Allulose Powder – NEXWEET

Product Overview

Allulose Powder – Nexweet is a low-calorie sweetener derived from natural sources such as corn or fructose. It delivers the taste and functionality of sugar with only a fraction of the calories — approximately 90–95 % fewer than sucrose. Allulose browns and caramelises like regular sugar, making it a versatile, clean-label substitute for reducing sugar content in bakery, confectionery, beverage, and dairy applications.

Applications in Food Production

• Bakery & Confectionery: Replaces sugar in cookies, cakes, muffins, and energy bars. Provides browning and caramelisation similar to sucrose. Reduces total sugar and calorie content without altering taste.
  
• Beverages & Syrups: Ideal for low-sugar soft drinks, fruit beverages, and flavoured waters. Dissolves easily and contributes a clean sweetness with minimal glycaemic response.
  
• Dairy & Frozen Desserts: Improves texture and sweetness in ice creams, yoghurts, and milk-based desserts. Prevents ice-crystal formation and maintains smooth mouthfeel.
  
• Health & Nutritional Products: Used in keto, diabetic, and low-carb formulations. Supports “no added sugar” claims while maintaining palatability.
• Sauces, Fillings & Spreads: Balances sweetness and viscosity in fruit fillings, jams, and syrups. Enhances spreadability and moisture retention.
• Snacks & Ready-to-Eat Foods: Adds bulk and mild sweetness without spiking blood glucose. Excellent for granola clusters, cereals, and baked snack coatings.
