Crystalline Fructose
Fructose
is the sweetest of all naturally occurring sugars. It is a
major constituent of many fruits, vegetables, honey, sucrose
and high fructose corn syrup (HFCS). A pure form of fructose
is produced by Tate & Lyle under the name Krystar®*
crystalline fructose, and is available in both liquid and
crystalline forms.
Some of the benefits of Krystar® crystalline
fructose include increased sweetness, flavor enhancement,
sweetness synergerism
and humectancy while providing a clear, light mouthfeel.
Krystar® crystalline
fructose can be used in a wide variety of applications including:
powdered beverages, sports drinks,
cereal coatings, confections, baked goods, nutrition bars and
reduced
calorie foods and beverages.

Krystar® Liquid Fructose
Product Description
Krystar® liquid fructose is
99.5+% pure fructose (dsb). It is produced by dissolving
crystalline fructose to yield a clear, colorless liquid
that is intensely sweet.
Fructose is the sweetest of
the naturally occurring sugars, and as produced by
Tate & Lyle as Krystar® liquid fructose, this
sweetness is available in convenient liquid form. It
is ideal for wet process applications requiring
a high degree of sweetness and/or reduced caloric content, since by virtue of
its sweetness, less is needed to achieve sweetness parity.
Krystar® liquid fructose meets all standards set by the National Soft Drink
Association, including microbiological and sediment limits. |

beverages
