Applications of Crystalline Fructose in Child Food
What is Crystalline Fructose?
Natural Sweetness for Child Nutrition
Crystalline fructose is a natural sugar produced through enzymatic conversion, purification, and crystallization from corn starch or sucrose. As a structural isomer of glucose, it is the sweetest natural sugar in nature. It is widely found in honey and fruits such as apples and strawberries, appearing as white crystalline powder.
Its unique molecular structure provides functional advantages, making it an indispensable raw material in innovative baking. Crystalline fructose is approximately 1.2-1.8 times sweeter than sucrose, allowing manufacturers to reduce total sugar content while maintaining rich flavor, perfectly catering to the clean label and health-conscious market.
Unlike artificial sweeteners, crystalline fructose provides natural sweetness with clean taste profiles, making it perfect for clean label formulations that consumers trust and prefer for Child nutrition.
