FRUCTOSE
♦ Specification: Net weight 25 kg/paper bag
♦ Description: Fructose is a sweet white crystalline powder, a simple sugar that the body can use for energy. Because this type of sugar does not raise blood sugar levels, it was sometimes thought to be a substitute for cane sugar (saccharose sugar).
♦ Application: Fructose has a sweet taste, its sweetness is 1.2 times that of cane sugar, and increases to 1.8 times at lower temperatures. It is used in food and beverages
♦ Storage: Keep in a cool and dry place
♦ Fructose production process (reference):
- A Fructose (levulose) molecule has six carbon atoms, twelve hydrogen atoms, and six oxygen atoms that are commonly found in nature. It is made from corn. Take the corn and grind it into cornmeal. Then a starch-degrading enzyme is added, which turns the starch into glucose. Glucose is then converted to Fructose. It undergoes crystallization, isomerization and dehydration.
- In the food industry it is used as a sugar substitute. It can also be used in carbonated beverages as a sweetener or in combination with sugar and the artificial sweetener saccharin. It is used to make bread, cakes, ice cream, marmalade, chocolate, soft drinks, etc
