to its low hygroscopicity, Palatinose™ is a free-flowing powder that is perfect in powder drinks and blends. It even shows reduced water absorption in blends with other sugars and therefore significantly minimises the risk of caking and lumping.

Helps to improve the stability for beverages.

Palatinose™ has a much higher acid and process stability than sucrose, highly relevant in isotonic sports drinks that tend to have a pH higher than 3. This functional carb supports maintained osmolality helps create refreshing and rehydrating isotonic, hypo and hypertonic beverages.

Longer shelf life of glazed donuts & other bakery.

Due to a difference in water activity, donut crumbs tend to dry out and the topping becomes sticky over time. This can be countered by controlling water migration between both layers. Water activity of the glaze can be adapted to resemble that of the baked good by using Palatinose™. This safeguards the original softness and freshness of prevents stickiness of the glazing; for freshly or packed donuts with extended shelf-life.
