NUTRIOSE®: the best choice for healthy, lower-in-sugars fruit preparations with great mouthfeel
Jams, fillings and fruit preparations contain many simple sugars that public health objectives recommend be reduced. Sugars, however, are essential for providing the necessary mouthfeel and therefore require replacing rather than reducing.
Combined with MALTISORB® maltitol, NUTRIOSE® fiber is an easy approach to sugars substitution in many recipes. It also reinforces the health image already conveyed by the product's inherent fruitiness
