Jerusalem Artichoke Inulin Syrup

INULIN SYRUP

(FRUCTO-OLIGOSACCHARIDE)

Our inulin syrup is a amber viscous liquid,also called Liquid fructo-oligosaccharide(FOS) or Liquid inulin,it is extracted from Jerusalem artichoke tuber by a natural process .It consisting of short-chain inulin

(FOS) molecules (DP 2-10),glucose,fructose and sucrose.It is a highly functional sweet syrup which can effectively replace sugar and sugar alcohols (polyols) in reduced sugar/low calorie/low glycemic index (GI) food applications, while providing health-promoting benefits,and it offers similar sweetness (65%, vs sucrose: 100%).

As a healthy sugar/sugar alcohol alternative, inulin syrup also provides functional benefits of fruit flavor enhancement,synergy with high intensity sweeteners, and good humectancy for many foods such as bars, confections, fruit preparations, beverages, cereals, and sweet baked goods.It is also used to completely replace maltitol syrup in the center filling of a reduced sugar chocolate candy bar,and It provides benefits of reduced laxative effect, fiber enrichment, and good humectancy.
