Glucose syrup

Glucose syrups and glucose-fructose syrups are nutritional saccharide solutions obtained through starch hydrolysis. Using these syrups offers a number of benefits for processing and products, in addition to time and cost savings.

Suitable ingredient pursuant to Pharmacopoeia.

Benefits for the bakery and pastries sector

  • Shortens dough raising times by facilitating yeast fermentation.
  • Optimises energy and time with lower temperatures and baking times.
  • Helps maintain moisture in products, thereby increasing their shelf life.
  • Enhances the look of products with an even appearance and no breakage.

Benefits for the ice cream and milk derivatives sector

  • Enhances flavour, making ice cream creamier with a better texture.
  • Reduces lactose crystallisation for easier use.

Benefits for the alcoholic beverages sector

  • Helps with fermentation since it’s easier for yeast to digest.
  • Lowers costs when replacing sugar with dextrose syrup.
  • Helps with natural fermentation of beer.

Specifications

Glucose syrup – Depending on the measured dextrose equivalent, the range is 37% to 63%.

Glucose-fructose syrup – Depending on the measured dextrose equivalent, the range is 67% to 96%.

Technical benefits

  • Enhances the flavour of different products.
  • Facilitates fermentation in yeast products, which saves time and costs.
  • Keeps foods fresher longer as it helps retain moisture and freshness, in the case of syrups with reducing sugars.
  • Improves baked product presentation given the toasted colouring acquired when in contact with heat.
  • Helps preserve foods due to its stabilising properties, which helps maintain quality levels irrespective of temperature changes.

Processing benefits

  • Less preparation time for lower labour costs.
  • Energy savings.
  • Easier raw material traceability, storage and control.
  • Increases the unitary use profitability of the product.
  • Reduces losses in the process by achieving a homogeneous product free of impurities.
