Erythritol Powder

About the detailed introduction of erythritol?

Erythritol powder is a bulk sweetener that is a four-carbon sugar alcohol. Erythritol is widely found in nature. It can be produced by fermentation of glucose. It has a refreshing sweet taste, is not easy to absorb, is stable at high temperature, and is stable in a wide pH range. It has a mild cooling sensation when dissolved in the mouth, and is suitable for a variety of foods.

It is a zero-calorie, great-tasting bulk sweetener for a variety of sugar-free and reduced-calorie foods and beverages. It has long been a part of the human diet, and erythritol is found in fruits and other foods. Erythritol has high digestive tolerance and does not cause glycemic response, so it is suitable for diabetics, and it does not promote tooth decay. It is a polyol (sugar alcohol) found naturally in fruits such as pears, melons and grapes, but also in other foods such as mushrooms and in wine, soy sauce and cheese. It is white crystalline powder, its sweetness is pure and refreshing, and its taste is close to that of sucrose. It is about 70% as sweet as sucrose; it has good fluidity because it is not hygroscopic. Erythritol has a calorific value of 0 calories per gram and a high digestive tolerance that distinguishes it from other polyols. It can be quickly absorbed by the small intestine and quickly digested by the body within 24 hours, so when consuming foods containing erythritol, it is unlikely to cause laxative side effects that may occur when excessive intake of polyols occurs.

What are the benefits?

Zero calories: In the United States, Europe and Japan, the calories of erythritol on food labels are 0 calories per gram. The reason why the calorific value is zero is that it will not be metabolized in its unique absorption and excretion process. As such, it is the only zero-calorie bulk sweetener eligible for "reduced-calorie" and "light" products that require at least 25% fewer calories than the standard formula.

High digestive tolerance: rapidly absorbed by the small intestine, and studies have shown that it does not ferment in the human body. Therefore, gas and laxative side effects after eating foods that contain high amounts of erythritol are rare. Adults can well tolerate a daily intake of 1 g/kg body weight of erythritol from a variety of food and beverage sources.

Suitable for Diabetics: It has been shown in single-dose and 14-day clinical studies to not affect blood sugar or insulin levels. Clinical studies in people with diabetes have concluded that it may be safe to replace sucrose with erythritol in foods tailored for people with diabetes. Of course, people with diabetes should consider the impact of other ingredients in food on their diet.

Does not promote tooth decay: Unlike other polyols, it is safe for teeth and is not metabolized by oral bacteria, which break down sugars and starches to produce acids that can lead to enamel loss or tooth decay. It is therefore non-cariogenic. Replacing sugars with polyols such as erythritol and their utility in a comprehensive program that includes good oral hygiene has been recognized by scientists and regulators.

Features

1. Low sweetness: the sweetness is only 60%-70% of that of sucrose. It has a refreshing taste in the mouth, pure taste, and no after-bitterness. It can be used in combination with high-intensity sweeteners to suppress the bad flavor of high-intensity sweeteners.
2. High stability: It is very stable to acid and heat, and has high acid and alkali resistance. It will not decompose and change below 200 ℃, and will not change color due to Maillard reaction.
3. High heat of dissolution: Erythritol powder has a heat-absorbing effect when dissolved in water. The heat of dissolution is only 97.4kJ/kg, which is higher than that of glucose and sorbitol. It has a refreshing feeling when eaten.
4. Solubility: The solubility of erythritol at 25°C is 37% (W/W). As the temperature increases, the solubility increases, and it is not easy to crystallize and precipitate crystals.
5. Low hygroscopicity: It is very easy to crystallize, but it will not absorb moisture in a 90% humidity environment, and it is easy to crush to obtain a powder product, which can be used on the surface of food to prevent food from deteriorating due to moisture absorption.

What foods can it be applied to?

Drinks
In recent years, erythritol powder has been used in the development of new zero-calorie and low-calorie beverages. It can increase the sweetness, body and smoothness of drinks, while reducing bitterness, and can also mask other odors to enhance the flavor of drinks.

Baked goods

With the improvement of the consumption level of modern consumers and the enhancement of health awareness, this kind of "high sugar, high fat and high calorie" products can no longer meet the needs of consumers. The bakery industry is also developing towards nutrition, health, functionality, and low calorie, and low-energy, sugar-free baked goods have emerged under this trend.
Erythritol is a proven ingredient for higher quality functional or low-calorie bakery products. Not only can it replace sucrose physically and chemically, but it can also bring health benefits, and baked products using erythritol have better structural compactness and softness than products that also use sucrose as raw materials.

The erythritol used in baked goods should preferably be powdered or crystallized with a fine particle size (<200μm), and the fine particles will bring a smooth and round taste to the product.

Candy

Erythritol has the characteristics of good thermal stability and low hygroscopicity. It can be operated in an environment above 80°C to shorten the processing time. At the same time, the heating temperature in the chocolate production process using erythritol is higher than that of the traditional one. This is conducive to promoting the production of flavor. Erythritol can easily replace sucrose in the product, reduce the energy of chocolate by 34%, and endow the product with a cool taste and non-cariogenic characteristics. Due to its low hygroscopicity, it also helps to overcome the blooming phenomenon of other sugars when making chocolate. Erythritol can be used to produce various candies with good quality, and the texture and shelf life of the products are exactly the same as those of traditional products.
