Xylitol Foodstuff Line

According to a survey of 23 countries on death causes, the WHO called for giving up sugar. Excessive consumption of sugar is very likely to cause obesity, cardiovascular disease and diabetes, which, in turn, are major elements leading to shorter life span. Health foods are becoming a hit worldwide that is drawing more and more attention from consumers and developers. Function food made with xylitol instead of cane sugar has the advantages of good safety, taste, stability, and water-solubility, thus being more and more marketable.

With the advantages above, Xylitol is used as the major ingredient of  Health Candy and  Teeth Healthy Candy.
I. About our Xylitol 
Xylitol, namely pentose alcohol, is white crystal or crystal powder without odor. It tastes cool with the same saccharinity as that in cane sugar and the same calorific power with glucose.

II. Characters of our Xylitol
1. No browning reaction when heated.
When heated, cane sugar is likely to react with amino acid and turn brown. It ' s a major headache for most food processing. As xylitol doesn ' t have aldehyde group or ketone group in its structure and won ' t produce browning reaction when heated, it is therefore suitable for use in roasted foods with different tastes.
2. Resistant to yeast as a poor culture medium for microorganisms.
Due to this feature, it allows longer preservation time for food made with xylitol. For example, some customers prefer fruit jam with less sugar, but such fruit jam is more likely to become deteriorate after the container is opened. If xylitol is used instead of cane sugar, the fruit jam can be preserved for longer time without necessity to add any artificial preservative agent.


3. Moisture absorptive. 
Our Xylitol absorbs moisture, therefore, it ' s more suitable to soft cookies than cane sugar for lasting softness. For example, cake and bread made with xylitol tend to maintain softness for long time.
4. Cool feeling
Xylitol has a capacity of heat solution as 10 times higher than that of cane sugar, in other words, when xylitol is dissolved, it tends to absorb large amount of heat, and makes the medium cooler. Food made with xylitol has a cool taste, augmenting the flavor of peppermint or spearmint.
