Glucose-Fructose Syrup
Glucose-Fructose Syrup is a highly refined and concentrated solution of fructose, dextrose, maltose and higher saccharides. It is obtained by acid or enzymatic hydrolysis of corn or wheat starch. When it is made from corn, it is often called High Fructose Corn Syrup (HFCS). Thanks to its sweet taste, it is used as a sugar substitute.
Technical aspects
Glucose-Fructose Syrup is a transparent, water-like to pale yellow, viscous liquid with a sweet taste. Because it is in the form of syrup rather than granules, it does not crystallize, provides good moisture content, and is easy to transport or store. In the food industry, it serves as a flavor stabilizer, makes products moister, adds shine, and provides better stability and longer shelf life.
